ABOUT THE TEAM 🤝
Data Scientists at Rocket Money further our mission by building data products that deepen customer relationships with our many financial products. Our team builds machine learning driven product experiences that identify and engage customers who would benefit from mortgage and personal loan products. We integrate with product and engineering teams to understand, explain, predict, and intervene to improve product retention. Data Scientists also support growth operations by designing ML driven personalization experiences in onboarding. We have a strong preference for team players that are comfortable collaborating across teams, know how to shape strategy with data, and can deliver solutions within engineering teams.
ABOUT THE ROLE 🤹♀️
In this role, you will focus on the following types of problems:
- Build new, machine learning powered user-facing features and experiences in deep collaboration with engineering, product, and design teams. Use your expertise in ML system and model design to delight our customers with new user experiences. Work with engineering teams to build software to deliver new experiences to Rocket Money’s customers.
- Optimize to continuous product feedback loops - you understand that data science is the practice of a continuous lifecycle of measurement, analysis, modeling, and hypothesis testing. You understand how to build, test, and deliver user-facing data science products in an incremental way.
- Help develop the next version of Autopilot and Budgets. Ensure members have money in the right place at the right time for their near and long term goals. Warn them when they do not.
- Uncover and exploit relationships between customers’ subscriptions, purchase, and transaction data as you build personalized product experiences and power ever more accurate customer segmentation, propensity, and affiliate targeting models.
- Design and conduct experiments to estimate the impact of new products, customer messaging, and marketing. You know how to use experimentation to build the strategic case for more tailored ML product experiences.
- Build anomaly detection systems, ensuring that our transaction categorization systems produce accurate data for our users and tracking when they don’t.
Regardless of the challenges you dive into, you will:
- Work within cross-functional teams to build new products and services, especially with engineering. You will lead ML and data science product development within a product vertical, going toe to toe with our product leads on strategy and with our engineering leads on technical implementation.
- Become a subject matter expert in your area of specialty and be responsible for leading projects from start to finish - making key decisions on both implementation and scope while balancing technical and business goals.
- Become an expert on our members. Understand their needs and financial goals. Work with product to define strategy and engineering teams to create software and build features that help our members build better financial lives.
- Use your expertise in ML system architecture and model design to aid product delivery, both internal and external.
- Be a steward of good instrumentation and experimental design - designing analyses, models, and products in a way that is measurable, testable, repeatable, and robust. You will advocate for experimental approaches in everything that we do.
- Build internal tooling that improves the data science and ML product implementation - help accelerate the work of others on engineering and data teams.
- Maintain a high technical bar - participate in code reviews, contribute to product and technical design, maintain a high degree of quality in our production data, and mentor junior team members.
- Mentor junior team members across the data team, enhancing the overall ability of the team to deliver products to our users.
ABOUT YOU 🦄
- You are a team player - collaboration and communication are a first instinct and key tool for getting stuff done. You continually seek feedback on your work and err on the side of over communicating.
- You care about products, not publications. Solving user problems is of key importance for you, not necessarily finding esoteric problems. We love recovering academics that aren’t looking in the rearview.
- You know how to work at a strategic level - you can collaborate with stakeholders to define new projects and initiatives for yourself and others. You can reliably and independently define direction for yourself and others on your team.
- You know how to deliver products incrementally - doing the simple thing first, finding and measuring signal, and iterating to build better user experiences.
- Excellent writing, presentation, and communication skills. Documenting, soliciting feedback, and securing alignment among collaborators is second nature.
- Excellent software engineering skills. You can contribute up and down the application stack to deliver data products to users. Evidenced experience working with engineering teams to build software is an absolute must.
- You have a lot of tools in your methodological tool belt and wield a selection expertly.
- You have 6+ years of professional experience working in a data science capacity. You know your way around databases, data warehouses, models, and how to engineer backend machine learning and data science systems. Bonus points if you have experience integrating data products into application front ends. You are equally adept at hacking together proof of concepts and working within engineering teams to build scalable, durable systems.
- You embrace the player/coach mindset. You take care to mentor and develop others when leading projects. You’ve helped junior data scientists grow in their careers and you always level up the technical skills of those around you.
- You care just as much about why you're solving a problem as the solution. You always want a deep understanding of context and business impact. You are a data scientist first but an expert analyst when necessary.
- Deep experience in several of the following in a professional capacity: customer segmentation and personalization, time series modeling, natural language processing, traditional classification/regression problems, design and implementation of experiments, recommendation systems, building generative AI applications in consumer software.
- You find yourself building tools to help others solve their problems and follow a philosophy of continuous improvement and automation.
- You want to continue to grow and learn. You are excited by hard problems and big challenges.
- Experience in fintech, banking, or finance is a plus.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
