About The Position

Jerry.ai is seeking Staff Data Scientists to join their Data Science & Analytics team. This team is responsible for driving data insights and informing decision-making across all business units, including product, growth, tech, and operations. The role involves embedding within a core business area (growth, product, AI and automation, strategic partnerships) and owning the analytical function end-to-end.

Strong analytical skills; ability to pull, structure, and interpret data independently.
Track record of owning ambiguous problems and delivering impact.
Clear, persuasive communicator who can influence decisions at the leadership level.
First principles thinker: break ambiguous problems into clear hypotheses before touching data.
Analytically strong (comfortable with SQL or Python).
Direct communicator: can walk a skeptical stakeholder through a complex finding and get buy-in quickly.
Owner: acts like their name is on the door and feels responsible for fixing things, even if outside their swim lane.

Responsibilities

Define the right problems: Understand what business question an analysis is answering and what decision it will inform, pushing back if the question is flawed.
Data and insights: Define metrics, build reports, run analyses, design experiments, and surface data insights that move key metrics.
Drive outcomes: Bring recommendations to counterparts in product, growth, finance, or operations, explaining findings, reasons, and next steps.
