The Company:

We are an ambitious, well-funded, high-growth global technology company transforming the hotel industry.  At Duetto, we are passionate about creating innovative analytical solutions to help hoteliers thrive.  Although we work hard, the work atmosphere is casual, flexible, collaborative, and most of all, fun.  

Duetto offers an open and collaborative work environment and believes that by cultivating a team with diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences, it will continue to lead the industry with its cutting-edge platform-based hospitality technology. 

Introduction:

We are seeking a Lead Data Scientist with deep expertise in pricing science, including reinforcement learning and mathematical optimization, to drive the next generation of our dynamic pricing engine.

 In this role, you will lead the development of ML systems that learn optimal pricing strategies for thousands of hotels, dynamically adapting to demand signals, business constraints, and market changes.

You’ll collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to design models that move beyond our legacy pricing approaches—enabling context-aware, self-learning price policies that deliver measurable revenue impact.

This is an opportunity for a hands-on, full-stack data scientist who thrives in ambiguity, has strong modeling intuition, and is energized by the challenge of building intelligent systems at scale in a complex, real-world domain.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead the development of intelligent pricing systems using reinforcement learning, constrained optimization, and simulation-based approaches.
  • Apply a combination of mathematical optimization, dynamic programming, and advanced reinforcement learning algorithms (e.g., model-free, policy gradients, model-based RL) to develop adaptive pricing strategies at scale.
  • Incorporate price elasticity modeling, demand forecasts, and business constraints into the optimization framework.
  • Build and validate simulation environments to evaluate policies offline and ensure robustness before production deployment.
  • Collaborate with engineering to productionize and monitor models in cloud environments such as AWS SageMaker.
  • Collaborate with engineering to productionize optimization models via batch or real-time pricing APIs (e.g., using AWS SageMaker).
  • Partner with product, pricing, and revenue strategy teams to define objectives and translate pricing insights into business outcomes.
  • Define and execute model performance measurement strategies, including causal inference and uplift modeling and A/B testing
  • Present findings, experimental results, and strategic recommendations to senior leadership.
Qualifications:
  • MS or PhD in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Operations Research, or a related quantitative field.
  • 7+ years of hands-on experience building data science solutions for pricing, decision-making, or control systems.
  • Demonstrated success applying reinforcement learning in production settings, ideally in pricing or dynamic decision environments.
  • Proficiency with ML/DL frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, DARTS) and programming languages (Python, R, SQL)..
  • Experience with Python-based libraries for mathematical optimization and reinforcement learning, and familiarity with simulation environments for offline policy evaluation
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms and MLOps tools (e.g., AWS SageMaker, MLflow) for scalable model development and deployment.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills, capable of conveying complex analytical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Prior experience in the hospitality, travel, or revenue management domain is highly desirable.

Experience designing model evaluation and impact measurement frameworks, including causal inference.

What you need to know about the Seattle Tech Scene

Home to tech titans like Microsoft and Amazon, Seattle punches far above its weight in innovation. But its surrounding mountains, sprinkled with world-famous hiking trails and climbing routes, make the city a destination for outdoorsy types as well. Established as a logging town before shifting to shipbuilding and logistics, the Emerald City is now known for its contributions to aerospace, software, biotech and cloud computing. And its status as a thriving tech ecosystem is attracting out-of-town companies looking to establish new tech and engineering hubs.

Key Facts About Seattle Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 287,000; 13% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, cloud computing, software, biotechnology, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $3.1 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Madrona, Fuse, Tola, Maveron
  • Research Centers and Universities: University of Washington, Seattle University, Seattle Pacific University, Allen Institute for Brain Science, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Seattle Children’s Research Institute
