About the Role

We’re looking to hire a Data Scientist will be responsible for turning Fixa’s growing data assets into actionable insights, predictive models, and decision frameworks that power lending, risk management, growth, and operational efficiency.


Location & Work Model Disclaimer:

This is a primarily remote role, candidates, however, must be willing to spend multiple extended periods on the ground each year working closely with local teams, partners, and leadership, as in-market presence is critical to execution and context.


Responsibilities
  • Build and maintain models for credit risk, fraud detection, user behavior, and portfolio performance
  • Partner with Product, Finance, and Engineering to embed data into decision-making
  • Define and track core business, risk, and growth metrics
  • Design experiments and analyses to improve unit economics and customer outcomes
  • Ensure data quality, governance, and scalable analytics infrastructure
  • Mentor junior analysts and help establish data best practices

Required Experience & Profile

  • 5+ years of experience in data science, analytics, or applied machine learning
  • Strong background in fintech, lending, payments, or financial risk modeling preferred
  • Experience working with large datasets and production-level data pipelines
  • Ability to communicate insights clearly to non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience supporting scale-phase decision-making in high-growth environments

Success Indicators

  • Reliable, explainable models that improve risk and profitability
  • Clear dashboards and metrics actively used by leadership
  • Faster, better-informed decisions across product and finance
  • Strong data culture embedded in the organization
