Senior Data Scientist

Confido Data Scientist Role

Confido is the AI infrastructure powering modern CPG — the platform that 200+ brands like OLIPOP, Simple Mills, Dr. Squatch, and Tropicana use to run everything from deductions to production planning. Finance, accounting, sales, and operations, unified in one system for the first time.

We're growing 5x year over year with a small team in New York City; the people who join now will shape the product, the culture, and the company itself.

If you want your work on shelves everywhere — and outsized ownership while you build — we'd love to meet you.

• Demand and sales forecasting — improving prediction quality across thousands of noisy, real-world retail time series
• Promotion effectiveness — measuring lift, price elasticity, and cannibalization so brands know which promotions actually pay
• Data quality and evaluation — building the statistical checks that keep our models honest as messy data flows in

• 5+ years of hands-on data science experience with real-world (not benchmark) data
• Strong statistical foundations: regression, time-series methods, experiment design, uncertainty quantification
• Fluent in Python and SQL; comfortable working in a modern data stack (we use Snowflake and dbt)
• You care whether your analysis is right, not just whether it runs — you validate, sanity-check, and communicate uncertainty
• You can explain a model to a non-technical brand operator and defend it to an ML engineer

• Experience with retail, CPG, supply chain, or demand-planning data
• Experience shipping models into production systems (vs. offline analysis only)
• Familiarity with forecasting at scale (hierarchical forecasting, intermittent demand)
