- Strong programming skills in Python and SQL
- Experience working with cloud‑based infrastructureAbility to operate in high‑scale, data‑intensive environments
- A product‑oriented mindset with focus on impact
- Strong communication skills across technical and non‑technical stakeholders
- Experience in adtech, monetisation, or gaming

- Understanding of incentive systems or user behaviour modelling
Tech environment
- Production ML systems operating at large scale
- Real‑time data pipelines and decision systems
- Cloud‑native infrastructureStrong emphasis on statistical rigour and causal inference
- Tight feedback loops between models and real‑world outcomes
Why it’s compelling
