Director, Data Science & Analytics - US Remote

About the role

At Seek, we’re building the analytics app store for business—and we need you to lead the development and delivery of production-grade analytics applications across our platform. As Director of Data & Analytics, you'll be responsible for defining the architecture, standards, and operating model for transforming raw provider datasets into scalable, secure, and maintainable analytics products. You'll also help design the framework that enables Data Science teams to build and deploy advanced models, workflows, and applications faster than ever before. In addition, you'll play a key role in evaluating and integrating AI capabilities into the Insight Cloud platform. 

Unlike traditional internal analytics teams, this role owns externally-facing data products-ML models, predictive pipelines, and embedded dashboards-delivered as commercial software to third-party end users. These applications must be engineered for robustness, version control, extensibility, and customer feedback loops. They're not built for single-use analytics or one-off insights. 

The ideal candidate brings deep technical expertise in modern data platforms, applied ML and AI infrastructure, and embedded analytics-paired with a strong product mindset. You've built systems designed to last and led teams that understand the difference between a prototype and production-grade software. 

In This Role, You’ll Get To:

• Lead a cross-functional team of analytics engineers, data scientists, and BI developers to deliver production-grade analytics and customer-facing applications.
• Architect and maintain scalable data pipelines and model infrastructure using Snowflake and Python, powering Seek’s analytics app marketplace.
• Define and enforce standards for modeling, version control, deployment, and governance to ensure modular, reusable, and maintainable analytics products.
• Collaborate with data providers to interpret raw datasets, identify high-value features, and create analytics apps that drive customer success across industries.
• Ensure high performance and reliability for all analytics products, from large Snowflake workloads to real-time prediction endpoints.
• Deliver internal reporting infrastructure that provides automated metrics, instrumentation, and dashboards to guide product and business decisions.
• Partner with product and engineering leadership to align analytics, provider workflows, and embedded delivery pipelines into a cohesive platform strategy.
• Champion AI/ML advancements, evaluating and integrating technologies like Snowflake Cortex and LLM-based APIs to enhance Seek’s platform capabilities.

We’re Excited About You Because You Have:

• 8+ years of experience in data infrastructure, applied analytics, or ML systems, including 4+ years in technical leadership roles.
• Hands-on expertise with Snowflake, SQL, and Python.
• Proficiency with distributed compute engines (e.g., Spark) and experience architecting DAG-based pipelines and parallel workflows.
• A proven track record of delivering customer-facing analytics products, not just internal dashboards, with an emphasis on scalability, version control, and lifecycle ownership.
• Deep understanding of analytics architecture in multi-tenant SaaS environments, including security, scalability, observability, and governance.
• Experience leading collaboration across data, product, engineering, and external partners to deliver complex analytics solutions.
• Familiarity with embedded BI tools (e.g., Sigma, Looker, ThoughtSpot) and an interest in LLM-driven augmentation patterns.
• A Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative or technical field (Master’s preferred).

Tools We Use:

Snowflake, Python, SQL, Spark, Sigma, Looker, ThoughtSpot, Snowflake Cortex, OpenAI API, Anthropic API

Benefits:

• Medical Insurance, Dental Insurance,  PTO, 16 annual company holidays, 401K, Vision Insurance

Compensation:

• The annual salary range for this position is between $165,000 - $185,000, depending on experience and qualifications + 10% annual bonus

Location

• This is an entirely remote position for candidates based in the US.

No Visa Sponsorship Available

• We do not offer visa sponsorship at this time.

Why This Role Matters:

• You’re not just supporting internal metrics—you’re building analytics products shipped directly to customers.
• You own the full lifecycle—from data ingestion and modeling to deployment and ongoing support.
• You’ll define the architecture that keeps our data and ML stack scalable, reliable, and future-proof.
• You’ll shape our AI strategy, selecting, testing, and implementing technologies that keep Seek ahead of the curve.

What Sets Us Apart

Seek is committed to a culture that values ownership, flexibility, and collaboration. We prioritize work-life balance and encourage our team to explore new ideas, test hypotheses, and innovate continuously. You’ll join a diverse group of professionals dedicated to pushing the boundaries of business analytics development, with ample opportunities to grow alongside talented peers who value your expertise and vision.
