Principal, Data Scientist (Finance) at Datasite

As a Principal Data Scientist, you will serve as the technical lead and primary "engine" of our data science initiatives. Reporting to the Director of Data Science, you will be a high‑level individual contributor responsible for solving our most complex, abstract business problems through advanced mathematical modeling. You will lead the end‑to‑end development of "Data Intelligence Products" — from high‑dimensional forecasting and financial risk engines to ML‑driven revenue optimization. Though this is an IC role, you will set technical standards for the department, mentor junior analysts, and architect our predictive ecosystem.

• Advanced technical execution : lead research, design, and deployment of sophisticated models for time‑series revenue forecasting, unit economics, and profitability.
• Risk & uncertainty quantification : develop advanced statistical tools to predict financial risk and operational volatility, providing probabilistic guardrails.
• Algorithmic innovation : build custom ML solutions beyond standard libraries to address specific nuances of our finance and project data.
• Experimental design : architect rigorous A / B and multivariate testing frameworks to measure causal impact of business decisions.
• Technical architecture & productization : partner with Data Engineering to design the "last mile" of ML deployment, ensuring reliable model operation within Snowflake / dbt.
• Seamless integration : embed model outputs into Power BI semantic models, transforming statistical distributions into actionable business signals.
• Code excellence : establish standards for reproducible research, version control, and model validation.
• Strategic & technical leadership : identify opportunities for ML / AI to drive ROI, stay ahead of industry trends in LLMs, deep learning, and predictive analytics.
• Abstract problem solving : translate high‑level business queries from the Director or C‑suite into mathematically sound project plans.
