Fundraise Up

23h • Remote

About The Position

We're looking for an ML Engineer with 5+ years of production experience to own a high-impact client intelligence initiative. Following a successful proof-of-concept with an external consultant, we are bringing this project fully in-house. The ultimate goal is to generate a comprehensive, enriched list of all potential clients globally — understanding their product requirements, industry verticals, and overall revenue potential — and deploy a scoring model that feeds directly into our sales pipeline.

This is an end-to-end ownership role. You will build from the ground up: data collection, enrichment, modeling, and production deployment. The project is co-managed by company executives and has a high strategic value.

Requirements

• 5+ years of ML/DS experience solving real product problems
• Strong expertise in ML and mathematical statistics: solid knowledge of classical algorithms (especially gradient boosting) and understanding of modern NLP/LLM approaches
• Proven experience with large-scale web scraping and data pipeline construction
• Metrics-driven mindset: ability to connect ML metrics (ROC-AUC, F1, RMSE) with business metrics (conversion rate, LTV)
• Strong engineering culture: confident in Python with a product-oriented approach; we value clean code, knowledge of design patterns, and solid engineering practices
• Advanced SQL; ability to independently build complex datasets in ClickHouse and work with MongoDB
• MLOps understanding: hands-on experience with experiment tracking and production workflows (Docker, Git, CI/CD)
• Autonomy: ability to break down ambiguous problems, choose the right tech stack, and deliver to production
• Strong English required (C1)

Nice To Haves

• Curiosity and a hypothesis-driven mindset
• Ability to communicate complex analytical concepts to non-technical audiences
• Detail-oriented with a strong sense of ownership
• Comfort working in fast-paced, data-rich environments

Responsibilities

• Build a market intelligence data-base via collecting different types of data (scraping, enrichment), fixing data pipeline and creating an ML model for scoring and analysis of the raw data.
• Design and operate scrapers to extract key signals from nonprofit websites, including products used, payment tools, and industry vertical indicators.
• Develop critical filters such as an "Is this website for fundraising?" binary classifier, alongside other features that distinguish high-potential prospects.
• Source and integrate financial data from international nonprofit registries, as well as third-party signals from SimilarWeb and Facebook.
• Store and structure the enriched dataset in our internal database, making it accessible and useful across the broader team for research and analysis.
• Work closely with the sales team to understand their qualification criteria. Analyze disqualified accounts in Salesforce to identify common exclusion patterns and refine scoring accordingly.
• Deploy the scoring model and own the process of integrating outputs into Salesforce in a clean, maintainable way.
• Build a scraper to monitor existing clients' websites, tracking whether Fundraise Up tools are correctly implemented across their properties.

Benefits

• 31 days off
• 100% paid telemedicine plan
• Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
• English learning courses
• Relevant professional education
• Gym or swimming pool
• Co-working
• Remote working
