Staff Data Scientist

Mentimeter is an engagement tool with a clear goal in mind. To turn presentations into

conversations. Through real-time interactivity and clear visualizations, we get people to participate, engage and become more

productive. Transforming all those passive meetings, airless classrooms and drawn out trainings into valuable and memorable

moments.

We truly believe that you achieve the best results by doing things together. And that successful leaders need to

adopt a curious and collaborative mindset in order to get there. So with you at Mentimeter, you’ll be a big part of the ambition

to help over 1 billion people listen, learn and work better together.

Are you ready to shape

how Data Science influences company direction — not just individual team outcomes? Join Mentimeter as a Staff Data Scientist, a

role that exists to help us identify, understand and act on the high-value opportunities where Data Science can shape where the

company goes next.

The Catalyst department is on a mission to realise our company strategy and drive innovation, growth and

impact across Mentimeter using data, automation and generative AI. In this role you'll turn ambiguous technical, behavioural,

product, market and business signals into clear strategic opportunities, decisions and scalable analytical capabilities.

You'll operate confidently where the problem, ownership, approach or strategic implications are not yet clear, creating

direction that enables Mentimeter to move from uncertainty to commitment and action. Working across Product Analytics and Revenue

Analytics, your work won't just influence team and functional outcomes — it will help leaders make company-level decisions and

raise the ambition of the entire Data Science craft.

Success looks like measurable company-level business impact, stronger

strategic decision-making, and increased leverage from Data Science across Mentimeter. The strongest work here goes beyond

delivering an analysis, model or framework — it changes what Mentimeter understands, prioritizes and decides to do.

What you’ll do​

• Identify and frame company-level opportunities where Data Science can create

strategic leverage, and connect them to company strategy, growth, revenue, product outcomes and competitive advantage.

• Lead complicated and complex Data Science initiatives that span functions or departments — from opportunity discovery and

problem framing through to delivery, adoption and impact measurement.

• Design, build and productionise statistical,

predictive and algorithmic solutions — ML models, recommendation logic, customer and account scoring, segmentation, forecasting,

experimentation and causal inference.

• Help leaders make well-informed strategic decisions and trade-offs, making

important trade-offs visible and helping Mentimeter commit to opportunities that may cut across departments or materially

influence company strategy.

• Define and raise the standard for how Data Science contributes to Mentimeter's strategy —

best practices for modelling, code quality, deployment, monitoring, documentation, automation and responsible use of AI.

• Build reusable models, methods and frameworks that increase the leverage of the craft, and mentor data scientists and

cross-functional partners to raise the quality and impact of Data Science across the function.

• Communicate complex

analyses as clear narratives, trade-offs and recommendations that influence decisions across every level of the organisation.

We believe you have​

• A minimum of 12+ years of relevant experience in data science,

analytics, machine learning or a closely related field, including a track record of leading initiatives end-to-end.

• Problem formulation and strategic direction-setting — framing company-level opportunities where the problem, ownership or

approach is not yet clear.

• Strong business acumen — business sense, domain expertise and the ability to connect the dots

between Data Science opportunities and strategic objectives across sales, product, revenue and growth.

• Deep expertise in

machine learning, statistics and causal inference, with strong proficiency in Python and SQL and solid software/ML engineering

practices (git, code review, testing, versioning, monitoring, production-grade code).

• Experimentation, measurement and

decision science — building forecasting, measurement and analytical frameworks that improve decision quality.

• AI/LLM

building and emerging-technology judgement — evaluating new technologies (e.g. tools such as Cursor or Claude) and translating

promising developments into concrete opportunities for Mentimeter.

• Exceptional storytelling, communication and

stakeholder management — turning complex, ambiguous information into clear narratives that influence senior stakeholders and

company leaders.

• Company-level influence and craft leadership — creating alignment across functions, mentoring others,

and establishing reusable approaches and standards that outlast any single project.

• An understanding of GDPR-sensitive

data and data processing, with the judgement to know when to collaborate with legal experts on compliance assessments.

Nice to have​

• Familiarity with modern data tools such as Snowflake, Hex, dbt or similar.

• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS or Google Cloud.
• Experience in a SaaS environment — especially enterprise

go-to-market, revenue, customer lifecycle, product usage or retention data.

• A history of influencing company-level

priorities through data science, analytics or strategic insight work.

Not

required​

• Swedish is not required — daily work is carried out in English, and the

Mentimeter team currently boasts 50+ different nationalities.

• A traditional cover letter is not required as part of your

application.

This is primarily an onsite role located

at Mentimeter HQ in Stockholm, with a hybrid approach and ability to work from home up to twice per week.

Please note that

we do not offer visa relocation sponsorship for this position.

AI and Hiring at Mentimeter​

At Mentimeter, we believe AI helps us work smarter - but it

never replaces the human assessment, curiosity, and personal connection that define our culture and our hiring. We use AI as a

sparring partner: to bounce ideas, bring new perspectives, support structure, and make our work more efficient. But the meaning,

decisions, and interactions always come from people.

AI does not screen or decide on candidates.

There is no automated filtering, ranking, or decision-making in our recruitment process. Every

application is reviewed by a person.

Hiring teams may use AI to

support their work - for example, to structure notes, prepare interview questions, or organize their thinking.

AI strengthens our work, but it does not define it. At Mentimeter, we’re not building an AI-driven

hiring process - we’re building a people-first culture, where technology helps us listen, learn, and grow together.

Culture at Mentimeter

​At Mentimeter we believe in giving everyone a voice - regardless of who you are. So

we build a platform that does just that. Our platform is not only our product but also our organization. A platform where people

feel safe, where differences are embraced, a place where you can have fun. We strongly encourage applicants who are people of

color, LGBTQ+, women, people with disabilities, and/or formerly incarcerated people, and a college degree is not strictly

required. In order to give everyone a voice, we need to be as diverse as our users.
