As a Staff Data Scientist at Circle, you'll work closely with business partners to better understand our products, building measurement frameworks for digital assets products, leveraging data to find opportunities in digital assets product offerings, and enabling better decision-making with data. In this role, you will partner with our Digital Assets team, which is responsible for growing our flagship products (USDC and USYC). Specifically, the team is growing USDC by expanding our banking partnerships, offering new products that increase the utility of USDC (such as our credit and foreign exchange offerings), and through the issuance of new assets via Circle's liquidity, multichain, and settlement infrastructure.

  • Build measurement frameworks to assess the success (or shortcomings) of the product portfolio and inform decision making
  • Create data visualizations to translate analytic and data science results for broad understanding across the business
  • Build scalable automation solutions using SQL, dashboards, and other tools to create leverage for yourself and the digital assets team
  • Occasionally share your results with larger audiences to educate them on the digital assets product and ecosystem


You will aspire to our four core values:
  • Multistakeholder - you have dedication and commitment to our customers, shareholders, employees and families and local communities.
  • Mindful - you seek to be respectful, an active listener and to pay attention to detail.
  • Driven by Excellence - you are driven by our mission and our passion for customer success which means you relentlessly pursue excellence, that you do not tolerate mediocrity and you work intensely to achieve your goals.
  • High Integrity - you seek open and honest communication, and you hold yourself to very high moral and ethical standards. You reject manipulation, dishonesty and intolerance.


What you'll bring to Circle:
  • 5+ years of experience in data science.
  • Proficiency in SQL and at least one programming language, such as R or Python, for data manipulation, analysis, and modeling.
  • Strong understanding of statistics and experience applying statistical methods to understand business outcomes and customer behavior.
  • Proven experience in planning and driving analytical and data science projects.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail.
  • Strong XFN collaboration skills and can work with and influence a diverse set of stakeholders.
  • Experience with blockchain data and finance data is preferred but not required.
