The Models team is a core element of the targeting performance. It leverages machine learning and a strong business understanding to directly impact the product’s financial performance. It’s composed of mostly senior Data Analysts, Analytics Engineers, Data Engineers and Data Scientists/ML Engineers who iterate together on finding and building the next performing iteration.
