WHY WE NEED YOU? GLAD YOU ASKED...

We are seeking a versatile and highly skilled Data Scientist to join our dynamic team. This role is pivotal in driving data-driven decision-making across our B2C and Adtech initiatives, with occasional contributions to our B2B sector. You will be responsible for developing sophisticated models, conducting deep-dive analyses, and extracting actionable insights from complex datasets to optimize user experience and advertising performance.

This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of consumer technology and advertising, influencing the direction of our data products under the mentorship of the Director of Data Science. We offer a collaborative environment where innovation is encouraged and data is at the heart of everything we do.

The successful candidate will report directly to the Director, Data Science & Machine Learning, working closely with leadership to align data strategies with business objectives.

Please note this is a contract role until March 2027 and we are only considering candidates who are eligible to work in Canada and can work in a Hybrid model at our Oakville, ON, Canada location. 

WHAT'S THE DAY TO DAY LIKE?

  • B2C & Adtech Optimization: Design and implement machine learning models to improve customer acquisition, retention, and lifetime value. Optimize ad delivery algorithms and attribution modeling to maximize ROI in the Adtech space.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Product, Marketing, and Engineering teams to define key performance indicators (KPIs) and deliver data products that solve real-world business problems.

  • Advanced Analytics: Conduct end-to-end analysis, including data collection, cleaning, exploratory data analysis, and visualization. Translate technical findings into compelling narratives for non-technical stakeholders.

  • B2B Support: Provide analytical support for B2B initiatives, focusing on lead scoring, churn prediction, and market segmentation as needed.

  • Strategic Reporting: Maintain a close reporting line with the Director to ensure technical roadmaps are executed efficiently and insights are integrated into the broader FY26 data strategy.

WE ARE HOPING YOU HAVE

  • Degree in one of the STEM disciplines (preferably Master’s or PhD in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related quantitative field but not required) 

  • 3+ years of experience in data science, specifically within B2C or Adtech environments.

  • Expertise in Python or R, and advanced proficiency in BigQuery for data extraction and manipulation.

  • Hands-on experience with Scikit-learn, TensorFlow, Numpy, Scipy or PyTorch.

  • Strong understanding of digital advertising metrics (CPM, CPC, ROAS) and consumer behavior modeling.

  • Experience with distributed computing environments (spark for example)

  • Skills in graphical data visualization (Matplotlib or similar)

  • Strong communication skills, including the ability to explain complex ideas to an audience with a non-technical background

NICE TO HAVE

  • Experience developing Deep Learning solutions in industry/research.

  • Bonus if this experience is applied to large datasets where distributed data frameworks are necessary
