A Little About Us

Evolve Vacation Rental Network is a high growth, Denver-based startup that is redefining vacation rental management and we’re looking for a smart, passionate, and entrepreneurial individual to join us.

Our team is on a mission to make vacation rental easy for everyone. We provide homeowners with the easiest and most effective way to generate rental income, while offering travelers the world's best booking experience.

We're conveniently located in Downtown Denver offering easy access to the Cherry Creek Bike Path, RTD Light Rail, as well as all the great restaurants, cafes, and coffee shops the city has to offer! Oh, and we also like to have a lot of fun.

The Position

We are seeking an entrepreneurial, innovative Data Scientist to join our all-star Business Intelligence team and help build out our data analytics capabilities!

This team and role is a critical element to Evolve’s success and helps position us as an innovator and thought-leader in the vacation rental space. This is an excellent opportunity to become part of a growing team and advance Evolve’s mission with data science solutions and insights! This role will require an individual who thrives in the potential chaos of a fast-growth startup environment, and is available M-F during regular business hours.

This Data Scientist will prioritize and perform analyses to provide compelling, actionable, data-driven recommendations to support Evolve’s business objectives and improve processes. Our dream applicant is a self-starter who is constantly looking for opportunities to improve processes, personally contribute to the success of the company, and provide thoughtful ideas that will benefit the team and optimize their output. If this sounds like you, we want to hear from you!

Responsibilities

  • Identify opportunities to implement data science solutions, including developing predictive models and scraping web data to improve and automate internal processes as well as the customer experience
  • Extract, transform, and analyze data on vacation rental homeowners, travelers, and internal processes to provide actionable insights
  • Define metrics to assess performance of Evolve’s owners and internal teams
  • Conduct statistically sound experiments to measure the success of a new process
  • Create visualizations to track metrics and effectively communicate and simplify the results of analyses
  • Communicate complex, technical information to non-technical audiences

Requirements

  • Strong collaboration skills: you thrive working in a collaborative team environment, but you're comfortable working independently when necessary
  • An engaged, self-motivated attitude that leads to a natural ability to work with minimal supervision
  • An analytical mind: all of your decisions are data-driven and supported by the data and research you’ve collected
  • Experience extracting and applying complex transformations to data and drawing decisive conclusions based on the results
  • Advanced knowledge of statistical methods
  • Experience with python or R
  • Experience with supervised and unsupervised machine learning models is a plus
  • Experience with the Salesforce Platform is a plus

Education

  • A related four-year undergraduate degree

Benefits

  • THE BENEFITS- We offer competitive pay, amazing health insurance, dental, vision, 401(k), commuter discounts, and equity in the company.
  • A VOICE - Our innovation framework encourages you to pitch your ideas and make real changes at Evolve. Half our current departments were launched by employees!
  • CAREER GROWTH - We promote from within, and often. Over 75% of our department managers – and half our leadership team – started at Evolve in entry-level positions.
  • THE COMMUNITY - It’s easy to make friends at Evolve, and we work hard to keep community strong with our all-company Town Hall sessions and lots of company-sponsored events.
  • TRANSPARENCY - Every month, our co-founders tell us how the company is performing, explain where we’re headed next, and recognize team members for jobs well done.
  • HANDS-ON EDUCATION - We learn every day, and expect you to, too. We can’t wait to hear your ideas for how to improve Evolve, and we’ll gladly invest in your education.
