Jerry.ai is a fintech platform that simplifies asset management for car and home ownership. Starting with car insurance in 2019, the company has grown to 5M+ customers, raised $240M+, and achieved profitability in early 2024. The company is now expanding into adjacent verticals (home, motorcycle, RV) with a goal to reach 50M customers and $10B valuation within four years. The Data Science & Analytics team consists of 14 analytical professionals, many with consulting backgrounds (McKinsey, BCG, Bain), who drive insights and inform decision-making across product, growth, tech, and operations. As a Staff Data Scientist, you will be embedded within one of Jerry's core business units—Growth Marketing, Product Development, AI & Automation, or Strategic Partnerships—and own the analytical function end-to-end for that domain. Key responsibilities include: defining the right business problems and hypotheses before analysis; building metrics, reports, and experiments; surfacing data insights that move key metrics; and driving outcomes by bringing recommendations to product, growth, finance, and operations counterparts. You will be a hands-on contributor, not a pure strategist, seeing work through from insight to execution. The role requires 6+ years of experience in consulting, investment banking, or high-growth tech. You should be a first-principles thinker comfortable with SQL or Python, a direct communicator who can influence leadership-level decisions, and an owner who takes responsibility for solving ambiguous problems. The team uses SQL (Clickhouse), Metabase, Python, Jupyter Hub, and GitHub. Jerry emphasizes a no-nonsense culture: no slides, no corporate fluff, no unnecessary meetings. Every project must materially change business trajectory. The team values insatiable learners who care deeply about solving difficult problems and making tangible impact.
