We’re looking for a Senior Product Data Scientist to join our Insights team. You’ll partner closely with product, engineering, and machine learning to deliver insights, drive experimentation, and shape the future of Depop’s product ecosystem.

This role sits at the intersection of technical excellence and strategic impact. You will not only dive deep into data, pipelines, and experimentation frameworks, but also influence product direction, user experience, and commercial outcomes.

What You’ll Do:

Lead analytics and technical discovery for a core product area:

Partner with product managers, engineers, and ML scientists to explore opportunities through advanced analytics. You'll apply analytical methods (e.g. statistical methods) and work with ML practitioners to assess algorithmic impact, define success metrics, and shape product direction with a strong technical foundation.

Influence product and business strategy:

Provide a strategic lens to product thinking—connecting your domain insights and helping the product team ladder up to company-wide goals. Be a thought partner and challenge assumptions, raise the quality of decision-making, and help drive a culture of evidence-based thinking.

Design and run experiments:

Define hypotheses, implement A/B tests, and rigorously evaluate impact with deep dives and customer behaviour insights to inform roll out decisions and future product development.

Work together with other teams to enable self-serve data driven decision making:

Collaborate with product, platform and data teams to ensure scalable, accurate datasets for analysis. Develop dashboards and reporting that drive awareness and actionable insights.

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong SQL skills and experience querying large, complex datasets

• Proficiency in Python, with experience in advanced analytics techniques, analyzing model outputs or supporting ML evaluation workflows

• Familiarity with ETL workflows and debugging data issues

• Proven experience with A/B testing design and interpretation

• Hands-on experience with visualisation tools (Looker, Tableau, or similar)

• Excellent communication skills—able to explain complex topics clearly and persuasively

• Commercial mindset with the ability to balance user and business needs

• Strong sense of ownership, highly organised, and proactive

• Comfortable working across ambiguity and fast-changing environments

Bonus Points:

• Experience in C2C marketplaces or mobile-first consumer products

• Experience working alongside machine learning teams or embedding data science in ML-powered product discovery
