Founding Forward Deployed Data Scientist

Writing code is easier than ever. Building software users actually love is still painfully hard.

Our client is an AI product engineer that watches every user session and listens to every piece of feedback — support tickets, sales calls, and conversations — and automatically turns that signal into clear, prioritized product decisions. Instead of digging through events and scattered feedback, product teams get a complete picture of what to build next and why, with the ability to launch PRs or run experiments directly from insights.

They are building for AI-native product teams and closing the loop between user behavior and code.

This is not a reporting or support analytics role.

As a Founding Forward Deployed Data Scientist, you will own product analytics end-to-end — from raw user behavior to executive-level insights that directly shape what gets built. You’ll work directly with founders, customers, and product engineers, often embedded in high-stakes product decisions.

You will build analytics frameworks, causal measurement systems, and internal tools that scale with the product — and you’ll ship them.

If you prefer clean specs, narrow scopes, or only running experiments designed by others, this role is not for you.
