Senior Domain Expert, Labor Economist
Syndio - New York City Metropolitan Area
Hiring: Senior Domain Expert, Labor Economist Company: Syndio Location: New York City Metropolitan Area Job Posted Time: 2026-09-17 05:47:28 Employment Type: Remote Target Skills & Keywords : REST, Zoom About the job Experience: •5+ years of hands-on quantitative work in labor economics, statistics, econometrics, industrial-organizational psychology, or a directly related field, applied to compensation, workforce, or pay equity questions. Required Skills: •Syndio is the leader in compensation equity and pay decision intelligence, helping the world's largest employers make fair, defensible, and transparent pay decisions at scale. As our enterprise footprint grows, the quantitative depth behind our recommendations has to keep pace. •Why this job is exciting •Lead a squad. You will be an individual contributor but you will own an area of Syndio's methodology and content — comparator group logic, regression modeling, remediation methodology, or a related domain. Guide the squad's roadmap, prioritize what gets built, and hold the technical bar for the work that ships. •Build 1:many resources. Turn recurring methodological questions into durable content — customer briefings, methodology guides, model documentation, worked examples — so recurring questions do not require a recurring meeting. •Partner with Product. Work directly with Product and AI teams to embed methodology into Decisions and Essentials. Translate quantitative rigor into product logic, review model outputs, catch the edge cases before customers do. •Show up for the moments that matter. Anchor customer QBRs, regulatory inflection points, and board-adjacent conversations where the methodology has to hold. Not every meeting — the ones where getting the math and the framing right changes the outcome. •Feed the frameworks upward. Surface what current frameworks don't yet cover. Bring specific customer patterns and methodological gaps to the Principal-level colleagues and to Product so the platform's intelligence keeps compounding. Qualifications: •Deep facility with regression modeling and comparator methodology. You can build a defensible pay equity model, explain what it does and does not tell you, and defend the choices behind it in front of a non-technical audience. •Demonstrated ability to translate quantitative rigor into language a CHRO, a works council, or a CSM can act on, without losing the substance. •Strong judgment on the difference between what the data supports and what the customer wants it to say, and comfort holding that line. •Track record of building content, documentation, or enablement materials that reduce reliance on your calendar over time. •Comfort thinking about how quantitative expertise translates into AI-mediated product capability. •Why You'll Love It Here •💰 Competitive Compensation. For this role our salary is targeted at $142,000 -$167,000 per year. Final offer amounts are determined by factors such as experience and expertise. We take a geo neutral approach to compensation within the US, meaning that we pay based on job function and level, not location. •🏆 Syndio Equity. So you can share in Syndio’s success. •🏝 Flexible Vacation Policy. We encourage our team to recharge when they need to, plus paid sick & safe time, compassion leave, and voting leave. •🩺 Medical, Dental, Vision. Syndio pays 90% of employee premiums, and 50% for dependents. Compensation: •$142,000 - $167,000 / year •Flexible work environment (work from home / hybrid options) Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
