About the Role
Questrade Financial Group (QFG) is seeking a Manager, Data Science to lead the vision and technical execution of data science and marketing science for Marketing and Product. This hands-on technical leader will spearhead a unified marketing measurement strategy, design predictive growth models, establish production-grade model standards, and mentor a data science team, all while leveraging AI to transform customer experiences and empower teams.
Responsibilities
- Define and drive the data science and marketing science vision for Marketing and Product, establishing high technical standards and translating business growth priorities into a scalable modeling roadmap.
- Own the end-to-end marketing measurement framework, unifying media mix modeling (MMM), incrementality/geo testing, and multi-touch attribution into a cohesive view to guide capital allocation across brand and performance channels.
- Architect, build, and deploy high-impact predictive models—including client lifetime value (LTV), cross-sell/upsell propensity, and churn/retention—directly embedding them into day-to-day product and marketing operations.
- Hold all data science products to strict production criteria: ensuring business value is sized upfront, models are systematically validated against holdouts or baseline controls, and pipelines run reliably in production environments.
- Maintain an active hands-on engineering presence by writing, debugging, and reviewing production Python, SQL, and dbt models (on BigQuery, Databricks, or Snowflake), while utilizing AI coding agents to accelerate delivery with rigorous validation.
- Direct and govern external measurement partners, data vendors, and agency relationships—critically evaluating and pressure-testing their statistical methods, assumptions, and deliverables to ensure integrity.
- Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing team of data scientists; act as the organization's subject matter expert on causal inference, experimentation design, and statistical rigor for adjacent analysts and cross-functional partners.
- Comfortable using AI tools in day-to-day modeling and coding work, with the judgment to validate their output.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics, Quantitative Marketing, or equivalent practical experience.
- 7+ years of progressive experience in data science, marketing science, or advanced analytics, with a proven track record of models directly influencing marketing investments or product growth.
- Deep practical expertise in media mix modeling (MMM), incrementality testing, geo-testing, multi-touch attribution, causal inference, and client lifetime value (LTV) / propensity modeling.
- Advanced proficiency in Python for building production machine learning and statistical models; strong SQL and dbt expertise on cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Databricks, or Snowflake).
- Demonstrated experience directing external measurement agencies, vendors, or consulting partners, with the ability to critically pressure-test statistical methodologies.
- Proven track record of leading, mentoring, and developing data scientists while remaining actively hands-on with modeling and code.
- Master’s or Ph.D. in a quantitative discipline (e.g., Statistics, Econometrics, Machine Learning, Applied Mathematics).
- Regular hands-on experience utilizing modern AI coding agents (such as Claude Code) to accelerate model development, coupled with rigorous validation of AI outputs.
- Experience building a marketing science or data science practice from scratch in a fast-paced or greenfield environment.
- Prior experience in fintech, digital banking, online brokerage, or regulated customer data environments.
