As the Staff Data Scientist (VP) on the AI Science team, you will be responsible for designing and deploying production AI systems that power operations, sales, and marketing workflows for consumer-facing businesses across a diversified portfolio.

Reporting to the Executive Director of AI, you will play a critical role in building AI-powered products that deliver measurable business outcomes for senior business stakeholders. You will operate with unusual scope and speed: greenfield problems across multiple businesses, direct access to executive decision-makers, and work that ships to production in weeks, not quarters.

You will operate as a forward-deployed data scientist, embedded directly with the businesses you serve, from problem discovery through production deployment—combining deep expertise in predictive modeling, experimentation, and optimization with hands-on ability to build and ship LLM-powered products  will have direct visibility to senior business stakeholders, translating complex business workflows into working AI systems.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role: you will spend the majority of your time designing, building, and shipping systems, while owning end-to-end delivery and the client relationship for your engagements—helping shape the direction of the organization's AI investments and fostering a culture of rapid iteration, rigorous evaluation, and responsible AI.

What you'll do:

• Own high-impact business problems from ambiguity to production: work directly with operating teams to frame the question, build the models, systems, and applications that answer it, and ship it into daily workflows across operations, sales, and marketing.
• Build predictive models, experimentation frameworks, and optimization systems for marketing, sales, and operations—turning campaign, funnel, and operational data into decision-ready insight for business leaders.
• Build production LLM applications end-to-end: structured extraction from complex documents and customer interaction data, retrieval-augmented generation, multi-step orchestration, and rigorous evaluation.
• Evaluate and champion emerging AI techniques and tools (e.g., agentic workflows, LLM evaluation frameworks, vector databases, RAG architectures) through hands-on prototyping, benchmarking, and iterative deployment.
• Partner with AI researchers, data scientists, and domain experts to translate experimental models into production-ready systems—hardening prototypes for latency, cost, accuracy, and reliability while generalizing solutions across multiple business domains.
• Contribute reusable AI capabilities and methods that serve as building blocks across the organization, partnering with engineering to set the standards for how AI systems are built, evaluated, and maintained.
• Own client relationships end-to-end: collaborate directly with senior business stakeholders to understand workflows, scope and deliver engagements, gather feedback, and iterate on AI products that meet practitioner-grade quality standards.
• Mentor engineers and data scientists through design reviews, code reviews, and hands-on pairing—raising the bar for technical excellence and engineering rigor across the team.
