Job Summary
Get to Know the Team
The GrabX team a part of Grabs Tech Infra builds and maintains the experimentation platform used across all Grabs marketplaces. We help product and engineering teams make data-driven decisions by providing tools for A/B testing statistical analysis and measurement of business-critical metrics.
Our mission:
- Enable reliable scientifically sound experimentation for all product teams
- Develop causal inference and statistical methodologies to measure impact accurately
- Ensure the integrity scalability and performance of the core experimentation platform
We are looking for a Senior Data Scientist to join the GrabX team and lead the data science strategy for our experimentation platformbringing statistical rigor and innovative methodologies to drive platform evolution and reliable decision-making across Grab.
Get to Know the Role
Youll shape the future of experimentation at Grab. Youll optimize and develop A/B testing methodologies ensure metric reliability and grow the platforms capabilities for complex experimental designs. This includes developing solutions for platform contamination sample ratio mismatch and network effects all within our distributed infrastructure environment.
Youll report to the GrabX Engineering Manager and work onsite at Grabs One North Singapore office.
The Critical Tasks You will Perform
- You will design implement and validate statistical and causal inference methodologies to improve the accuracy and efficiency of A/B tests (e.g. variance reduction sequential testing quasi-experimental methods).
- You will partner with platform engineers to translate statistical concepts into production-ready features within the GrabX experimentation platform.
- You will define and standardise key business and product metrics establishing monitoring and validation pipelines to ensure data quality and metric reliability for all experiments.
- You will provide guidance to product teams on experimental design power analysis and result interpretationconducting complex experiments and communicating findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- You will develop and implement solutions for automated experiment analysis using AI agents or MCPs to grow data-driven insights.

What Essential Skills You will Need
- Quantitative Research Background: You have completed graduate-level coursework (Masters) in Statistics Econometrics Applied Mathematics Computer Science Operations Research or a related quantitative field with at least 3 years of professional experience applying statistical methods to real-world problems. This foundation enables you to develop novel methodologies for A/B testing and causal inference.
- Causal Inference and Experimentation: You have professional experience or academic publications in Causal Inference Experimentation Statistical Modelling or Time-Series Analysis. You can design experiments that account for complex phenomena like network effects and sample ratio mismatch in large-scale environments.
- Statistical Model Development: You have experience developing deploying and validating statistical models and metrics within a platform or high-scale data environment. You can write production-quality code that processes billions of events while maintaining statistical validity.
- Programming and Distributed Computing: You write code in Python or R and you have worked with distributed computing systems or scalable data processing platforms (e.g. Spark Ray StarRocks). You can implement statistical algorithms that run across distributed clusters.
- Technical Communication: You can explain complex statistical concepts to engineers and business stakeholders in clear terms. You can document methodologies and present findings through reports and presentations to allow informed decision-making.
