Meet Fetch AI & Data

AI & Data at Fetch sit at the center of how we understand our business, make decisions, and build intelligent products. The organization operates as an integrated AI & data ecosystem, spanning multiple disciplines, including data engineering, analytics engineering, machine learning, experimentation, and data platforms, all working together to turn data into durable business and customer impact.

Teams operate in complex problem spaces where requirements evolve, tradeoffs are constant, and the right answer is rarely obvious. Success depends on strong technical judgment, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to gather context and make informed decisions while balancing quality, performance, scalability, and responsible use.

Practitioners across this org contribute hands-on to production systems, analytical foundations, and intelligent features. You will collaborate closely with product, platform, and engineering partners, help shape standards and best practices, and ensure our AI and data capabilities scale reliably as Fetch grows.

About the Role

Fetch’s off-platform data business monetizes our data beyond the app through audience segments, measurement capabilities, and data feeds. We are seeking a Staff Data Scientist to build the foundations of this business and accelerate its growth, serving as technical lead for a small team of data scientists while remaining hands-on in building the models and systems behind our data products.

You’ll set the technical direction across audiences, measurement, and data feeds, and personally architect and build the models and systems behind them, from early prototypes through scalable production use. On the audience side, you’ll build predictive models that extend Fetch’s reach well beyond our own user base, shape the relevance and ranking approaches that match the right audiences to each advertiser’s goals, and apply those capabilities to in-product work as well. On the measurement side, you’ll own the frameworks that turn campaign data into trusted proof of sales impact, using causal inference to separate true advertising effects from noise.

You’ll also set the quality bar for your team through hands-on mentorship and rigorous reviews, champion our methodology with customers, partners, and industry leaders, and align senior leaders around clear, decisive recommendations. You’ll build strong partnerships across product, engineering, and Go-to-Market teams to help establish Fetch’s approach as a trusted market standard.

This is a full-time role that can be held from one of our US offices or remotely in the United States.
