You’ll collaborate closely with software engineers, analysts and product managers within these teams as well as across the wider business to ensure we’re building high quality models and tooling that meet business requirements.
We are seeking a Data Scientist who will:
Design, develop, and implement statistical models and algorithms to analyze the effectiveness of various marketing channels and tactics.
Create and refine marketing mix models to assess the impact of different variables on business performance.
