The posting
We are looking for a Senior Data Scientist who can translate complex retail and supply chain problems into robust analytical and machine learning solutions. This role is critical in shaping our core AI capabilities - from problem framing and experimentation to model validation and business impact measurement. You will work closely with Engineers, Product, Analysts and Clients to ensure our models drive measurable value.
Responsibilities:
- Lead end-to-end data science work by translating complex retail and supply chain business problems into well-defined analytical, statistical, machine learning, or optimization solutions, including demand forecasting, inventory optimization, replenishment, pricing, and promotion analytics.
- Perform deep exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, experimentation, and model development, selecting appropriate techniques and clearly addressing trade-offs between accuracy, process speed, scalability, and business constraints.
- Define, implement, and evaluate model performance using both technical and business-aligned metrics (e.g. WAPE, MAPE, VN1, bias, and service levels), including backtesting and validation against real-world scenarios.
- Partner closely with Engineers, Product, Analysts and Clients to ensure smooth transition from research to production, including defining data requirements, feature logic, validation rules, and post-deployment performance monitoring.
- Communicate insights, assumptions, limitations, and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and contribute to data science best practices, reusable modeling frameworks, and mentorship of junior team members.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, or related quantitative field.
- 4+ years of experience in data science, applied machine learning, or quantitative analytics, with a strong foundation in statistics, probability, time series analysis, and optimization techniques.
- Proven experience building and validating forecasting, predictive, or optimization models using real-world, large-scale, and imperfect datasets.
- Strong proficiency in Python and common data science libraries (Pandas, NumPy, SciPy, Scikit-learn, Statsmodels); experience with PyTorch or TensorFlow is a plus.
- Solid experience working with SQL databases and collaborating with engineering teams to productionize models.
- Ability to design experiments, conduct rigorous backtesting, interpret results, and clearly communicate findings.
- Experience in retail, supply chain, or related domains is highly desirable; familiarity with cloud platforms, optimization solvers, or ML tooling is a plus.
What We Offer:
- An opportunity to participate in the development of AI systems with real-world retail impact.
- A collaborative and innovation-first culture that values speed, integrity, and technical depth.
- Competitive salary commesurate with experience.
