Job Description

About the team:

 

Cabify Data Team is part of the product team based in Madrid and include an eclectic bunch of awesome people. While cultivating sustainable 'smart cities' is gaining momentum, and it seems that everyone (and their brother) wants to be part of making this happen even if it is just by introducing 10 GPS bikes in their town, Cabify is one of the very few places where you can not only test and learn, but also implement great ideas that will inevitably impact how our cities will look in 20 years time.

Particularly at Data Science Team you would be working with a very high performance set of teammates (currently 8 people, expected to grow to 13 in 2019) with access to all data within the organization. At Data Science we use a state-of-the-art infrastructure that allows us to dimension problems, build prototypes and run experiments at a very fast pace. We have already in place a world-class data architecture and infrastructure, both from production and analytics. We also have an exceptional Data Engineering team that provides the support and pipelines necessary to do real Data Science.

Being mobility as service a very new field, you will find yourself making huge impacts because we often face problems no one ever faced before. Deciding how to charge for a ride, which car should pick up a certain passenger or how should we more wisely invest our growth effort are real-time decisions we have already proved we can make an impact (you can see by yourself exhibit 1, exhibit 2), and we are sure with amazing individuals such as you joining the team we will get them significantly better.

If ride hailing was not enough of a challenge, Data Science Team is now also expected to significantly contribute to the hyper growth of MOVO, our electric motorbikes and kick-scooters brand. If you also love our cities to go greener, it is the perfect time to join us.

 

Data at Cabify

 

There are three things that we believe differentiate this offer at Cabify from most of the Data Science positions you see everywhere:

  • We have already in place a world-class data architecture and infrastructure, both from production and analytics. We also have an exceptional Data Engineering team that provides the support and pipelines necessary to do real Data Science.
  • We have a truly exceptional Data Science team. We come from all sorts of backgrounds: physics, software engineering, mathematics, industrial engineering, telecommunications, etc. and we hold ourselves to the most rigorous standards.
  • Very high probability of making real impact on the world. Being mobility-as-a-service a very new industry and Cabify a company with global reach, the work we do is bound to have a massive and immediate impact. It’s part of what makes this place really attractive to work as a Data Scientist.

As a Data Scientist at Cabify you will be working with Cloud and BigData technologies in a fast-paced and dynamic environment to prototype and develop solid data driven solutions and derive meaningful and actionable insights for the whole business to use.

As you can imagine this is an extremely exciting time for Cabify and the Data Science team, and people who join us now are guaranteed to have a huge impact in the business and the future of cities. Data Science team currently hosts 8 exceptional data wizards and we are looking for more people with “superpowers”.
