- Extensive industry experience applying forecasting in production settings, with demonstrated ownership of forecasting pipelines or decision systems, not just standalone models.
- Expertise in SQL and relational databases, along with strong fluency in programming languages such as R, Python, and Stan.
- Experience building automated modeling workflows, including backtesting frameworks, model validation, scheduled retraining, and performance monitoring.
- Familiarity with version control, reproducibility, and data quality practices required for operating models in regulated or high visibility financial contexts.
- Comfort working across disciplines and making tradeoffs between statistical rigor, engineering complexity, and business constraints.
- Benefits:
- This role may also be eligible for bonus, equity, benefits, and Employee Travel Credits.
