Faire leverages the power of machine learning and data insights to revolutionize the wholesale industry, enabling local retailers to compete against giants like Amazon and big box stores. Our highly skilled team of Applied AI/ML Scientists specialize in developing algorithmic solutions for notification and recommender systems, advertising attribution, and LTV predictions. We are dedicated to building machine learning models that help our customers thrive.

As a Senior Applied AI/ML Scientist on the Brand Growth team, you will own the modeling and measurement for a set of problems that help Faire acquire and grow the brands on our marketplace, which connects hundreds of thousands of independent brands and retailers. Because our users are businesses, there is a wealth of information about them that ML models can use to personalize their experience, grow their success, and prioritize where we invest.

You will work across structured and unstructured data using methods that range from personalization and recommendations to causal inference, lifetime‑value modeling, and information extraction. You will partner closely with product, engineering, marketing, and sales, and you will drive projects end‑to‑end from framing through production and measurement.

Our team already includes experienced Applied AI/ML Scientists from Uber, Airbnb, Square, Facebook, and Pinterest. Faire will soon be known as a top destination for data scientists and machine learning engineers, and you will help take us there!
