Senior Data Scientist

Legora Legora · Vertical AI · Stockholm, Sweden · Engineering & Product

This role is for a Senior Data Scientist at an AI-first company focused on legal tech. The primary responsibility is to translate business questions into data-driven decisions, including metric definition, data modeling (dbt), analysis, and recommendations. The role involves partnering with various business units (Product, Finance, GTM, Growth, CS) and contributing to the data team's operational standards. While the company is AI-native and the data team is AI-first, the role itself is focused on traditional data science and analytics, not direct AI/ML model development or deployment.

What you'd actually do

  1. Partner with stakeholders across Product, Finance, GTM, Growth, and beyond to translate ambiguous questions into structured analyses and clear recommendations.
  2. Define the metrics that matter, design the experiments or analyses that test them, and measure the impact of what we ship.
  3. Conduct deep-dive analyses on the questions that move the business, and proactively surface the questions nobody is asking yet.
  4. Model the data you need for your work in dbt, pulling in new sources when necessary, and partner closely with data engineering on anything that needs to scale beyond your immediate use case.
  5. Build dashboards and reporting that scale beyond you, so the company can answer its own questions where possible.
