Why Here?
Zalando is a leading pan-European ecosystem for fashion and lifestyle e-commerce, connecting customers, brands, and partners across 25 markets. This role is within the Search & Discovery team, which serves as the insights, measurement and experimentation backbone of the Visibility program, turning data into strategic decisions that shape product development and marketplace health.

As Senior Applied Scientist at Zalando, you will design and execute analytical frameworks for the Visibility domain with a focus on unbiased platform health metrics. You will lead an experimentation roadmap that connects short-term signals to long-term platform dynamics and trade-offs. Additionally, you will apply quasi-experimental methods like double machine learning and causal forests to establish causal insights where randomized tests fall short, while building monitoring systems that detect marketplace imbalances early.
