From adventure travel and backpacking to honeymoons and family vacations, we deeply care so that every traveler can make the best-informed accommodation choice at the absolute best conditions for every trip.

To further this goal we need to effectively market best deals across the globe and are looking for analysts to push our marketing efforts to new levels. As a data analyst / scientist you will optimize and scale our marketing channels, building state-of-the-art decision support systems, predictive models and bidding algorithms. You will work across Customer Acquisition tribe supporting marketers and analysts in their scaling efforts and everyday campaign management decisions.  

We are looking for a data expert with strong technical & statistical skills as well as a commercial mindset. It's a great opportunity for an ambitious & motivated analyst/scientist to transform their career in a fast growing & data-driven mature startup.

What you will be doing

• Optimize and scale marketing channels using performance data
• Build automated bidding algorithms
• Build predictive models: customer (lifetime) value, competition, pricing, market behavior, attribution, segmentation etc.
• Automate analytical processes around user acquisition
• Communicate proactively and educate the rest of the company with your insights

What a day in the office might look like:

You start the day by checking up performance of the channel and results of the AB tests based on your new bidding algorithm to see if any actions are required. During the daily team stand-up you present your latest findings on the competitiveness of a certain market and share ideas to improve our value estimation algorithm. After a team lunch, you'll meet with other analysts to brainstorm new ideas and prioritizing the backlog. At the end of the day, you'll set aside time to research a more effective way to select our itineraries.
