Team & Project Overview The NBS Data Central team powers analytics, data science, and AI capabilities for Worldwide Global Selling (WWGS). We build scalable data products, and insight-generation systems that drive seller growth across 10+ marketplaces. Seller Intelligence is a P0 foundation theme at the Global Selling level, formed by merging "One Tagging" and "Good Contact" workstreams. It provides seller identity, segmentation, and contact-reach infrastructure that underpins all downstream seller-facing AI workflows — including intelligent outreach, personalized recommendations, and automated engagement. Scope of Impact Own the science pillar for Seller Intelligence within a cross-functional POD (PM + DE + DS + SDE) Directly impact seller engagement metrics across CN, IN, LATAM, and East-Asia expansion regions Models and data products consumed by 5+ downstream teams (ESM, NSR, MKT,

Ops, ROC) Influence $100M+ annual seller GMS through improved segmentation and contact optimization Key job responsibilities Design and deliver seller segmentation and propensity models at scale — incorporating GMS, category, growth trajectory, engagement signals, and lifecycle stage. Build contact quality scoring and lifecycle management systems (coverage optimization, dormancy detection, reactivation modeling). Define success metrics, experimentation frameworks (A/B, causal inference), and measurement methodology for seller engagement interventions. Productionize ML models and data products — partner with engineering to deploy seller scores, contact quality indices, and recommendation signals. Explore LLM/GenAI applications: automated insight generation from seller data, contact intent classification, and intelligent report synthesis. Serve as the science representative in bi-weekly NBS theme reviews; present findings and proposals to theme Bar Raisers and leadership. Collaborate with BIE team members to democratize analytical outputs via dashboards and self-serve tools. Contribute to cross-marketplace seller behavior analysis supporting Global Expansion strategy (IN, KR, VN, LATAM). Evaluate, integrate, and iterate on AI systems — assess new AI/ML tools, frameworks, and third-party models for applicability to seller intelligence use cases. Basic qualifications
