What we’re looking for
We're looking for a Senior Data Scientist to join ARQ's Growth team as our first data science hire – owning all data science initiatives across Growth and Marketing, starting with predicting customer lifetime value across our markets and acquisition channels. You'll report directly to the Head of Growth and our COO.
You’ll be responsible for developing, maintaining, and improving LTV prediction models across our four countries, helping us make sharper decisions on growth investment, channel performance, acquisition quality, and long term customer value.
This is a high ownership role for someone who has worked on consumer growth, LTV, acquisition, retention, or monetisation problems in a B2C or D2C environment. You should be comfortable taking ambiguous business questions, turning them into measurable modelling problems, and building solutions that influence real commercial decisions.
What you’ll need
- 5+ years in Data Science, Machine Learning, Applied Statistics, Analytics, or a related discipline.
- Experience building prediction models in a consumer business (B2C, D2C), ideally around LTV, growth, acquisition, retention, churn, monetisation, or customer value.
- Strong Python skills and experience working with large scale datasets.
- Solid understanding of supervised learning techniques, model evaluation, feature engineering, and statistical trade offs.
- Ability to translate ambiguous commercial questions into structured data science problems.
- Strong business judgement and the ability to connect model outputs to real decisions.
- Experience working cross functionally.
- Clear communication skills, especially when explaining modelling assumptions, limitations, and recommendations to non technical stakeholders.
- Comfortable operating in a fast moving environment with high ownership and evolving priorities.
- Fluent in English, as we collaborate with teams across the globe.
