As the service scales, decisions about pricing, routing, fleet utilization, charging, network planning, and customer experience must work across software, vehicles, and field operations. As a Senior Data Scientist on the Data Science & Analytics team, you will own high-leverage marketplace and operational decision problems from framing through launch and iteration. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Lead analysis and decision systems for priority domains including pricing, routing, fleet utilization, charging strategy, experimentation, and network planning
- Frame ambiguous business and product questions, select the right analytical approach, and make clear recommendations with tradeoffs and expected impact
- Build machine learning, statistical, optimization, forecasting, and simulation models for marketplace, operational, and product decisions
- Design and analyze A/B tests, quasi-experiments, causal studies, and metric frameworks to evaluate features, policies, and growth interventions
- Partner with engineers to productionize models, decision systems, data products, and experimentation infrastructure
- Own post-launch decision quality by monitoring model and KPI performance, identifying drift or missed outcomes, and driving iterations with engineering and operating partners
