JOB OVERVIEW

- ABOUT US -
We’re revolutionizing pricing strategy for short-term rentals by leveraging AI, automation, and machine learning to optimize revenue and maximize occupancy.

As we transition from a traditional pricing agency to a tech-powered, AI-driven SaaS solution, we’re seeking a highly experienced Senior Data Scientist to lead our data-driven pricing transformation.

If you’re not just looking for another job, but an opportunity to own & build a pricing AI engine that will shape the future of dynamic pricing—this is the role for you.

- IMPORTANT: THIS IS A SENIOR ROLE – PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING -

This is NOT an entry-level position. We are only looking for candidates with 5+ years of experience in machine learning, AI, or revenue optimization.
This role requires hands-on experience in building predictive models & automation for pricing or revenue-related decision-making. If your experience is limited to data visualization, reporting, or SQL-based analytics, this is NOT the right role.
No generalist data scientists. We need someone who has worked on real-world, revenue-impacting AI/ML models—preferably in pricing, e-commerce, fintech, travel, or related industries.
If you meet these criteria, we want you to lead and shape our AI transformation.

- WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING -

- BUILD AI-DRIVEN PRICING MODELS -

Develop predictive algorithms that analyze demand trends, booking behavior, and competitor pricing.
Implement dynamic pricing strategies that adjust in real-time based on seasonality, demand fluctuations, and guest preferences.
Use machine learning models to optimize revenue, minimizing risk while maximizing pricing efficiency.

- AUTOMATE DECISION-MAKING & REVENUE OPTIMIZATION -

Build data pipelines that aggregate real-time market insights and trigger pricing adjustments automatically.
Develop AI-powered pricing logic to replace manual intervention and scale our operations efficiently.
Integrate APIs with Airbnb, PriceLabs, and internal tools to fully automate price-setting workflows.

- MARKET INTELLIGENCE & COMPETITOR ANALYSIS -

Automate competitor tracking, market occupancy trends, and seasonal demand forecasting.
Create real-time alerts & dashboards to flag underperforming listings and pricing opportunities.
Leverage NLP & web scraping to extract insights from guest reviews, competitor listings, and market demand.

- STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP & AI TRANSFORMATION -

Work directly with the CEO to shape the long-term AI roadmap as we transition into a SaaS-first pricing engine.
Lead testing, deployment, and iteration of pricing models in live environments.
Collaborate with revenue managers and operations teams to integrate AI-powered decision-making into daily workflows.

- WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED -

5+ years experience in machine learning, AI-driven pricing, or revenue optimization.
Proven ability to build predictive pricing models that drive real business impact.
Strong expertise in Python, time-series forecasting, demand prediction, and ML automation.
Experience integrating data science models into automated pipelines & real-world decision-making.
Experience with API-driven automation to eliminate manual pricing workflows.
Strong problem-solving mindset – ability to think beyond theory and build practical AI solutions.
SaaS or e-commerce pricing experience preferred – but if you have worked in pricing-related AI in travel, fintech, or revenue management, we want to hear from you!

- BONUS -

If you have worked on AI-powered automation that replaces human decision-making, we’re particularly interested in your experience.

- WHY JOIN US? -

$10-12/hr starting salary + performance-based incentives.
Profit-sharing bonus tied to our revenue growth.
3% equity in our company as a key leadership member in our AI transformation.
Build a cutting-edge AI pricing engine from the ground up.
Work remotely with a flexible schedule – results over micromanagement.
Fast-growing startup in a high-demand industry – huge career growth opportunities.

- HOW TO APPLY (READ CAREFULLY) -

- STEP 1: SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION -
Send your CV & cover letter outlining:

Your experience in AI-driven pricing & revenue optimization.
An AI/ML project you worked on that impacted revenue or automated decision-making.
Why this role excites you & how you’d approach building our AI-powered pricing engine.

- STEP 2: TECHNICAL CHALLENGE -

If shortlisted, you will be asked to complete a small technical challenge related to revenue forecasting.

- STEP 3: FINAL INTERVIEW -

Interview with our leadership team.

- TL;DR – WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN US -

We’re transforming pricing strategy for short-term rentals, shifting from a manual agency model to a tech-first, AI-powered SaaS solution.

We need a Senior Data Scientist to build AI-driven automation, predictive pricing models, and decision-making algorithms that will define the future of pricing.

If you’re looking for a high-impact role where you can lead innovation, drive revenue optimization, and earn profit-sharing & equity, this is it.
