About the role…

Decisions are at the foundation of every Bounce experience. 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 action
Leverage data to track key operational metrics in dashboards, develop strategy, and forecast performance
Help develop and maintain our analytics pipelines
Advocate for data and data-driven decisions
Improve our Data-Focused Agentic Layer to make operational insights self-serve for field and ops teams
Be an owner, taking a personal stake in the success of the product and the team
Define 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 change
Design and ship dynamic pricing logic that adjusts price by time of day, day of week, seasonality, occupancy, and local demand
Build the search pricing algorithms that decide which stores to rank and at what price, balancing conversion, contribution margin, and supply fairness
Manage 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 sides
Optimize for contribution margin, not just GMV: understand the unit economics of each reservation and design pricing that compounds margin over time
Design 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 incrementality
Run 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 experience
Experience with data visualization and orchestration tools such as Amplitude, Tableau, Hex, Airflow
Comfortable around data warehousing concepts, big data technologies, and analytics platforms
Knowledge of Agentic Tooling: Claude, Jules or Codex are a must
Strong oral and written communication skills, and ability to collaborate with and influence cross-functional partners
Avid learner and practical problem solver
Professional proficiency in English, written and spoken
2+ years of hands-on experience working on pricing, revenue management, or marketplace incentives at a consumer marketplace, travel/hospitality, ride-share, or e-commerce company
Strong 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 supply
Comfortable 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 enough
Can 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 demand
Comfortable working with contribution margin and unit economics as a first-class objective, not just top-line metrics
