Data Science Manager
Remote Full-time 7+ years Bachelor's Degree
Apply for this Position Position Overview
We are looking for a data science manager to build and run a team, not to be its most senior analyst. Your work is hiring, growing people, protecting their focus, and being accountable for what the team delivers — with enough technical depth to review a method choice and know when a plan is wishful.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage a team of data scientists: one-to-ones, growth plans, performance, and career progression.
- Hire for the team — define the profile, design the loop, calibrate the bar, and make the call.
- Own team delivery: commitments, capacity, escalation, and being explicit about what gets dropped.
- Set how work reaches the team and how it leaves: intake, prioritization, review, and handover.
- Create the conditions for rigor — review culture, reproducibility, and safety in reporting a null result.
- Partner with engineering, product, and client-facing teams on roadmap, staffing, and expectations.
- Address performance problems early and directly rather than waiting for a review cycle.
- Represent the team's work and its constraints to leadership, and protect the team from thrash.
Skills & Qualifications
- 5+ years in data science, including direct people management of scientists or analysts.
- Enough technical depth to review a method choice and an evaluation credibly.
- Hiring experience: interview design, calibration, and closing candidates.
- Delivery management under shifting priorities and imperfect information.
- Real experience with performance conversations and individual growth planning.
- The ability to turn business goals into team objectives people can act on.
- Clear written communication with executives and engineers alike.
Nice to Have
- Having grown a team from a handful of people to a larger organisation.
- Managing a distributed team across time zones.
- A prior senior individual contributor background in data science.
- Running an experimentation or measurement function.
What You'll Gain
- Competitive salary.
- Fully remote — work from wherever you're most productive.
- Annual learning budget for books, courses, and conferences.
- Top-tier hardware and software tooling.
- Private health insurance and flexible time off.
