These include a next-generation Verified Identity Network, password-less authentication powered through passkeys, Generative AI experiences, modern and sophisticated fraud prevention, centralized user and account management, and much more. Data is central to Intuit’s decision-making process, and data scientists are a critical component to evangelize data-driven decisions as we transform and scale Identity capabilities to power Intuit’s future growth.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with cross functional teams to drive data-backed decisions and actionable insights

  • Use a hypothesis-driven approach to drive design, implementation, and analysis of A/B experiments. Then provide executive level recommendations on next steps based on the test results and insights

  • Communicate analytical findings and recommendations in a clear and concise way to non-technical audiences, both in writing and through oral presentations

  • Provide guidance and thought leadership to business leaders and stakeholders on how best to harness available data to support business goals

  • Ensure data collection and data processing is optimized to provide crystal-clear visibility into the impact and value of new initiatives and product releases

  • Pursue data quality, troubleshoot data anomalies, validate data accuracy, and drive issues to resolution

  • Share responsibility for owning and maintaining the data science backlog, connecting directly with partners and stakeholders to communicate and align on priorities

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience working in web, marketing, product, analytics, or other related data science fields with a strong knowledge of statistics

  • Exceptional SQL skills and experience working with granular web and native clickstream data

  • Highly proficient in Tableau, Qliksense, Quicksight or similar software

  • Exceptional ability to take initiative, be a self-starter, and solve problems

  • Outstanding communications skills with the ability to influence decision makers and build consensus with stakeholder teams

  • Proactive and inquisitive learner who seeks out and capitalizes on opportunities for change that enhance the business, rather than reacting to circumstances

  • Strong organizational skills, time management, accountability, and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously to meet objectives and key deadlines

  • Love for mentoring and guiding others on best practices. Passionate about the advancement of the whole team

  • Experience in programming languages, automation tools, and stats packages (e.g. Python) is a plus; comfortable creating re-usable data pipelines
