## Description (the employer's text)

Senior Applied Researcher will own well-defined marketplace efficiency problems end-to-end, from problem formalisation through modelling, deployment, and production monitoring. You will operate independently on complex problem areas, make explicit trade-offs between competing objectives, and partner closely with engineering to deliver robust, scalable solutions.

### Responsibilities

- Conduct in-depth market research and analyze trends to identify opportunities for marketplace growth and optimization
- Develop and refine metrics, dashboards, and KPIs to monitor market performance and guide strategic decisions
- Generate and validate hypotheses to address key market challenges, presenting insights and actionable recommendations to stakeholders
- Investigate anomalies and deviations in key metrics, identifying root causes and proposing solutions
- Build predictive models and advanced analytics frameworks to forecast market trends and inform resource allocation
### Skills

- 4–7 years of industry experience in data analytics, data science, applied research, or PhD + 2–4 years post-PhD in industry
- End-to-end ownership of individual marketplace models, policies, or decision mechanisms
- Strong judgment in trading off model fidelity, latency, robustness, and business impact
- Proven ability to move from abstract problem formulation to production-grade decision logic
- Hands-on experience collaborating with engineering teams on deployment, iteration, and monitoring
- Demonstrated ability to reason about system behavior under uncertainty, delayed feedback, and partial observability
- Modeling supply-demand dynamics as stochastic, partially observed, feedback-driven systems; formalizing unit economics, service quality, and LTV as state variables and objectives
- Design and analysis of experiments under interference, spillovers, feedback loops, and adaptive policies (e.g., switchbacks, clustered interventions)
- Practical experience with DiD, panel methods, synthetic control, double-robust estimators, and causal ML approaches in production settings
- Ability to distinguish short-term experimental uplift from long-run equilibrium shifts and cumulative feedback effects using time-series and dynamic causal methods.
