Bestow is the leading end-to-end life insurance SaaS company partnering with top carriers to modernize and transform the way they do business. Backed by NEA.
About the role
As a Senior Data Scientist on the Data & Analytics team, you'll split your time across two areas: building and productionizing machine learning models, and building the agentic AI tools and data products that turn one-off analysis and modeling work into durable, self-serve capability. This role is perfect for someone who is equally happy digging into a funnel conversion question, shipping a production model with monitoring in place, and building the agent that means no one has to ask the question manually again.
What they're looking for
- Experienced. 5+ years of professional experience in data science (or equivalent experience), with a track record of shipping ML models and data products to production
- SQL and Python fluent. You have advanced SQL skills and are experienced with cloud data warehouses (BigQuery preferred), and you write clean, maintainable Python
- A model builder. You have hands-on experience building traditional ML models (classification, regression, or similar) and taking them from prototype through production deployment, including ongoing performance monitoring
- Statistically grounded. You have strong statistical fundamentals underpinning your modeling work: feature engineering, validation methodology, and the judgment to know when a model is (and isn't) the right tool
- A driver of adoption. You've driven real adoption of tools you've built, not just shipped them: getting stakeholders to actually change how they work
- A clear communicator. You communicate well with non-technical stakeholders, translating requirements into models and tools they can actually use
