Hiring: Senior Data Scientist Company: Pivotal Health Location: Brooklyn, NY Job Posted Time: 2026-09-16 12:05:38 Employment Type: Remote Target Skills & Keywords : Python About the job Required Skills: •We’re hiring a Senior Data Scientist, Decisioning to improve the systems that determine how Pivotal makes high-value decisions in core workflows. •We’re especially interested in candidates who have worked on hard decisioning problems in environments like marketplaces, pricing and revenue optimization, lending and credit, ad tech, bidding systems, or other domains where experimentation, optimization, and operating constraints all matter at once. •This is not a research-only role. We want someone who can think deeply, work rigorously, and still move quickly from analysis and modeling into production changes with measurable impact. •We also want someone who is AI-first in their own workflow. The right person will use AI actively for exploration, analysis, iteration, experimentation, and engineering support, and will help the team build a strong AI-native way of working. •Improve decisioning systems that affect pricing, offer behavior, workflow routing, and other economically meaningful product outcomes. •Design and run experiments that help us understand whether product, rules, prompt, or model changes are actually improving performance. •Build models, heuristics, optimization logic, or evaluation frameworks that improve real-world outcomes under operational constraints. •Help translate business objectives into measurable decisioning systems with clear tradeoffs and success criteria. Qualifications: •You are excited by high-stakes decisioning problems that combine data, uncertainty, incentives, and operational constraints. •You have strong applied data science instincts, but you want your work to ship. •You are comfortable moving between modeling, experimentation, analysis, and product or engineering collaboration. •You can reason clearly about metrics, tradeoffs, and second-order effects. •You are pragmatic and can choose the right level of sophistication for the problem instead of overcomplicating it. •You are an AI power user yourself and actively use AI in your day-to-day work with good judgment. •You like operating in fast-moving environments where the path is not perfectly defined and impact comes from good judgment plus speed. •Why This Role Is Interesting •The problems are economically meaningful and close to core company outcomes. •The work combines data science depth with real product and production ownership. Compensation: •$230,000 - $250,000 / year •Today, many providers face persistent underpayment from health insurance companies, despite delivering high-quality care Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
