Ideal candidates are hands-on leaders who thrive in ambiguity, enjoy solving complex challenges, and are passionate about leveraging AI to improve financial accessibility for millions of users. This remote-first environment also encourages continuous learning, innovation, and cross-functional collaboration.

Accountabilities:

  • Lead the strategy, development, and deployment of machine learning solutions focused on growth, marketing efficiency, personalization, and customer lifecycle optimization.
  • Design and implement high-impact models including propensity scoring, churn prediction, customer lifetime value forecasting, targeting, and cross-sell recommendation systems.
  • Partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders in product, marketing, finance, and engineering to align ML initiatives with business objectives and measurable outcomes.
  • Drive experimentation and optimization efforts through A/B testing, uplift modeling, and reward/incentive optimization frameworks to improve ROI and customer engagement.
  • Identify and integrate high-value internal and external data sources to enhance model performance and support scalable marketing workflows.
  • Establish best practices for model development, experimentation, validation, deployment, and monitoring across the organization.
  • Promote adoption of modern AI and machine learning techniques, including the use of LLMs and agentic engineering workflows to improve productivity and operational efficiency.
  • Lead large-scale, cross-functional ML initiatives while mentoring teams and influencing technical direction across the organization.
  • Requirements:

    • 7+ years of experience in machine learning, data science, or related quantitative fields with a strong record of delivering production-grade ML systems.
    • Proven expertise building and scaling marketing-focused machine learning models such as propensity, churn, targeting, personalization, and LTV models.
    • Strong proficiency in Python, SQL, and major machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, or scikit-learn.
    • Experience working with large-scale data platforms and complex datasets in cloud-based or modern analytics environments.
    • Deep understanding of marketing and growth KPIs including CAC, ROAS, conversion, retention, and monetization metrics.
    • Ability to lead highly ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives and translate technical concepts into actionable business strategies.
    • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills with experience collaborating across technical and non-technical teams.
    • Experience in fintech, financial services, or multi-product ecosystems is highly preferred.
    • Familiarity with attribution modeling, marketing measurement, MMM, experimentation frameworks, or Snowflake is a plus.
    • Passion for innovation, continuous improvement, and applying AI technologies to solve real-world customer challenges.
    • Benefits:

      • Competitive compensation package with opportunities for long-term career growth
      • Remote-first work environment with flexible working hours
