Open 5 months, first seen by us 161 days agoAs Senior Data Scientist, you will be key contributor within our global Data Science organization, shaping AI and machine learning systems that sit at the core of our marketplace platforms across Europe and Canada. You design, build, and operate machine learning and GenAI systems that run in production and matter to the business. You work on complex, ambiguous problems, exercise strong technical judgment, and take responsibility for outcomes - not just models. While this is a hands-on role, you are also expected to influence technical direction, raise the bar for engineering practices, and enable other data scientists and engineers to succeed. This position is permanent and based in Munich. What you’ll doRead the full posting

New Data Scientist postings at the employers we follow are down 3% over the last 5 weeks compared with the 5 before.
Each bar is one week of new postings. The darkest bars are the last 5 weeks.
Counted from the hiring pages we’ve followed for at least five weeks, so employers we add don’t look like growth. Updated weekly.
We file this job under Data Scientist, by the work the posting describes.
Data scientists use statistics and models to answer harder questions, such as whether a change worked, what demand will look like next quarter, or which customers are likely to leave.
Postings usually ask for Python or R, SQL, statistics, experiment design and common machine learning methods.
Unlike an ML engineer, a data scientist's main output is often an analysis or a first model, not software running inside a product.
