Junior Data Scientist (Summer trainee)

Hello and welcome to start your next journey with Sellforte! 👋

We are a fast-growing team of exceptionally talented people and our story will be something you don't want to miss! We are on a mission to enable marketers to accelerate their growth by making smarter data-driven decisions. Sellforte is a Marketing Mix Modelling (MMM) SaaS for marketing teams to holistically evaluate and improve the effectiveness of marketing and promotional activities. We are not a company that only shows cool marketing metrics or fancy dashboards – we deliver real impact based on Bayesian methods and data science.

You will join a team of fifteen data scientists, who are the spine for our whole business. We ambitiously apply data science to the most relevant business problems, develop high-quality code and coding practices together with high level of automation, as well as relentlessly focusing on customer service, ensuring an unmatched end-user experience.

🎯 What you will do as a Junior Data Scientist (Summer trainee):

As a Junior Data Scientist (summer trainee), you will have a unique opportunity to experience both the product development and customer delivery sides of data science work. For instance, in one week you will be helping a customer delivery team to solve customer-related problems, and in another week, you will be helping a product or data science team developing a new method or improving an existing one. More specifically,

• Do exploratory data analysis with customer data (using e.g. Python and pandas), solve customer-specific issues and business problems.
• Help onboard new customers to our marketing analytics service/platform: set up data flow from customer to Sellforte.
• Participate in product development: communicate new learnings and insights, as well as develop new features and automation directly to the product.
• Collaborate with other data scientists and data engineers to implement and train predictive machine learning models, such as time series forecasting Bayesian models to statistically infer causal impacts.
  
  

What we hope from you: 🌤

• Interested in startups and the data science field.
• Good communication skills in English.
• Ability to identify and solve business problems based on data and quick analysis.
• Hands-on technical skills especially with Python.
• Positive and get-things-done attitude.
  
  

🎯 What we offer you:

• Temporary position between June and August with flexible starting and ending dates. Possibility to continue part-time or full-time after summer, depending on mutual interest and company needs.
• At least one week of paid time off during the summer.
• Compensation based on the TEK salary recommendations during the internship.
• Globally unique product that is developed with modern technologies
• A low hierarchy where best ideas win over titles or authority
• Smart people and smart ways of working: We choose the smart way instead of the hard way
• Enjoyable ride: We try to find that extra spark of fun that makes the journey worthwhile to ourselves and to the people around us
• Flexibility to find your work-life balance - We understand that nine to five doesn't fit for all
• Growth - both business and individual
• Flexible remote culture and F2F working possibilities. As a company, we are trying to support different types of working, online or at office. This means that teams and team members can choose what is the best way of working for them. As an example, we have fully remote employees and those who like to work from the office in daily basis.
