About the Role

We are seeking an inquisitive and impact-driven Data Scientist to join our Analytics team. In this role, you won't just build models—you will translate complex, unstructured data into actionable strategic directions that drive our core business forward. You will partner closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Operations to build predictive frameworks, and discover growth opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Experimentation & A/B Testing: Design, execute, and analyze rigorous A/B and multivariate tests to measure feature performance, user retention, and business impact.
  • Predictive Analytics & Machine Learning: Build, validate, and maintain scalable predictive models (e.g., churn, forecasting, customer lifetime value (CLV) and user segmentation) to guide business decisions.
  • Exploratory Data Analysis: Deep dive into large, complex datasets to identify trends, user behavioral patterns, operational bottlenecks, and unexpected growth opportunities.
  • Features Definition & Measurement: Establish and standardize key features to track for modelling and customer data platform.
  • Cross-Functional Strategy: Partner with product managers, executive leadership, and business stakeholders to turn open-ended questions into structured quantitative analyses.
  • Analytics AI Agents: Design, deploy, and manage autonomous AI agents that automate repetitive analytics tasks and generate insights.
  • Data Pipelines & Quality Assurance: Partner with Data Engineering to curate analytical datasets, build clean data transformations (dataform/SQL), and uphold data governance standard practices.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
