Data Scientist

As a Data Scientist at Zed, you will play a critical role in shaping how data and AI power our core financial products. In your first six months, you will own the development of data science and machine learning models that directly impact credit risk, decisioning, and product performance. You will work closely with Product, Risk, Engineering, and Finance partners to translate complex business problems into robust, production-ready data solutions in a fast-moving, resource-constrained startup environment.

• Build, validate, and iterate on machine learning models that support core financial use cases such as credit risk assessment, underwriting, and portfolio performance.
• Partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders—including Product, Risk, Engineering, and Finance—to understand business objectives, define success metrics, and deliver data-driven insights.
• Take end-to-end ownership of data science projects, from problem formulation, requirement setting, and data exploration to model development, evaluation, and handoff for production.
