Job Description

We're hiring an Applied Data Scientist to help build and scale advanced analytics that drive real business decisions. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working directly with data, building models that get used, and translating analytics into clear, actionable insights. It's not a research role and not a pure reporting role.

Job Responsibility

  • Build and deploy predictive and prescriptive analytics models
  • Translate ambiguous business questions into structured analytical solutions
  • Use data to identify drivers of performance and recommend next best actions
  • Apply analytics to banking and credit union performance, including profitability, growth, pricing, and operational efficiency
  • Partner with leadership to communicate insights and support decision-making
  • Contribute to Power BI dashboards and analytics storytelling as needed
  • Work end to end, from data to models to insights that influence action

Requirements

  • 5–10 years of experience in applied data science, advanced analytics, or highly technical analytics roles
  • Proven experience building and deploying analytics models into production
  • Strong skills in Python, SQL, and Power BI
  • Exposure to Microsoft Fabric or similar modern data platforms
  • Ability to communicate complex analytics to business and executive audiences
  • Practical, execution-focused mindset and willingness to flex in a small team environment
  • Experience with banking, credit unions, or financial services analytics is a strong plus

Nice to have
