The Role

We are seeking a Lead Data Scientist to lead the science and analytics behind our Food GreenScore® and 100+ verified health & sustainability attributes. This is a highly strategic, hands-on role that blends statistical modeling, algorithm development, and applied insights.

 

You will work closely with our Head of Engineering (Ajeenckya Gadewar), our registered dietitians, and our Science Advisory Board to:

  • Advance and maintain our scoring algorithms across nutrition, ingredient processing, ingredient safety, and climate footprint.
  • Build robust statistical models and QA processes to ensure data accuracy, reliability, and scalability.
  • Derive insights from shopper behavior and retailer sales data to generate continuous value for our partners.
  • Collaborate with dietitians, environmental scientists, and product managers to translate evidence-based criteria into algorithms.
  • Develop lightweight dashboards and automated reporting pipelines that deliver actionable insights to retail partners.
  • Proactively identify opportunities for predictive analytics, forecasting, and machine learning applications to enhance our product and data offerings.

     

This role is ideal for a self-starter who thrives in ambiguity, is motivated by impact, and loves solving complex, real-world problems with data. You’ll be a key contributor to GreenChoice’s evolution from a data company into a data + insights company.

 

 

What We’re Looking For

  • 8+ years of experience in data science, with strong expertise in statistical modeling, machine learning, and algorithm development.
  • Strong background in applied statistics and data analysis within a science and/or research-heavy field, preferably in nutrition, healthcare, or sustainability.
  • Experience designing and maintaining production-ready scientific scoring models and data pipelines.
  • Proficiency in Python (Pandas, Scikit-learn, etc.), SQL, and modern data visualization/BI tools.
  • Ability to translate complex datasets into actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset: proactive, curious, and able to thrive in a fast-moving, resource-constrained startup environment.
  • Excellent communication skills and collaborative spirit — we want a partner, not just an executor.

 

Nice to Have

  • Background in research and science, biotech, food systems, public health, sustainability, or consumer packaged goods (CPG).
  • Experience working in early-stage or growth-stage startups.
  • Familiarity with nutrition datasets, regulatory frameworks (USDA, FDA, WHO), or environmental metrics (GHG Protocol, WFN).

 

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: $60,000–$105,000/year (based on location & experience).
  • Equity: 0-1.5% stock options, depending on location and experience
  • Flexible scheduling.
  • Trust based sick policy. 

 

Why Join Us

  • Be part of a mission-driven, profitable startup tackling one of the most important challenges of our time: helping people eat healthier and more sustainably.
  • Play a lead role in shaping the science and insights behind a product already deployed in grocery stores nationwide.
  • Work directly with the Founder & CEO, Head of Engineering, and our Scientific Advisory Board.
  • Meaningful equity stake and competitive compensation, with flexibility in location.
