As a Data Scientist on the Pricing team you will work in a dynamic environment, embracing moving quickly to ensure data is at the heart of how Bounce prices its marketplace — for travelers, for partners, and for the long-term health of both sides.You will own the models behind how Bounce decides what to charge in every market, at every POI, at every store, and at every search. You'll work across Product, Supply, and Growth to manage two-sided incentives, contribution margins, and promotions, balancing short-term conversion against partner economics and lifetime value. Where you come in…Partner with cross functional teams and respective stakeholders to translate analytical insights into actionLeverage data to track key operational metrics in dashboards, develop strategy, and forecast performanceHelp develop and maintain our analytics pipelinesAdvocate for data and data-driven decisionsImprove our Data-Focused Agentic Layer to make operational insights self-serve for field and ops teamsBe an owner, taking a personal stake in the success of the product and the teamDefine the base price for each market, POI, and store — using demand, competition, partner economics, and willingness-to-pay signals — and build the framework that lets us update it as conditions changeDesign and ship dynamic pricing logic that adjusts price by time of day, day of week, seasonality, occupancy, and local demandBuild the search pricing algorithms that decide which stores to rank and at what price, balancing conversion, contribution margin, and supply fairnessManage the two-sided pricing equation — what travelers pay, what partners earn, and the take rate in between — and model the impact of changes on both sidesOptimize for contribution margin, not just GMV: understand the unit economics of each reservation and design pricing that compounds margin over timeDesign and measure promotions, discounts, and incentives for both buyers and sellers, including launch promos, loyalty offers, and partner-side bonuses — with clean read-outs on incrementalityRun causal experiments on pricing changes (geo holdouts, switchbacks, A/B where feasible) and translate the results into rollout decisions Your profile…Degree in a quantitative field such as statistics, economics, math or engineering, or relevant work experienceExperience with data visualization and orchestration tools such as Amplitude, Tableau, Hex, AirflowComfortable around data warehousing concepts, big data technologies, and analytics platformsKnowledge of Agentic Tooling: Claude, Jules or Codex are a mustStrong oral and written communication skills, and ability to collaborate with and influence cross-functional partnersAvid learner and practical problem solverProfessional proficiency in English, written and spoken2+ years of hands-on experience working on pricing, revenue management, or marketplace incentives at a consumer marketplace, travel/hospitality, ride-share, or e-commerce companyStrong intuition for price elasticity, willingness-to-pay, and demand modeling — and the methods to estimate them (regression, ML-based demand models, structural models, or experimentation-based approaches)Experience designing dynamic pricing or ranking systems in production, ideally with feedback loops between pricing, search, and supplyComfortable with causal inference techniques appropriate for pricing — geo experiments, switchbacks, synthetic control, diff-in-diff — and aware of when simple A/B tests are not enoughCan reason cleanly about two-sided marketplace incentives: how a price change affects conversion, partner earnings, take rate, and the long-term equilibrium of supply and demandComfortable working with contribution margin and unit economics as a first-class objective, not just top-line metrics
