Data Scientist, Finance

About Us:

We're on a mission to make it possible for every person, team, and company to be able to tailor their software to solve any problem and take on any challenge. Computers may be our most powerful tools, but most of us can't build or modify the software we use on them every day. At Notion, we want to change this with focus, design, and craft.

We've been working on this together since 2016, and have customers like Pixar, Mitsubishi, Figma, Plaid, Match Group, and thousands more on this journey with us. Today, we're growing fast and excited for new teammates to join us who are the best at what they do. We're passionate about building a company as diverse and creative as the millions of people Notion reaches worldwide.

Notion is an in-person company, and currently requires its employees to come to the office for two Anchor Days (Mondays & Thursdays) and requests that employees spend the majority of their week in the office (including a third day).

About The Role:

Notion is seeking a Finance Data Scientist to join our growing team. In this role, you'll work at the intersection of Finance, Product, and Go-to-Market, using data to drive Notion's growth and success. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator with a growth mindset who collaborates effectively and focuses on action and impact.

Your work will translate initiatives from both our self-serve and sales-assisted businesses into tangible revenue outcomes. You'll partner with the Strategic Finance team to identify growth opportunities, develop insights that deepen our understanding of the business, and forecast future performance.

What You'll Achieve:

• Partner with Strategic Finance to understand the drivers of our business and accelerate Notion's growth
• Deliver proactive insights on key business drivers, financial trends, and potential areas for growth or optimization
• Build and refine data science forecasts for both short-term and long-range planning
• Empower others through self-service tools and reports that drive awareness and understanding of key metrics
• Work with Data Engineering to build core data models that power operational and exploratory data analyses

Skills You'll Need to Bring:

• You have 2+ years of experience in analytics and data science, with a track record of collaborating with finance, business operations, growth, or go-to-market teams
• You have expertise in at least one scripting language (ideally Python or R)
• You have experience building predictive models and you know how to evaluate their effectiveness
• You're comfortable transforming raw data to build your own datasets if the metric you need doesn't exist yet
• You have a bias for using the right tools to get a job done with maximum efficiency. You have experience making tradeoffs between speed and accuracy
• Strong communication and collaboration while working in cross-functional environments
