  • You will grow great people, line‑manage 10–15 Data Scientists and MLEs; create growth plans and mentor future Engineering Managers, transitioning them to leadership roles
  • You will shape the roadmap, translate commercial goals into measurable ML milestones; quantify opportunity cost, run A/B tests, and unlock incremental margin across business units
  • You will drive engineering excellence, champion code quality, CI/CD, observability, and a strong incident‑response culture
  • You will influence at scale, communicate complex technical trade‑offs in clear, non‑technical language and secure buy‑in from executive stakeholders

  • Technical Depth : You have deep expertise in machine learning, linear programming, and optimization techniques
  • Engineering Mastery : You have hands‑on mastery of Python (NumPy, Pandas/Polars, Dask, TensorFlow/Keras/PyTorch); and proven experience with serverless architectures (e.g. AWS Lambda, GCP Cloud Functions), microservices, and event‑driven systems (e.g. Kafka, Pub/Sub)
  • Agile Mindset : You are comfortable operating in ambiguous, fast‑moving environments with evolving requirements.

    Outstanding written and verbal communication and storytelling skills
  • Education : You hold a Bachelor’s or Master’s in Computer Science or related field; PhD a plus
  • Nice to Have : Prior work on dynamic fleet dispatching or price optimization.

    Familiarity with A/B experimentation and causal inference.
