## Description

As a Senior Finance Data Scientist, Existing Business, you will be the architect of the systems that predict Intercom's revenue future. You will move beyond static reporting to build production-grade forecasting models that translate complex customer behaviors into financial signals.

You will work on high-impact, open-ended problems, such as predicting expansion propensity and modeling long-term customer LTV. This role requires a hybrid of financial intuition and technical rigor: the ability to navigate raw data warehouses and the strategic mindset to explain the "why" behind the numbers to our leadership team.

### Responsibilities

- Own and Evolve the Revenue Engine: Build and maintain predictive models for usage-based revenue, renewals, and expansion that outperform traditional linear forecasts.

- Unlock Predictive Insights: Develop propensity models to identify expansion opportunities and churn risks before they materialize in the ledger.

- Architect Finance Data: Design and maintain curated datasets that serve as the single source of truth.

- Model Customer Value: Define and iterate on our LTV frameworks, providing a clear linkage between product engagement and long-term financial outcomes.

- Drive Scalability: Build automated, code-based forecasting workflows that increase the speed, reliability, and granularity of our financial planning.

### What will I be doing?

- Predictive Modeling and Forecasting Systems: Build and own probabilistic and time-series models that project ARR performance across renewals and usage-based motions.

- Data and Analytical Infrastructure: Own the end-to-end data pipeline for finance, transforming raw product usage and billing data into curated, model-ready datasets in our data warehouse.

- Analytical Problem Solving: Translate ambiguous business questions into structured data science projects.

- Business Partnership & Communication: Partner with Sales, Product, and Data Engineering to align our financial models with actual customer behavior and product roadmaps.

### What skills do I need?

- 5 to 8 years of experience in Data Science, Strategic Finance, or Revenue Analytics, with a deep focus on SaaS or usage-based business models.

- Advanced Technical Skills: High proficiency in Python (pandas, scikit-learn) and Expert-level SQL. Experience with forecasting libraries (e.g., Prophet, Nixtla) is a major plus.

- System Design Mindset: Experience building scalable data pipelines and production-grade analytical tools, not just one-off spreadsheets.

- SaaS Mastery: Strong understanding of NRR, LTV, Churn, and the relationship between product usage and revenue.

- Communication: Ability to translate technical work into business insight and influence stakeholders through data-driven storytelling.

- Business Judgment: A focus on accuracy and a "Product Sense" that allows you to see the human behavior behind the data points.

- AI-Augmented Productivity: Proficiency in leveraging AI-native development tools (e.g. Cursor, Claude Code) to accelerate the development of data pipelines, model prototyping, and code documentation.

### What Success Looks Like

- Automated forecasting models that are more accurate, granular, and less manual than previous iterations.

- A clear Propensity Score integrated into our planning that successfully predicts customer expansion and contraction.

- Scalable, code-based workflows that reduce the time-to-insight for the Existing Business team.

- High confidence from leadership in our ability to predict the financial impact of changing customer usage patterns.
