A one-stop shop for wholesale.
Faire is using machine learning to change wholesale and help local retailers compete with Amazon and big box stores. Our experienced data scientists and machine learning engineers are tackling recommendations, ranking, search, logistics, underwriting, and more - all with the goal of helping local retail thrive.
Job Description
The Data Science team owns a wide variety of algorithms and models that power the marketplace. We care about building machine learning models that help our customers thrive. The data science team helps answer questions like; How do we underwrite retailers with thin files? How do we optimally assign term limits to Faire retailers? How to minimize the risk of defaults while maximizing the share of wallet growth driven by net terms? What data sources should we invest in to improve the performance of our credit models?
We’re looking for someone who’s comfortable working on the cutting edge of machine learning research. You’re happy working autonomously and delivering results without micromanagement. You wake up ready to take a problem end-to-end, dive into the guts of our information-rich databases, and produce actionable insights. You can’t wait to push the boundaries and discover the next big thing, then share it with your peers. You are, or will be, world-class in credit risk and help lead the wider data community. Faire will soon be known as a top destination for data scientists and machine learning, and you will help take us there!
