THE ROLE & THE TEAM

Have you ever been deterred from buying the product you like on Zalando because of incomplete product information? Have you ever received products that don’t look similar to the image on the website, that you have to return and ask for a refund? At Zalando, we strive to ensure a smooth customer experience and prevent such things from happening. If you want to help Zalando build the next-Gen solution to monitor assortment performance, and identify poorly performed products (e.g. high returns) or bad actors, come join us!

WHAT WE’D LOVE YOU TO DO (AND LOVE DOING)

• Actively contribute to the team roadmap, and work closely with product managers and engineers to identify areas of opportunity and resource requirements to deliver impactful projects
• Conceptualize, prototype, and productionize state-of-the-art anomaly detection systems. You enjoy finding root causes and solutions to new complex problems and don’t mind getting your hands dirty (with pen and paper or in your IDE of choice).
• Communicate technical problems and results effectively with other team members and also with (less technical) stakeholders. Educate them about your products and solutions.
• Be the owner of the whole development cycle of algorithms - from opportunity discovery to production. Iteratively improve models and explore the art of possibility (e.g. new data sources, new ways of structuring the problem)
• Build model pipelines and streamline analysis processes, using common programming tools (e.g. Python, R, Scala, SQL, PyTorch, Tensorflow etc.)
