THE CHALLENGE
Eventbrite is building the global platform for live experience and helping to build new connections between creators and their audience every day. The Eventbrite platform generates a huge amount of data about what creators should do to succeed, about how consumers really make decisions, and about what’s cool in your neighborhood. The Data Science team is charged with converting the massive potential of our data about events and customer preferences into product features that delight our customers and build a foundation of trust in our marketplace.
THE TEAM
The Data Science team partners directly with product development teams to deliver machine learning solutions directly into critical product experiences through offline and real time solutions. Our team members work hand in hand with product development teams such as Personalization, Search and Discovery, and Fraud & Risk Prevention to solve customer problems like finding their next great live experience. The six members of the data science team and their current embedded development teams are all US-based and fully remote with partnership opportunities developing with teams in Spain and India.
