Workplace Type: remote

πŸš€ Join Our Remote Data Products & Machine Learning Startup! πŸš€

At Muttdata, we build innovative Data Products and Machine Learning solutions that help companies solve complex business challenges. As a fast-growing, remote-first startup, were passionate about technology, collaboration, and continuous learning.

We are looking for an analytical, curious, and business-mindedΒ  Data Scientist Semi Senior πŸΆπŸš€ to join one of our key engagements with a leading beverage company in Mexico. You will be the go-to person for measuring what really works in growth and marketing: designing experiments, estimating causal impact, and turning the results into decisions that drive customer acquisition, retention, and revenue.

This role sits at the intersection of statistics, economics, and marketing. You will work closely with marketing, growth, and commercial stakeholders, as well as with Data Engineers and Analytics Engineers, to move beyond correlations and answer questions like Did this campaign actually cause an increase in sales? or Which promotions and channels deserve more budget?. A strong analytical profile, methodological rigor, and the ability to communicate findings to non-technical audiences are essential. A background in Economics (or similar quantitative fields) is highly valued.

Responsibilities πŸ€“

  • Design, run, and analyze A/B tests and multivariate experiments (sample size and power calculations, randomization, guardrail metrics, interpretation of results).
  • Apply causal inference techniques (Difference-in-Differences, Synthetic Control, Propensity Score Matching, Instrumental Variables, Regression Discontinuity, uplift modeling) to estimate the impact of marketing campaigns, promotions, pricing, and loyalty initiatives when randomization is not possible.
  • Measure and optimize marketing performance: incrementality, attribution, ROI/ROAS, customer lifetime value (CLV), and marketing mix modeling (MMM).
  • Translate business questions from growth and marketing teams into well-defined analytical problems and experimental designs.
  • Develop analyses, features, and models on Databricks (notebooks, Spark, Delta Lake), collaborating with Data Engineers and Analytics Engineers on data pipelines and analytical datasets.
  • Build predictive and segmentation models (churn, propensity, customer segmentation) that support targeting and personalization strategies.

Required Skills

  • 3+ years of experience in Data Science, Applied Statistics, Econometrics, or similar analytical roles.
  • Hands-on experience with Databricks (notebooks, Spark/PySpark, Delta Lake) – required.
  • Solid, hands-on experience designing and analyzing A/B tests and online/offline experiments.
  • Strong knowledge of causal inference methods and their assumptions, limitations, and practical application (DiD, Synthetic Control, Matching, IV, uplift, etc.).
  • Strong foundations in statistics and econometrics (hypothesis testing, regression, Bayesian and frequentist approaches, time series).
  • Proficiency in Python (pandas, PySpark, statsmodels, scikit-learn) and advanced SQL.
  • Experience applying data science to growth, marketing, or commercial problems (campaign measurement, pricing, promotions, customer analytics).

Nice to Have Skills πŸ˜‰

  • Degree in Economics, Econometrics, Statistics, or related quantitative fields (ideally with a focus on applied microeconomics or causal inference).
  • Experience in CPG, retail, consumer goods, or beverage industries.
  • Experience with Marketing Mix Modeling (e.g., Meridian, Robyn, PyMC-Marketing) and media attribution.
  • Experience with causal libraries (DoWhy, EconML, CausalML) and Bayesian modeling (PyMC, Stan).
  • Experience with MLflow and Databricks workflows/jobs.
