JOIN OUR DATA SCIENCE TEAM

We are a diverse team that analyzes the status quo, improves buyer & seller interactions, optimizes the user experience, and monetizes on the delivered customer value. For us, revenue growth is the good fruit of our work and not the goal itself.

We invite you to join a team that works with Real Estate platforms (Otodom, Storia, Imovirtual) across the entire EU region. A team that breaks through walls and builds cross-functional connections with everyone around. A team where a common mission and goals matter more than reporting lines. We build on each other, asking for help and support when needed, and we proactively support others.

In your day-to-day routine, you will have the opportunity to work on supervised models for behavioral classification, deep learning models for image classification, regression models for value estimation, as well as NLP and LLM-based models for various applications. All using Python and the AWS cloud. You will be exposed to key stakeholders, have direct contact with internal customers. You will have carte blanche to experiment and test things. And most importantly, you will also witness how your work impacts the day-to-day business of our customers.

What you will be doing:

• Work in the Data Science team from a platform and marketplace perspective.
• You will build models, tinker around them to make them work, test them, and eventually deploy them to production. You will see your stuff in action, and you will be able to measure the true impact of your models (less expected, yet a requirement)
• You will maintain strong relationships with stakeholders. This means asking a lot of questions to business people and translating their requirements into achievable projects. It also means collaborating with other teams, like infrastructure and data engineering, to get things done in an elegant and timely manner.
• Partner with Engineering and Product to deliver solutions (customer-facing and platforms) to our customers (internal and end customers)
• Work with Product Analytics to track the KPIs of different ML use cases and measure the impact on our customers.
• Partner with the Experimentation team to integrate the KPIs and their proxies into the Experimentation (A/B testing) platform.
• You will work in multi-functional teams, in a diverse, multinational environment, filled with people from Portugal, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan.
• Most importantly, you will have fun working with us :)
