The Job in a Nutshell💡

We are seeking a Data Scientist II (DS-2) to join our core data science team. In this role, you will build and ship models that power Mrsool's quick-commerce marketplace, owning well-scoped problems end-to-end — from analysis and experimentation through to production. You will work closely with cross-functional teams and senior data scientists to deliver robust, data-driven solutions. This position offers an opportunity to grow your craft on high-impact problems and contribute directly to the growth and success of the organization.

What You Will Do💡

Marketplace Modelling: Build and maintain ML and optimisation models across the quick-commerce stack — supply-demand matching, dynamic and surge pricing, recommendations, ETA prediction, and broader marketplace optimisation.
Butler & Conversational AI: Contribute to the AI behind Butler, Mrsool's distinctive conversational ordering experience — modelling customer intent from free-form, unstructured requests (text, voice, images) and mapping it to fulfillable, well-priced orders.
Experimentation & Causal Inference: Design and run experiments (A/B and quasi-experimental) across pricing, matching, recommendations, and Butler, and turn noisy marketplace data into decisions stakeholders can act on.
Feature Engineering & Data Craft: Engineer high-signal features from messy, real-world data — order events, courier traces, geospatial signals, pricing configs, and conversational text/voice — as a core, ongoing part of the role.
Production ML: Own your models through their lifecycle — data pipelines, training, deployment, monitoring, and retraining — and respond when a model or config drifts.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate effectively with product managers, engineers, DevOps, operations, and other squads to deliver seamless, data-driven experiences and to help diagnose live issues (e.g. mispriced brackets, elevated failure rates in a city).
Operational Excellence: Proactively monitor model and metric health, instrument your work with proper logging and observability, and contribute to reliable, repeatable analysis and deployment practices.
Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to improve measurement, modelling, and process; favour small, incremental changes that compound over time.

Requirements

What Are We Looking For❓

Years of Experience: 3 to 4 years of non-internship professional data science or ML experience in fast-paced product startups or high-scale tech enterprises.
Experimentation & Causal Inference: Solid command of A/B test design, power analysis, and quasi-experimental methods (diff-in-diff, instrumental variables, synthetic control), including awareness of interference in marketplace/network settings.
ML & Optimisation Depth: Strong grounding in forecasting and at least one of operations research / reinforcement learning applied to allocation, matching, or pricing problems.
Feature Engineering: Proven ability to build, select, and maintain features from large, messy, real-world data.
Production Engineering: Comfortable deploying, monitoring, and maintaining ML pipelines, with the engineering discipline to keep models reliable in production.
Technical Toolkit: Fluent in Python and SQL, with the ability to work efficiently against large-scale data.
Problem-Solving Mindset: A knack for thinking from first principles and a track record of delivering high-quality work while balancing trade-offs like reliability, l
