Gusto’s Data Science team leverages Gusto’s rich dataset to guide product direction and decision-making. We operate full-stack, conducting analyses, prototyping and deploying predictive models and statistical tools both for internal use and for our customers.
For this role, we are looking for a technical leader (an individual contributor) to drive machine learning and AI in the payment and risk domains. You will build a model-driven risk platform to provide a trusted environment for Gusto Ecosystem.
You’ll be working with an established team and seasoned payments and risk leaders in Engineering, Product, Design, Operation, Identity and Compliance. In this role, you’ll work cross functionally to build Platforms that span the entire breadth of the Payments and Risk Stacks, and use ML and AI to build a world- class, high secure platform that safeguards our users’ activities and money, and ensures unparalleled reliability.
Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:
Build and deploy machine learning models to identify, assess and mitigate risks
Responsible for driving research in the problem space, working with stakeholders to understand model requirements, developing the model from scratch, deploying the model alongside your engineering counterparts, and monitoring and maintaining the model’s performance over time
Partner with Engineering, Design, and Product counterparts in Payment and Risk to solve complex cross functional problems
Develop scalable frameworks and libraries that enhance and contribute to the team’s core analysis and modeling capabilities
Identify new opportunities to leverage data to improve Gusto’s products and help risk management team to understand business requirements and develop tailored solutions
Present and communicate results to stakeholders across the company
Here’s what we're looking for:
8+ years experience conducting statistical analyses on large datasets and deep domain knowledge in machine learning.
This could mean either a MS or PhD in a quantitative field with at least 5 years experience in a business environment, or BS or Data Science Bootcamp graduate with at least 8 years of experience working as a data scientist or a machine learning engineer in a business setting.
Experience applying a variety of statistical and modeling techniques using Python, R or another statistical modeling language, as indicated by familiarity with many of the following techniques - predictive modeling, anomaly detection, ensemble methods, natural language processing (NLP, optional).
Strong programming skills - comfortable with all phases of the data science development process, from initial analysis and model development all the way through to deployment
Excellent communication skills - able to effectively deliver findings and recommendations to non-technical stakeholders in a clear and compelling fashion
PhD or Masters plus equivalent experience in a quantitative field is a plus
Experience in the Fintech industry or risk management domain is a plus
Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $195,000-$241,000/year in New York and $177,00- $219,000/year CAD in Toronto. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
