<p><strong>SUMMARY</strong></p>
<p>We're looking for a Senior Data Scientist to modernize how we build, deploy, and maintain predictive and statistical models. This isn't a role for maintaining what exists; it's for someone who sees what data science should look like in three years and can start building toward it now.</p>
<p>You'll blend applied statistical judgment with MLOps operating excellence, and you'll do it with an AI-first approach. You use modern AI tooling to accelerate model development, experimentation, deployment, monitoring, and documentation, while maintaining the rigor and reliability that production systems require. When automation isn't enough, you build.</p>
<p>This is a senior individual contributor role with no direct reports. You'll set the standard for how machine learning gets done at Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment and help the broader team ship faster and more confidently.</p>
<p><strong>WHAT YOU WILL DO</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Own the end-to-end model lifecycle: establish and run the operating model for how we develop, validate, deploy, monitor, and iterate ML and statistical models in production.</li>
<li>Be AI-first in model development: use AI to accelerate feature ideation, experimentation, model prototyping, documentation, and troubleshooting—building repeatable workflows that scale beyond individual projects.</li>
<li>Provide statistical and methodological leadership: advise teams on appropriate techniques (inference vs prediction, experimental vs observational methods, uncertainty, bias/variance tradeoffs), and set standards for model validity and interpretation.</li>
<li>Design practical MLOps patterns: implement lightweight, scalable patterns for versioning, reproducibility, evaluation, CI/CD, and monitoring (data drift, model drift, performance regressions).</li>
<li>Enable faster, safer deployment: partner with engineering and analytics to productionize models and ensure they are reliable, observable, and maintainable with clear ownership and runbooks.</li>
<li>Standardize evaluation and governance: define requirements for testing, backtesting, model cards/notes, documentation, and approval pathways—especially for models that influence decisions.</li>
<li>Stay current and integrate new technology thoughtfully: evaluate emerging tools and practices; separate signal from noise; integrate improvements into the workflow without chasing hype.</li>
<li>Uplevel the team through enablement: create playbooks, templates, and training so analysts and scientists can ship models with consistent quality and speed.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>WHAT YOU WILL BRING</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative field (Statistics, Computer Science, Economics, Engineering, Mathematics) or equivalent practical experience; advanced degree a plus.</li>
<li><strong>5+ years</strong> in applied machine learning, data science, analytics, or related roles with demonstrated ownership of models from development through production impact.</li>
<li><strong>AI-first work style</strong>: you habitually use AI to accelerate how you think, build, and communicate—and you can explain your approach.</li>
<li>Solid grounding in <strong>statistical inference and modeling</strong> (e.g., regression/classification, time series, causal thinking, experiment design/measurement, uncertainty estimation).</li>
<li>Practical experience with <strong>MLOps concepts</strong>: reproducibility, model versioning, evaluation, deployment patterns, monitoring/alerting, and data quality checks.</li>
<li>Comfort working with modern data ecosystems (warehouses, pipelines, BI consumers), and partnering with engineering to productionize solutions.</li>
<li>Strong SQL and deep comfort working directly in <strong>Snowflake</strong> to validate logic, troubleshoot discrepancies, and build repeatable analyses a plus.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>WHO YOU ARE</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>A fast learner of AI tooling:</strong> you enjoy experimenting with new tools, quickly separating signal from noise, and integrating practical improvements into repeatable workflows.</li>
<li>Strong communicator: ability to explain model behavior, tradeoffs, and uncertainty clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>COMPENSATION</strong></p>
<p>$100,000 - $160,000</p>
<p>Full-time employees are eligible for a robust slate of total rewards, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bonus eligibility</li>
<li>Medical, dental, and vision coverage; HSA and FSA eligibility</li>
<li>401k Employer Match at 4%</li>
<li>Competitive PTO policy & Company Holidays</li>
<li>Parental leave policy eligible after 6 months of service</li>
<li>Access to events at Barclays Center, subject to ticket availability</li>
<li>Free lunch onsite Monday - Thursday; onsite barista bar</li>
<li>And more!</li>
</ul>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>WORK ENVIRONMENT</strong></p>
<p>Work primarily in an office environment. </p>
