Data Scientist

The role of a data scientist in the pricing science team is a mixture of exploration and support. The Data scientists or Pricing Science are the chief avenue of new techniques, approaches, and ways of doing things into our price modelling process. They are also responsible for the maintenance of the tools that are used by the price modelling teams. As a wider level the pricing science team are expected to contribute, along with other data scientists and engineers, to the development of our tech infrastructure. There will also be occasions where a data scientist collaborates with third party partners to develop new products outside of pricing such as risk or customer behaviour scores.
