Build ML and optimization models that set real-time prices and ETAs at Lyft scale
Lyft is hiring an Applied Scientist for its Dynamic Pricing & Offer Selection team, sitting at the core of the Pricing org. You'll build ML and operations-research models that determine real-time prices and ETAs, productionize pipelines handling millions of calls per day, and balance supply and demand across Lyft's two-sided marketplace. This is a hybrid role in San Francisco (in-office Mon/Wed/Thu).

How do you evaluate a pricing/ML model against business goals rather than just accuracy?
Walk me through balancing short-term conversion against long-term retention in a pricing decision.
How have you collaborated with engineers to get a model live and monitored in production?
