Data Scientist (Economics)

The role

You're a data scientist with broad quantitative skills and a background in microeconomics, econometrics, or finance. You'll own data science work across Qogita's business — from forecasting and classification through to experimentation and recommendation systems — and act as the team's go-to on how prices are set, how buyers respond, and how market structure shapes commercial decisions. The Data Science team works cross-functionally with Product, Finance, and Commercial teams to build the analytical and modelling layer that drives Qogita's wholesale marketplace.

What You'll Do

• Build and deliver data science solutions across the stack — predictive models, segmentation, forecasting, ranking systems, and pricing models — depending on where the business need is greatest
• Act as the team's domain expert on pricing and market economics: take ownership of the modelling approach, analytical strategy, and how findings translate into commercial recommendations
• Research, build, deploy and maintain predictive and analytical models that reflect B2B buyer behaviour and wholesale market dynamics
• Design and analyse experiments and A/B tests, owning statistical validity and translating results into recommendations Product and Commercial can act on
• Apply a range of quantitative methods — regression modelling, causal inference, ML techniques — to business problems across pricing, demand, market liquidity and beyond
• Collaborate with Engineers to ship models via reproducible MLOps workflows, including experiment tracking, model serving, and production monitoring
• Communicate findings and model limitations clearly to Finance, Commercial, and Product stakeholders
  
  

What You'll Bring

• 3+ years working as a data scientist or quantitative analyst and meaningful exposure across ML methods and statistical modelling with a focus on microeconomics, econometrics or finance

Strong Python (pandas, statsmodels, scikit-learn, XGBoost, PyTorch) and SQL; comfortable working with large transactional datasets

Grounding in pricing and market economics — price theory, consumer behaviour, substitution effects, and how market structure shapes pricing power

Familiarity with econometric techniques for demand estimation, forecasting and measuring causal effects

Experience designing and analysing experiments with real business decisions riding on the results

Able to communicate findings and model limitations clearly to non-technical stakeholders across Finance, Commercial, and Product

Bachelor's or Master's in Data Science, Statistics, Economics, Econometrics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field
