What We’re Looking For:
  • Expertise in Pricing and Optimization:
    • 12+ years of experience developing end-to-end forecasting and optimization algorithms.
    • 5+ years of leadership experience managing data-driven products or enterprises.
    • Knowledge of advanced techniques, including convex optimization (hedonic pricing, portfolio optimization), stochastic processes (price fluctuation modeling), and optimal control (dynamic real estate pricing).
  • Technical and Academic Acumen:
    • MS or PhD with expertise in areas such as econometrics, applied statistics, or computational finance.
  • Collaborative Leadership: Experience working cross-functionally with product, engineering, and operations teams to set and execute strategies that drive business impact.
