Data Scientist – Bucharest Romania

About the Role

VOX is building a multi-tenant Customer Data Platform for mobile network operators across multiple countries. Our platform ingests billions of telecom events and transforms them into actionable insights, segmentation, scoring, and campaign activation. As a Data Scientist on the VOX CDP team, you will work across Spark-based large-scale analytics, telecom event modeling, classification and clustering, scoring systems, and audience intelligence features. You will leverage Iceberg/Nessie datasets and collaborate closely with Data Engineers and Product to build models that power user segmentation, sender profiling, and activation use cases.

This is a role for someone excited by massive event data, ML at scale, and advanced behavioral modelling.

Responsibilities

Exploratory & Descriptive Analytics (Spark + Dremio)

• Analyze high-volume telecom datasets
• Build large-scale EDA workflows using Spark (batch + distributed analytics)
• Use Dremio to explore, validate, and aggregate Iceberg data efficiently
• Produce actionable insights on user behavior, engagement, messaging patterns, and campaign outcomes

 Feature Engineering & Data Modeling (Python + Spark)

• Develop scalable feature sets for:
  Relevance scoring
  Sender categorization
  Engagement propensity
  Audience quality/quantity modelling
  Cohort analysis
• Build reusable transformation pipelines on Spark that integrate directly into Iceberg tables
• Work with Data Engineers to deploy feature pipelines into production environments

ML Model Development (Classification, Clustering, Scoring)

• Build models for telecom-specific use cases, including:
  Category prediction for senders
  RFU scoring refinement
  User-level behavioral segmentation
  Anomaly detection on message activity
  Propensity and engagement ML models
• Select and implement appropriate ML techniques (tree-based models, embedding, clustering, graph-based grouping, etc.)
• Evaluate model performance with robust offline validation strategies

Campaign & Audience Intelligence

• Develop analytical models for campaign performance:
  Response modelling
  Lift analysis
  Control vs. exposed cohort evaluation
  Confidence intervals and campaign impact scoring
• Build audience scoring and relevancy models used directly in VOX’s segmentation engine
• Work with product teams to define intelligence features that help MNOs select the strongest audiences

Model Deployment & Operationalize (CI/CD + Kubernetes)

• Package models and feature pipelines for deployment in multi-tenant MNO clusters
• Version and manage model releases via Git-based CI/CD
• Ensure reliable execution of batch scoring jobs on Kubernetes/Spark
• Monitor model health, drift, and performance across multiple deployments

Experimentation & Validation

• Design and evaluate experiments (A/B, multivariate, holdout cohorts)
• Build frameworks for causal measurement in messaging and telecom campaigns.
• Validate assumptions using statistical tests and robust confidence intervals.

Collaboration & Product Development

• Work closely with Data Engineers to ensure features and models are aligned with Iceberg/Nessie patterns
• Collaborate with Product to define new intelligence features in the VOX CDP
• Support customer-facing teams with insights, findings, and data stories
• Ensure models respect all PII and compliance rules across multi-tenant deployments.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience as a Data Scientist, ML Engineer, or similar role
• Strong Python skills (must-have) for modeling, feature engineering, and data analysis
• Experience working with distributed analytics using Spark
• Strong SQL skills and comfort working with Iceberg datasets via engines like Dremio or Trino
• Solid background in machine learning (classification, clustering, time-series, scoring)
• Experience with model deployment, versioning, and CI/CD workflows
• Familiarity with building data products on top of large event datasets
• Understanding of PII handling, compliance requirements, and secure data processing
• Ability to work in multi-environment, multi-deployment contexts (dev/test/prod + multiple MNOs)

Nice to Have

• Experience with telecom datasets
• Knowledge of audience-building, relevancy scoring, or marketing activation models
• Experience with ML observe-ability (drift monitoring, model health checks)
• Understanding of Nessie branching workflows and Iceberg snapshot logic
