Work with large-scale data processing tools such as Spark, Hive, and Uber's proprietary machine learning platforms.

Collaborate closely with marketing, product, and engineering teams; participate in project planning, stakeholder alignment, and data knowledge-sharing forums.

Translate data insights into clear, actionable recommendations that influence strategy and execution.

Preferred Qualifications

1-2 years of experience as a data scientist or applied scientist, ideally at a company with global-scale operations.

Experience with reinforcement learning, @contextual bandits, natural language processing, or generative AI is a strong plus.

Familiarity with data engineering tools and large-scale data processing technologies such as Hive, Spark, or similar frameworks.

Strong communication skills; highly organized, collaborative, and capable of managing multiple priorities in a cross-functional environment.

Excellent problem-solving skills and strong business acumen, with the ability to connect technical insights to strategic decisions.
