TL;DR
Principal Data Scientist (Experimentation): Building organisation-wide experimentation standards, tooling and statistical methods for a travel marketplace with an accent on causal inference, Bayesian approaches, measurement validity and low-traffic or long-horizon outcomes. Focus on designing and validating complex methodologies, improving platform health and mentoring data scientists through rigorous decision-making.
Location: London; hybrid work
Company
connects travellers with experiences through travel content, guidance and two-sided marketplaces, including , Viator and TheFork.
What you will do
- Set the technical standard for experimentation across Product Data Science, including A/B testing, quasi-experimental and Bayesian methods.
- Build protocols, frameworks and tooling that enable teams to experiment independently while maintaining rigour.
- Own measurement approaches for Viator’s most complex questions, including low-traffic surfaces and long-horizon outcomes.
- Develop and validate statistical methods through simulation-based verification.
- Serve as the final technical authority on measurement validity and communicate evidence and uncertainty to leadership.
- Mentor senior data scientists and improve experimentation through automation and AI capabilities.
