Responsibilities

The Data Science team at Block turns unique customer and product data into decisions that expand access to financial services.

Our Lending team powers decisioning behind Cash App Borrow, Afterpay, Square Loans, and the next generation of first-party credit products.

We’re looking for a Product Data Scientist to help build, measure, and improve credit products that serve customers traditional credit systems often miss.

You’ll partner closely with product, engineering, and risk teams to define metrics, evaluate experiments, understand customer behavior, and turn ambiguous product questions into clear decisions.

This is an agentic data science role.

You’ll use AI tools and agent workflows to move faster and think more rigorously across the full data science loop: exploring messy datasets, building pipelines, stress-testing hypotheses, evaluating product changes, and turning analysis into decisions.
