About Faraday
Faraday helps consumer brands find, convert, engage, and retain more customers using AI. Located in the historic Maltex Building in beautiful Burlington, Vermont, we’re a fast-growing venture-backed startup founded in 2012.
Our values
We believe in privacy and are committed to ending the widespread proliferation of consumer data. We believe in science and the power of statistically significant conclusions. We believe in equality and reject all forms of algorithmic prejudice. We believe in health and fun and encourage a positive work/life balance.
About our Data Science team
At the heart of the Faraday AI platform is a shared machine learning pipeline framework built from the ground up. Our data scientists work with clients and their Faraday account managers to carefully define one or more business goals for deployment on the platform. The pipeline uses these “outcome” definitions to perform ETL, training data formation, feature engineering, model building, validation, scoring, and deployment.
