Founding ML/Data Scientist (Remote, UK)

MyDataValue
(1 day ago)
Job Description
- Unique data — Booking.com private API data, Airbnb channel data, and scraped competitive pricing. This dataset doesn't exist at most companies.
- Real impact — your models drive revenue decisions for thousands of properties.
- High equity for our stage.
- A compounding moat — every property we add makes the data richer and the models better.
Salary £70k–£100k · Equity 0.5%–1%.
Restrictions
- Telecommuting is OK
- No Agencies Please
Requirements
- A real data scientist who reaches for statistics and experiments first, and knows when a result is significant versus noise. Strong with time series.
- Causal by instinct — you don't confuse correlation with causation. You can design holdouts and A/B tests, and reason about confounders when a clean experiment isn't possible.
- Comfortable in the mess — real OTA data is dirty, sparse, and seasonal. You wrangle it, find the signal, and build features that predict revenue.
- Fluent in modelling — forecasting, uplift and causal models, and the judgement to pick the simplest thing that works.
- Ships to production — not a notebooks role. You write clean, deployable Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and get your models live in our Django and ClickHouse stack.
- A product thinker who cares about revenue impact, not what's technically interesting.
- AI-first — you use AI coding tools with multiple agents to ship faster, ideally pushing into self-learning ML or agentic workflows. If you don't already use frontier AI tools, this isn't the role for you.
