What You’ll Do
We’re seeking a hands-on Data Scientist to support Provenir’s growing business across Latin America. In this role, you’ll help clients and internal teams understand, build, and apply data science solutions through our AI Decisioning platform.
You’ll work across a range of analytical and decisioning use cases, helping turn data, models, rules, and insights into practical business outcomes. These may include areas such as customer decisioning, risk analytics, fraud prevention, collections, customer management, operational efficiency, and broader business automation.
You’ll join Provenir’s global Data Science team and work closely with colleagues across Sales, Pre-Sales, GAI, Product, and Technology. This role blends hands-on analytical delivery with stakeholder communication and exposure to client-facing work. It is well suited to someone who enjoys solving real-world problems and wants to grow their ability to explain data science solutions in a commercial environment.
Portuguese and English fluency are required for this role. Spanish is a plus.
This is a remote role, but our new colleague should be based in São Paulo, Brazil. Occasional travel may be required for regional team meetings and client engagements.
Your Responsibilities
Support LATAM engagements across a range of data science, analytics, and decisioning use cases.
Work with internal teams and, where appropriate, clients to understand business problems, data availability, analytical requirements, and expected outcomes.
Build, evaluate, and explain analytical solutions, including predictive models, scorecards, decision rules, segmentation analysis, simulations, and business insights.
Use Python and common data science libraries to clean, explore, transform, and analyze data.
Help prepare analytical outputs, client-ready insights, model performance summaries, and business recommendations.
Contribute data science input to discovery, workshops, demonstrations, and delivery activities, with support from more experienced team members.
Help explain how machine learning, rules, explainability, monitoring, and decisioning can be applied within the Provenir platform.
Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Document analysis, assumptions, code, and recommendations in a clear and reproducible way.
Follow and contribute to team best practices for code quality, documentation, version control, testing, and reusable delivery assets.
Collaborate with global Data Science colleagues to share learnings, improve internal approaches, and support consistent delivery across regions.
Your Strengths and Skills
Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field plus a minimum of 3 years of experience in data science, analytics, decision science, applied machine learning, or a related field; or a master’s degree or equivalent experience in a related STEM field.
Strong Python skills, including experience with pandas, scikit-learn, notebooks, data wrangling, and model development workflows.
Experience building, validating, or interpreting supervised machine learning models.
Strong data manipulation skills, including merging, cleansing, sampling, profiling, and preparing data for analysis.
Ability to balance model performance, explainability, complexity, and business usability.
Good understanding of common model evaluation concepts such as AUC, precision, recall, lift, stability, and model monitoring.
Ability to translate analytical outputs into clear insights and recommendations.
Strong communication skills in Portuguese and English; Spanish language skills are a plus and would help strengthen regional coverage across LATAM.
Comfortable communicating with internal stakeholders and open to working directly with clients as part of project delivery and discovery.
Curious, proactive, and willing to learn new business domains, analytical methods, and platform capabilities.
Organized and delivery-focused, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.
Although not essential, it would be great if you also have any of these strengths,
Experience in financial services, fintech, banking, lending, payments, insurance, telecommunications, or another data-rich industry.
Exposure to client-facing work, workshops, product demonstrations, or cross-functional business discussions.
Experience with MLOps, model deployment, APIs, MLflow, CI/CD, or production model governance.
Familiarity with credit risk, fraud, collections, or customer management use cases.
Experience preparing presentations, technical documentation, or business summaries for data science initiatives.
