Job Description:

At Remitly, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to access, move, and manage their money wherever life takes them. Since 2011, we’ve tirelessly delivered on our promise to customers sending money globally, providing secure, simple, and reliable ways to manage their money, ensuring true peace of mind. Whether it’s supporting loved ones back home, growing a business across continents, or pursuing new opportunities abroad, we’re not just here to move money— we’re here to move our global customers forward.

We’re looking for builders, reimaginers, and global thinkers who want to work at the intersection of technology, trust, and transformation. If that’s you and you’re ready to do the most meaningful work of your career—we invite you to join over 2,800 passionate Remitlians worldwide who are united by our vision to transform lives with trusted financial services that transcend borders.

About the Role:

Remitly is looking for an analytical and product-oriented Senior Data Scientist & Product Analyst to help shape the future of our customer experiences and product strategy. You will sit at the intersection of product, data, engineering, and business teams, translating data into actionable insights that drive growth, customer value, and operational excellence. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys moving between strategic thinking and hands-on analysis while helping establish a strong analytics culture in a growing fintech organization.

You will be responsible for designing and evaluating experiments, investigating product performance, and identifying root causes behind key business outcomes. Additionally, you will influence product roadmaps and help build a scalable data foundation that enables data-driven decision making across the organization. As AI capabilities rapidly evolve, you will also help identify, evaluate, and drive adoption of AI-powered analytics and decision-support capabilities.

You Will:

Partner with Product, Engineering, Design, and Business leaders to define success metrics, shape roadmap decisions, and serve as a trusted thought partner on data-driven strategy.
Generate insights that surface customer needs, growth opportunities, friction points, and emerging trends — and translate findings into clear business recommendations.
Design, implement, and analyze A/B tests and experimentation frameworks, defining guardrails, statistical methodologies, and best practices that scale across product teams.
Lead deep-dive investigations into shifts in business, customer, and product performance — identifying root causes and validating hypotheses with cross-functional partners.
Build analytical frameworks that proactively detect anomalies, risks, and trends before they become problems.

You Have:

7+ years of experience in Product Analytics, Data Science, Decision Science, or a related analytical role.
Strong expertise in SQL and experience working with large-scale datasets.
Experience designing, executing, and analyzing experiments and A/B tests.
Proven track record influencing product decisions through data-driven insights.
Proven experience with analytical problem-solving and root cause investigation skills.
Experience working with Product, Engineering, and Business teams.

What our Remitlians say

Evelyne Kuo

Program Manager - Technical

On the Security & Privacy team, I reimagine what’s possible by going beyond traditional compliance to create a culture where security is part of everyone’s day-to-day — through programs like our champion network, engaging training sessions, and company-wide awareness events that make security approachable and empowering.”

What our Remitlians say

Amara Agbo

Software Development Engineer II

To me, reimagining what’s possible means constantly learning new technologies and applying cutting-edge solutions to build localized systems that scale across currencies, countries, and regulations. The challenges we solve at Remitly don’t just strengthen our platform — they expand financial access for millions of people worldwide. That’s what makes the work both exciting and impactful.”

What our Remitlians say

Rosa Castellon Herrera

Senior Team Manager - QA

Stand for excellence means to me always raising the bar, pushing through discomfort, to deliver our best to our teams and customers every time. We come together as a team to share ideas to develop a rubric that helps us deliver impactful results.”

Stephanie Cameron

Senior Product Manager

On the product team at Remitly, I’m trusted to make decisions that drive real impact—not just for my team, but for the business and our customers. I’m encouraged to take ownership of problems even when they’re outside my immediate scope, to speak up, and to bring the right people together to solve them. Lately, that’s meant working on real-time FX and funding tools that support our treasury team in lowering transaction costs—so we can pass those savings on to our customers. That trust and cross-team collaboration make it easy to stay focused on what really matters in the long run.”

What our Remitlians say

Nadav Yekutiel

Senior Manager - Analytics

At Remitly, diving deep has meant pushing past easy answers to truly understand what our customers need. I’ve seen our analytics teams uncover insights that weren’t obvious at first glance — like identifying hidden friction points in the customer journey that, once solved, improved both experience and trust. This commitment to going beyond the surface makes our recommendations stronger, and it’s a big part of how we deliver meaningful impact across the business.”
