Use ML models to predict seller performance, identify growth gaps, and provide agent-based recommendations (e.g., campaign design, pricing, and promotions). 4. Collaborate with cross-functional partners (product, data science, operations) to design and deliver 0-to-1 projects that fundamentally reshape how merchants grow, impacting millions of daily sales across key categories (beauty, fashion, health, etc.). 5. Build lead-scoring models, merchant tiering algorithms, outreach optimization systems, and knowledge graphs to enhance onboarding and retention efficiency. 6.
