Guided by a shared purpose of helping people love where they live, we have a diversified portfolio of brands and solutions across different countries in Latin America, covering all phases of the housing journey. We also have a Technology Hub in Portugal. We develop technology and innovation to transform and enhance the overall living experience.
Location & Remote Work
Our technology team operates under a "remote-first" model, which means we work from home and can live anywhere in Brazil. We also offer the option of working from our São Paulo offices or partner coworking spaces, up to twice a week.
About the Area
In our Data Science team, you'll have the chance to work as a part of our product squads delivering features that enrich our product and a first class experience that we are known for. You'll work alongside brilliant minds, with different skills: Product Managers, Designers, UX Writers, Data Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, Software Engineers, etc. Be prepared for the job of your life - hard challenges, high expectations, intelligent life at work, meaningful conversations, outstanding productivity.
Some of the specific problems we work in the Data Science team include search and recommendation systems; customer experience enhancement using ML such as in automatic routing of tickets; pricing, liquidity and credit models; building a platform that enables us to develop and deploy all those solutions.
Note: This is a senior position. We expect you to have at least 3+ years of experience applying data science and creating machine learning models. If you have the skills, but are starting your journey in Data Science, please apply to the Data Scientist job instead.
Responsibilities
- Architect, develop and deploy machine learning systems to production. The main use cases are related to chatbots and search.
- Design and execute experiments.
- Analyze a wide variety of data (structured and unstructured, observational and experimental) to improve current models or create new ones.
- Apply the scientific method to develop LLM-powered applications, including testing different prompts, exploring and understanding LLM capabilities, evaluating agents and prompts, assessing AI application guardrails, and building PoCs to validate the feasibility of generative AI for product features.
- Participate actively in discussions and decisions regarding the whole Data Science chapter (Guilds, Design Reviews, Demos, etc.).
What we are looking for:
- People that are seeking to learn and deliver real impact through Data Science.
- Expert knowledge of machine learning concepts: regression and classification, clustering, neural networks, feature selection, cross-validation, curse of dimensionality, bias-variance tradeoff, model explainability, etc.
- Good understanding of the engineering challenges to deploy machine learning systems to production.
- Proficiency in Python.
- Some knowledge or experience with Deep Learning.
- Experience with technical advice for other data scientists (technical leadership).
- Excellent written and verbal technical communication skills. We're looking for someone who loves Data Science & Machine Learning and is willing to share his/her knowledge with the other members of the Data Science Chapter.
- Good English skills (verbal and written) is mandatory.
You'll stand out if you:
- Have a MSc. (or Undergrad + intense experience) in machine learning, data science, information retrieval, ranking systems, recommender systems, natural language processing or other relevant fields.
- Have experience with applied generative AI: AI agents, prompt engineering, LLMs finetuning (lora, qlora, peft), LLM routing, LLM monitoring, LLM guardrails.
- Have experience working at fast-growing startups.
