133k – 185kSan Francisco, CAHybrid5+ YOE
Summary

Senior Growth Product Data Scientist partnering with Product and Engineering to drive experimentation, build metrics, and deliver data-driven recommendations that improve acquisition, conversion, and retention.

About the role

Responsibilities

  • Operate as an independent thought partner to Product, Engineering, and Design — helping shape strategy, not just measure it. Proactively identify opportunities and risks, framing the right questions before they’re even asked.
  • Work with the team to develop a rich program of experimentation and A/B testing to improve member product experiences, including metric creation, experiment design, power analysis, and analysis of experiment results.
  • Drive data-informed decision making within Growth org by equipping PMs and engineers with self-service analytics tools, and conducting ad hoc analyses and causal studies for the team.
  • Use advanced statistical methods for causal inference, as well as time-series and other forecasting techniques, to solve product questions for the team. Occasionally apply machine learning methods for problems such as customer segmentation.
  • Build metrics to measure user funnels, product engagement, and retention, and use those metrics to help brainstorm potential product experiments to drive improvements in them.
  • Help the team establish high-quality eventing to allow the tracking of detailed user behaviors along customer journeys through Chime’s mobile app.
  • Develop and evolve team metrics that define what “good” looks like — ensuring that we optimize for long-term member and business value – and build operational dashboards to track business and product health.
  • Translate complex analytical findings into compelling, executive-ready narratives that inspire action and alignment across teams.
  • Develop robust data pipelines in dbt for your team, and continuously improve the quality and accessibility of customer data.

Requirements

  • 5-7 years of relevant hands-on experience in product or business analytics roles (FinTech a plus).
  • Expert-level SQL ability and proficiency in Python.
  • Broad knowledge of applied statistics, experimental design, and analysis of A/B tests. Demonstrated experience with machine learning techniques for applied business use cases.
  • Demonstrated experience acting as a trusted advisor to senior cross-functional partners — influencing decisions through both data and judgment.
  • A strong bias toward proactive problem discovery. You don’t wait for tickets — you explore data, spot patterns, and bring forward opportunities that meaningfully change product direction.
  • Strong business intuition and judgment, and experience applying prioritization frameworks to your work (e.g., RICE, Eisenhower matrix).
  • Exceptional data storytelling and data visualization ability. Experience with Hex and Looker.
  • Familiarity with building data pipelines using tools like dbt or Airflow.
  • Familiarity with AI coding tools (such as Claude Code and Cursor).

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base salary: $133,000 – $185,000
  • Eligible for bonus, competitive equity package, and benefits.
