[Parade] Data Scientist

Data Scientist

APPLY FOR THIS JOB

Everything in America is delivered by truck - and at Parade, we’re changing the way that happens. Before Parade, our freight broker customers spent hours trying to find and book trucks to cover their freight. Parade’s machine learning and workflow tools automate the matching and booking process. We’re just getting started in how we transform full truck freight and we’re looking for an inspired first Data Scientist to join our team.

You’ll be working directly with the founders and leadership team to develop new systems that optimize both sides of the freight market. You’ll have the opportunity to work on projects as diverse as freight matching, pricing optimization, and improving the carrier experience with the opportunity to specialize as our business grows. In addition, you’ll help define what it means to be a data scientist at Parade and build a data-driven, customer-focused culture.

We’re looking for a data scientist with strong analytical, technical, and communication skills. You’ll need experience in statistical analysis and modeling. The ability to communicate and work across multiple stakeholders will be critical: you’ll need to work with both customers and our entire team from engineers to the CEO. We’re also a small team that moves fast so you’ll need to be self-starting and embrace ambiguity - and we’ll make sure you get the coaching and support to thrive.
