## About the role

We're excited to add a Data Scientist Intern to our Data & Analytics team. You'll work on the machine learning models we already run in production, including lifetime value, unit economics, and forecasting, making them more accurate and showing with evidence that they've improved. You'll also help Product, Marketing, and Sales divisions design A/B tests and interpret the results. Your work feeds directly into decisions across a marketplace that operates in nearly every U.S. city. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- PhD-level candidate currently enrolled in a quantitative field (Computer Science, Statistics, Math, Physics, Data Science, etc.) completing your PhD by May of 2028, transcript required
- Demonstrated research, coursework, or project experience applying statistics and machine learning to real-world or complex datasets
- Strong SQL and fluent Python for modeling are required, experience with dbt or semantic layers like Cube is a big plus, but we're happy to train you on our specific transformation stack
- Academic or project-based experience with A/B testing design or statistical hypothesis testing
- Strong problem-solving mindset and eagerness to diagnose and improve existing code and statistical models
- Intellectual stubbornness in a productive direction: you keep pulling on a thread when the numbers don't reconcile, and you don't ship an explanation you don't believe
