We are witnessing a massive shift of consumer presence from offline to online. With it, there is a need for technologies that enable online businesses to thrive. Bolt is at the center of this universe leading the next generation of ecommerce, having created a best-in-class buying experience from checkout to fraud detection, payments and more. With our help, retailers can successfully compete with the online retail giants that have the means to invest in technology.
The Data Platform team works closely with all teams and cross-functional partners (including product, engineering, and data analysts) to build a foundational data stack powering business analytics.
We are looking for someone to play a mission-critical role in designing and building the data mining algorithms, and data analytics pipelines at Bolt. We’re looking for someone with the experience, creativity, and passion for producing world-class technology who can support our product, leadership and marketing teams with insights gained from analyzing our data. Other teams at Bolt, other companies, and consumers alike will rely heavily on what you build, and you’ll have a ton of trust and responsibility.
