Data Scientist

Are you ready to learn fast and have a real impact in your job?

Join Odoo, a growing software company with an open source product,

a huge global community, as well as a fun and exciting work environment.

We are now looking for a Data Scientist to join our FP&A team. This person will play a strategic role in making the most of transactional data. Our Data Scientist will improve efficiency, anticipate risks, and make informed decisions to optimize commercial and financial operations.

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Data Scientist to join our Finance department. As a Data Scientist, you will play a central role in analysing large datasets, identifying patterns, and developing predictive models to enhance our FP&A department.

You will analyse transaction data, such as purchases, payments or transfers, to detect trends and patterns. Another key role is to optimise transaction processes to improve efficiency. For example, by analysing processing times, bottlenecks or transaction failure rates, you will suggest adjustments to smooth operations and reduce costs.

You'll build cash flow or revenue forecasting models based on historical transaction trends. These forecasts will help Odoo to better manage their budget and anticipate their cash flow needs. You'll monitor transaction performance, in terms of success rate, turnaround time, and customer satisfaction. Thanks to these analyses, Odoo will be able to adjust its strategies to improve the overall performance of its transactional services.

Your work will directly impact our ability to deliver secure, efficient, and optimized analysis within our company.
