Data Scientist for a fast growing SaaS company

We believe businesses around the world should have access to open data, helping them to better understand their market and competition - and how it will evolve. Simply put, leverage prescriptive intelligence, and gain foresight by answering the questions that give a competitive edge! 

Our vision is to answer questions in every industry, but we have started with e-commerce and real estate where we collect the right data to forecast & predict answers to questions like this: 

• Which company is about to move in within the next 12 months? 

• Which companies will grow? 

• How many web shops deliver cosmetics in different countries? 

• What is the average delivery time for all webshops? 

• How can we reduce CO2 footprint? 

We are a start-up/scale-up company that have already proven that our platform is attractive on the market. We have clients in 15 different markets throughout Europe. Our vision is bold, and we are fully committed to reaching it, no matter what. 

Tembi is developed by an internal team that possesses all the competencies involved in building data driven SaaS web products. We have data engineers, data scientists, data analysts, software engineers, UI/UX designers, frontend developers and agile coaches.

We believe in agile ways of working and apply a start-up mentality in everything we do.
