We are revolutionizing the world of collectibles trading by enabling instant liquidity and delivering a high-velocity, immersive experience. From trading cards to comics, we're redefining how people discover, collect, and unlock value.\nCourtyard is not just another marketplace. All assets are securely vaulted and fully insured, giving collectors peace of mind alongside unmatched speed and simplicity. Whether you're investing, discovering, or curating your dream collection, we've built a platform that's trusted, simple, and built for speed.\nAnd we're just getting started. We're a remote-first company hiring across all functions to push the boundaries of what's possible in collectibles and digital ownership.\nJob Summary\nCourtyard is hiring a Staff Data Scientist who operates more like a founder within the data function than a traditional big-tech analyst - someone self-driven enough to spot where DS can move the business, dig in unprompted, and land on a recommendation, not just an observation. You'll work across marketing, product, finance, and operations, in a business with a genuinely probabilistic core, so you should think naturally in ranges and likely outcomes. You don't need to be a deep technical expert, but you shouldn't be lost around engineering and data infrastructure either - able to pair with AI to push through the technical parts, not just do the research and hand off the rest.\nWhat You'll Do\nProactively find where DS can create leverage across marketing, product, finance, and operations\nLead ambiguous, high-stakes investigations end-to-end - launches, marketing, pricing, product, ops bottlenecks - to a clear recommendation\nReason rigorously under uncertainty - comfortable with ranges and simulated outcomes, not just point estimates\nDig into root cause yourself, across systems, without much hand-holding\nOwn core data models and metric definitions, pairing with AI on the deep technical lifting rather than needing it handed off\nPush self-serve, AI-assisted analytics so fewer things require a dedicated data scientist\nSet the bar for rigor and judgment across the team\nWhat We're Looking For\nSelf-driven - finds the valuable problem before it's handed to you, doesn't stop at \"here's what the data shows\"\nComfortable with real ambiguity and messy system - digs until you understand what's happening\nBroad enough technically to navigate engineering/data infra and pair with AI on the hard parts, not just research\nStrong quantitative intuition, including reasoning under uncertainty\nExperience spanning multiple functions (marketing, product, finance, operations), not one narrow domain\nSharp communicator - turns analysis into recommendations leadership can act on\n6+ years industry DS/analytics experience at senior/staff-level scope\nBonus: background in a simulation- or probability-heavy domain (quant trading, gaming, statistics/economics)\nWhat You'll Get In Return\nA dynamic and engaging environment focused on fostering real growth and innovation\nOpportunities to create amazing products that our customers truly love and value\nComprehensive health insurance packages with dependent coverage\nCompetitive salary with ample opportunities for career advancement and development\nEnjoy the flexibility of a fully remote work environment\n401(k) plan with a 4% employer match to help you plan for the future\n$100 monthly dogfooding stipend to support trying out our products firsthand\nAccess to employee wellness programs designed to support your overall well-being","description_format":"text","description_chars":3589,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Health insurance","Wellness"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Marketplaces","Collectibles & Trading Cards"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-03T17:52:08Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":9,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.339,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":74,"expected_fill_days":26,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/courtyard-staff-data-scientist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/courtyard-staff-data-scientist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-17T10:25:58Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":13622,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-18T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":17582},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=17582"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcourtyard-staff-data-scientist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcourtyard-staff-data-scientist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcourtyard-staff-data-scientist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/courtyard-staff-data-scientist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcourtyard-staff-data-scientist"}]}
