San Francisco, United States Windfall Data, Inc. Full time

At Windfall, we leverage data-driven insights to help organizations achieve their goals, from non-profits boosting their fundraising efforts to commercial companies improving their marketing ROI. We are looking for a seasoned Principal Data Scientist to play a pivotal role in developing and scaling our foundational predictive models, such as household net worth and investable assets. This is a highly impactful role where you will influence the core of our data product offerings and collaborate with cross-functional teams to maintain the highest standards of model performance.

We’re on a mission to change how organizations perceive and use people data - and we hold true to Windfall’s core values: (1) Be an excellent communicator; (2) Operate with transparency; (3) Provide leverage, not optimization; (4) Make a difference every day; and (5) Act with integrity and trust. If you are a driven, detail-oriented data scientist with experience in model risk management (OCC standards), who thrives on building and deploying complex machine learning models at scale, we’d love to hear from you.


Responsibilities:
  • Model Training & Deployment: Lead the training and production deployment of Windfall’s foundational models, focusing on predicting key financial metrics like household net worth and investable assets.
  • Model Performance Analysis: Analyze and monitor the performance of machine learning models, ensuring they meet business goals and adhere to model risk management standards.
  • Documentation & Communication: Document modeling processes with a high level of rigor and transparency. Effectively communicate key performance metrics and model insights to business stakeholders, ensuring clarity and alignment.
  • Model Risk Management: Ensure compliance with OCC Model Risk Management standards, implementing processes for model validation, testing, and monitoring.
  • Data Handling: Work with large, disparate sources of data to build robust and stable models that are resilient in real-world applications.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with engineers, analysts, and business stakeholders to design and implement models that deliver actionable insights and drive business outcomes.
Requirements:
  • At least 8 years experience working directly with machine learning models.
  • Advanced proficiency in machine learning techniques and statistical modeling.
  • Expert in Python, with a strong track record of building, deploying, and maintaining machine learning models at scale.
  • Experience handling large, diverse datasets from multiple sources.
  • Impeccable attention to detail in both model development and result reporting.
  • Strong ability to communicate technical concepts and complex model outputs clearly and effectively to non-technical stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Advanced degree (Master’s or PhD) in Data Science, Machine Learning, Statistics, Computer Science, or related fields.
  • Experience specifically with predictive models for financial products (e.g., household net worth, investable assets, credit scoring).
  • Experience with OCC model risk management practices, and working within highly regulated environments.
  • Proven experience in putting large-scale machine learning models into production environments.
  • Understanding of financial regulations and compliance, particularly around model risk management standards (e.g., OCC regulations).
  • Familiarity with MLOps tools and processes to monitor and manage machine learning models in production.
