About the Role

We're seeking a Staff Machine Learning Data Scientist to lead consumption forecasting at Vercel. This is a staff-level technical leadership role: you'll architect the ML systems and modeling approach behind forecasting that powers financial planning, infrastructure investment, and executive decision-making, and set the technical direction other data scientists and engineers build against.

You'll define the company's forecasting methodology from first principles, push the underlying modeling techniques well beyond off-the-shelf approaches, and build ML systems that scale with Vercel's rapidly growing platform. The role sits at the intersection of Finance, Infrastructure, Product, and GTM, with high visibility across leadership and significant latitude to define how the problem gets solved.
