Staff Data Scientist
About The Position
The Data team at Imprint builds the data foundation that powers smarter, faster decision-making. The team develops infrastructure and analytics systems that support both daily operations and long-term strategy, enabling high-quality insights into customer behavior, product performance, and business growth. As a Staff Data Scientist, you will own end-to-end analytical projects that directly influence product decisions, marketing campaigns, and executive strategy. You will apply rigorous statistical methods, experimentation design, and predictive modeling to improve customer lifetime value, accelerate feedback loops, and drive measurable business outcomes. This role blends deep technical expertise with strong business partnership. You will work across the organization—collaborating with product, marketing, and commercial teams—to design experiments, build segmentation frameworks, and translate complex data into clear narratives that shape how Imprint grows. Increasingly, that means building not just analyses but AI-powered systems that can autonomously explore data, generate insights, and operationalize decisions.
