## Description

We're looking for a Product Data Scientist to join our Insights team to support our Shipping Team. You'll partner closely with product, operations, engineering, and machine learning to deliver insights, drive experimentation, and shape how every item moves from seller to buyer.

This role sits at the intersection of technical depth and strategic impact. You'll dive into data, pipelines and experimentation frameworks whilst helping shape shipping strategy, product direction and commercial outcomes.

What You'll Do

Influence product and business strategy

Shipping is full of big, open-ended problems. You'll pin down the right question, then work with the team to shape an answer they can act on. You'll help to inform our shipping strategy by connecting your analyses to broader company goals, helping the product team understand trade-offs, challenging assumptions and driving evidence based decision making.

Own analytics for Shipping

Be the go-to data scientist for the Shipping team - deeply understanding buyer and seller behaviour, carrier and label economics, and the end-to-end delivery experience, measuring performance and finding opportunities to improve outcomes.

Design and help evaluate experiments

Define hypotheses, monitor A/B tests, and conduct post experiment analyses. Provide clear recommendations on rollouts or iterations.

Enable self-serve data driven decision making

Collaborate with product, platform and data teams to ensure scalable, accurate datasets. Build dashboards and reporting that drive awareness and actionable insights.
