About the role
Most Junior Data Scientists spend their first years building dashboards and reporting on what already happened. Here, you’ll work on models that run in production and shape what millions of users see every day.
You’ll join a small team of people who have built and shipped ML systems at scale, and learn from them directly. You get real problems from week one, and the support to solve them. Show us you can own more, and we’ll give you more.
Responsibilities
What You’ll Do 🎯
•
Build models that predict user value, engagement and reward behaviour, and see them live in our product
•
Run A/B tests on offers, rewards and ranking, and work out what actually caused the result
•
Build and fix the data pipelines your models depend on
•
Take on new problems with no playbook yet, from first idea to production
Requirements
What You’ll Bring 💡

•
You quickly see which number matters and which question to answer first
•
Proof that you aim high: a project, result or choice where you went past “good enough” when nobody asked you to
•
Bonus: a strong result in a Kaggle challenge, hackathon or competition, or a system you built and fixed yourself when it broke
