1wk ago - RevenueCat is hiring a remote Senior Data Scientist. πŸ’Έ Salary: usd 208,000 per year πŸ“Location: Worldwide

Role Description

We're looking for a Data Scientist to support product initiatives for RevenueCat Capital , with deep experience in:

  • Lead qualification
  • Anomaly detection
  • Fraud prevention
  • Underwriting

This is a chance to be the founding Data Scientist embedded within the Capital team, a greenfield opportunity to scale our new fintech business lines from <$1M to $100M+.

You'll partner directly with leadership, collaborate across teams, and bring a new product to life inside RevenueCat. Your work will touch real money, real developers, and a product that is just getting started.

What you'll do

  • Own the Data Science strategy for RC Capital.
  • Build the foundation for our underwriting and fraud detection systems from the ground up.
  • Develop sophisticated models for lead qualification, anomaly detection, fraud prevention, and credit underwriting.
  • Partner closely with Product and Engineering to integrate risk signals and underwriting logic into customer-facing flows and internal decisioning engines.
  • Analyze cross-platform revenue data to uncover insights that improve our underwriting models and product design.
  • Build mechanisms for measuring impact, evaluating model performance, and driving prioritization of new data initiatives.
  • Operate with high ownership in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment helping to define the long-term vision for our financial products.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of data science experience, ideally with a strong background in fintech, credit, lending, or payments.
  • Deep expertise in fraud and/or underwriting.
  • Ability to build models that balance risk and growth, with an understanding of the nuances of financial data.
  • Highly analytical and technical.
  • Expert in SQL and Python, capable of building, deploying, and monitoring models in production.
  • Understanding of mobile apps or developer ecosystems, or eagerness to learn this space.
  • Ownership mentality, treating RevenueCat's balance sheet, product, and brand as your own.
  • Comfortable making low-information, high-stakes decisions.
  • Systems thinker, looking for opportunities to automate and build scalable solutions.
  • Ability to balance detail, speed, and ambition without losing sight of impact.

What success looks like

In the first month, you'll:

  • Understand how Daily Payouts works today and what data powers it.
  • Get to know the team and the current state of our underwriting and fraud approach.
  • Form your own point of view on where the biggest gaps are.

Within the first 3 months, you'll:

  • Have a baseline fraud detection model in production.
  • Work with Product and Engineering to integrate risk signals into real customer flows.
  • Define what "better" looks like for improvement.

Within the first 6 months, you'll:

  • Own the underwriting and fraud detection systems end to end.
  • Influence the RC Capital product roadmap with data-backed proposals.
  • Be the person who knows best how RevenueCat's revenue data translates into financial risk signals.

Within the first 12 months, you'll:

  • Lead new Data initiatives as the Capital product line expands.
  • Help shape how Data Science operates within Capital as the team grows.
  • Have a material impact on how RevenueCat deploys capital and manages risk at scale.

Benefits

  • Competitive equity in a fast-growing, Series C startup backed by top-tier investors, including Y Combinator.
  • 10-year window to exercise vested equity options.
  • Fully remote and flexible work environment.
  • 4-5 weeks of suggested time off annually for mental, physical, and emotional recharge.
  • $2,000 USD for workspace setup and $1,000 USD annual stipend for continuous learning.
