CSC Generation is the AI-native holding company re-engineering omnichannel retail. We acquire iconic brands and transform them with Genesis, our operating platform combining a Data Fabric, Automation Engine, proprietary tools, and shared services to modernize operations, elevate customer experience, and expand margins. With $1B+ in revenue across 13 brands, our portfolio includes Sur La Table, Backcountry, One Kings Lane, and others that serve as real-world innovation labs.

Success is not a better offline metric.

The systems you build should produce measurable economic lift in controlled experiments, generalize across businesses, learn from their own interventions, and safely automate an increasing share of real commercial decisions.

Over time, the goal is simple:

We care more about exceptional technical ability and judgment than matching a checklist. Strong candidates will have experience in several of:

Machine learning and statistical modeling
Causal inference and experimentation
Recommendation, advertising, pricing, marketplace, credit, or other decision systems
Bandits, reinforcement learning, optimization, or active learning
Uncertainty estimation
Counterfactual evaluation
Production ML systems
Python, SQL, and large behavioral datasets

Most ML systems learn from a dataset. Here, the decisions made by the model influence the data the model sees next. That creates a continuous loop: decision, intervention, outcome, learning, better decision.

The long-term opportunity is to build that capability once and apply it across a portfolio of businesses and increasingly broad commercial decisions.

Real-world impact. The systems you build will run live commercial decisions across a portfolio of consumer brands, so you will see measurable economic outcomes from your work, not just offline benchmark improvements.

Technical growth at the frontier. Causal decision systems that learn from their own interventions are still an open problem. You will work at the intersection of causal ML, bandit algorithms, and production engineering, with the latitude to choose the right method for the problem.

Full ownership. You will own problems end to end, from framing and modeling through production deployment and evaluation.

Competitive benefits. We offer an attractive benefits package including primarily remote work, private medical and life insurance, additional paid time off, monthly allowances and reimbursements, employee discounts, and opportunities for professional growth.

Recruiter Screen: A conversation with our recruiting team to cover your background, the role, and mutual fit.
Virtual Interview Rounds: Focused discussion with the hiring manager & deeper conversations with cross-functional engineering and data science collaborators covering technical depth, system design, and working style.
In-Person Interview: A final on-site visit at our Costa Rica office to meet the broader team and connect with key stakeholders.
Reference Checks: Conducted in parallel with the final stages where possible.
Offer: We move quickly for the right candidate.

Interview process is subject to change. Any updates will be shared promptly and clearly.
