You will partner closely with business, and engineering teams to turn complex data into actionable insights and recommendations that drive profitable, sustainable growth. This is a high-impact role where your work will directly influence commercial decisions, customer engagement, and overall business growth.

Key Responsibilities

1. Advanced Modeling & Analytics

• Lead end-to-end development of predictive, statistical, and optimization models to solve complex business problems.
• Design and implement scalable machine learning solutions using techniques such as regression, classification, time-series forecasting, clustering, and optimization.
• Apply advanced statistical methods (e.g., Bayesian modeling, hierarchical models, causal inference, experimental design) where appropriate.
• Develop simulation engines and scenario-planning tools to guide strategic revenue decisions.

2. Data Strategy & Engineering Collaboration

• Collaborate closely with data engineering teams to design robust data pipelines and feature engineering workflows.
• Work with structured and unstructured large-scale datasets from multiple sources (transactional systems, external datasets, digital platforms, etc.).
• Support model deployment and lifecycle management in production environments.

3. Business Partnership & Strategic Influence

• Translate complex analytical outputs into clear, actionable insights and recommendations for cross-functional stakeholders.
• Identify high-impact opportunities where machine learning, automation, and optimization can drive measurable value.
• Partner with product, engineering, and business teams to define analytics roadmaps and measurable success criteria.

4. Technical Leadership

• Mentor junior data scientists and analysts; contribute to code reviews, model validation, and architectural decisions.
• Drive innovation by evaluating new modeling techniques, data sources, and tools to enhance solution capabilities.
• Collaborate with product managers to define analytics roadmap, technical requirements, and measurable success criteria.

Qualifications

• Masters or PhD in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, Economics, Applied Mathematics, or related field.
• 5–8+ years of experience building predictive models and deploying analytical solutions in production environments.
• Strong expertise in classical machine learning methods and statistical modeling techniques.
• Strong fluency in Python/R, SQL, and machine learning frameworks (scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Prophet, Stan/PyMC, etc.).
• Ability to communicate complex concepts to non-technical audiences and influence executive-level stakeholders.
• Experience deploying models in production environments and working with cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP)

Nice-to-Have

• Experience in pricing analytics, revenue management, promotion modeling, trade optimization, or related commercial analytics domains.
• Familiarity with pricing optimization engines, elasticity modeling, or trade spend management platforms.
• Experience working with syndicated retail data (e.g., Nielsen, IRI), POS data, or loyalty datasets.
• Knowledge of containerization, MLOps, or modern data stack tools (Databricks, dbt, Airflow).

Why Join Us

• Opportunity to shape data-driven RGM solutions used across global CPG organizations.
• A collaborative environment with strong partnerships across product, engineering, and commercial teams.
• Work on high-impact projects that directly influence revenue and profitability.
• Competitive compensation, growth opportunities, and a culture that values innovation and analytical excellence.
