About Rundoo ℹ️

Rundoo’s mission is to build cutting-edge software that helps building materials suppliers enhance their businesses. Think of your local hardware store or mom and pop shop—these are our clients who we partner with across the country. From paint to hardware to flooring, stores across these industries sell over $1T of building materials annually using outdated, on-premises systems. We’re aiming to change by being the first in the industry to empower independent supply stores with best-in-class technology.

Backed by leading investors including Bessemer and CRV, we've raised $18M across three rounds and are growing quickly. Our team is made up of builders, sellers, and industry veterans with a shared goal: to bring modern technology to an overlooked industry.

You'll be based out of Chicago / Chicagoland and support the data science and revenue operations in building an efficient and scalable GTM muscle. You’ll report to Rundoo’s Head of Data Science, Amrit, and work with members from our go-to-market team. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on leveraging data-driven techniques and programming to power insights and drive growth at a fast-paced startup. You’ll be based in the Chicago office.

What you’ll do as a Data Science Intern at Rundoo 🗒️
  • Analyze data on product, sales and GTM hypotheses.

  • Translate product, sales and GTM requests into data problems & execute on them.

  • Build utilities to orchestrate and connect data across different tools and services.

Requirements ☑️
  • Based in Chicago or surrounding suburbs with flexibility to work from our office.

  • You are comfortable working in Python and using Git to track your work (~ 1 year of experience with these tools). We expect you to be familiar with Pandas and writing performant code (e.g. vectorized operations, parallel processing).

  • You document your work well, in a manner that support reproducibility of your work.

  • You are able to learn how to work with different APIs or tools on your own.

Bonus points 🌟
  • Experience in research environments using data to answer real-world problems.

Compensation 💵
