Data Scientist | CK Intelligence

Company Overview

Intuit is the global financial technology platform that powers prosperity for the people and communities we serve. With approximately 100 million customers worldwide using products such as Turbo Tax, Credit Karma, Quick Books, and Mailchimp, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to prosper. We never stop innovating to make that possible.

CK Intelligence is the team building Credit Karma’s AI products. We are developing AI-native experiences across three pillars:
Chat, where members ask anything about their finances;
Agents, which complete multi-step work on a member’s behalf; and Insights, which proactively surface what changed and what to do next.

As part of this transformation, we are looking for a Staff Data Scientist to help shape the strategy and measurement of Credit Karma’s next generation of AI capabilities.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in zero-to-one environments at the intersection of data, experimentation, AI evaluation, storytelling, and business leadership. You will help teams evaluate nascent AI capabilities, identify the strongest signals of member and business value, and translate early learnings into clear strategic direction.

As a Staff Data Scientist supporting CK Intelligence, you will own the measurement strategy and analytical direction for Credit Karma’s AI products across Chat, Agents, and Insights.

You will partner with leaders across Product, Engineering, Design, and Marketing to assess emerging opportunities, shape experimentation strategy, and determine which AI capabilities should be refined, scaled, or deprioritized. Beyond the execution, you will identify, evaluate, and size AI use cases against business value, and own the evaluation that certifies these experiences are good enough to ship.

You will combine rigorous analysis with strong business judgment to bring clarity to ambiguous questions, create compelling performance narratives, and help leadership make confident investment decisions when the model is imperfect.

Identify, evaluate, and size AI use cases against business value, and apply personalization and automation frameworks to shape what gets built. Build and run AI evaluation, including golden datasets and LLM-as-judge calibration, to certify non-deterministic experiences and diagnose where they need to improve.

Develop measurement strategies for AI products where established benchmarks do not yet exist. Define leading indicators, learning milestones, success criteria, and the quality, latency, and reliability bars an experience must clear before it reaches members.

Apply causal inference and counterfactual reasoning to isolate what actually moved a metric. Design and run the experiments and holdouts that resolve whether an AI experience is incremental rather than merely adopted, and own predictive models through their lifecycle.

Frame the right question before any analysis runs, and meaningfully drive AI product strategy. Generate insights and testable hypotheses that alter roadmaps and resource decisions, and define the business metrics and causal levers the business manages to.

Build a deeper understanding of how members discover, adopt, and return to AI experiences, and which jobs-to-be-done actually get solved. Distinguish experiences that create genuine member value from those that shift where existing activity happens.
