Data Scientist (R, Python, SQL)

Who we are

At Yieldigo, we build high-impact, data-driven pricing software used by major retail chains across Europe and the USA. Our R&D team is the brain behind the operation – we develop the analytical core, statistical models, and algorithms that transform massive amounts of complex retail data into precise, actionable pricing recommendations.

We are looking for a Data Scientist who lives for applied statistics and machine learning and wants to see their models running in a real-world product. You won’t just be “doing research” into a drawer; you’ll be a key part of the R&D team, collaborating closely with developers to power the computational engine that drives our entire application.

Our tech ecosystem includes Backend, Frontend, R&D, and QA. Within R&D, your primary playground will be R and advanced statistics, with a healthy dose of Python and SQL. We breathe Agile—think bi-weekly sprints, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives—and we take code quality seriously through rigorous reviews and modern dev practices.

Key Responsibility Areas

  • Evolve the core: Develop, test, and maintain the analytical heart of our software, focusing on statistical models and data workflows.
  • Bridge the gap: Collaborate with R&D and engineering teams to integrate complex algorithms into our high-performance computational engine.
  • Crunch the numbers: Apply advanced statistical modeling and ML techniques primarily in R, supported by Python and SQL.
  • Own the process: Participate in agile cycles, contribute to architectural discussions, and ensure our solutions are scalable.
  • Champion quality: Maintain high standards through code reviews, testing, and sharing best practices with the team.

How do we picture you

  • The Math Whiz: You have a genuine passion for applied mathematics, statistics, and the “why” behind the models.
  • The Coder: You are comfortable in a programming environment with at least 2 years of practical experience, ideally with a strong command of R.
  • The Critical Thinker: You don’t just execute tasks; you analyze the broader impact of your solutions on the product and the client.
  • The Finisher: You are proactive, independent, and have the drive to see complex projects through to a successful deployment.
  • The Team Player: You are open-minded, eager to learn, and—most importantly—you don’t take yourself too seriously.
  • The Communicator: You are fluent in English, which is essential for our diverse team spanning Europe and the USA.

What's in it for you

  • International team (8 different nationalities).
  • Work equipment of your choice.
  • ESOP (Employee Stock Option Plan) for top performers.
  • 5 weeks of vacation + Sick days.
  • Company mobile plan.
