About the Role

As a Data Scientist at Wolt, your role involves diving into our data to solve crucial business problems. The scope of this role ranges from diagnosing problem areas to identifying solutions to designing experiments and ultimately influencing decision-making. This is a rare, operational, and actionable data-driven experience. When you join this team, you will be driving action from the frontlines, rather than just doing yet another analytics role.

Your job will mainly focus on identifying opportunities to resolve customer queries through automation & AI to decrease the need for human support and optimize the resolution time, building supporting KPIs & dashboards, conducting root cause analysis for product improvements, exploring cost optimization opportunities, and uncovering data-driven insights to refine product roadmap, automation & AI initiatives.

You're excited about this opportunity because you can:

• Passionately leverage your analytical skill sets to tell the story about business performance and align executives around what matters and why.

• Collaborate with senior stakeholders across Finance, Product, Analytics, and Support Operations, including country and regional heads of support and the overall head of Customer Service, to influence our operating model and how we structure our queues to provide the best support for our customers.

• Maintain and improve efficiency metrics. You will track the customer journey through the support, time to resolve queries, and other KPIs and advise on what we can do to improve.

• Create metrics and build data pipelines, transforming data into valuable information to be used in critical decision-making. 

• Use advanced analytics & statistical analysis to accelerate decision-making and build heuristics to quantify the impact of those decisions. 

• Work backward from understanding and sizing problems to ideating solutions.

Our offering to you

• The online delivery platform that Wolt is building will offer you interesting and complex challenges together with the opportunities to create a big impact with your skills.

You have the chance to decide the ways of working — a hybrid, at the office, or remote within the location above. 💙 Read more about our remote setup

• You would get to work in a company culture where we take ownership beyond the obvious, do common things uncommonly well, we think big but stay humble, do right by people, we treat others kindly and justly, recognize that if we don’t learn, we won’t stay still but fall behind and keep in mind that Luke was Yoda’s greatest achievement.

• Degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related field.

3+ years of experience in a data science or analytics position within an industry setting.

• Expertise in statistical analysis, using statistical software packages in Python, R, or equivalent.
