Your submission has been received and we will get back to you by next week with loads of exciting next steps!

If youā€™re really passionate about data and youā€™re craving for a real adventure, GOJEK is the right place for you because GOJEKā€™s Data Scientists do a lot more than just typing ā€œimport xgboost as xgbā€ all day.

What do GOJEKā€™s Data Scientists do?

We actually utilize data to be actionable insight that has the power to solve the problems weā€™re facing. Then, we process the data to optimize the app for our users, drivers, food vendors, masseuses and other 2 million people whose lives depend on our app, daily!

What are the problems that GOJEKā€™s Data Scientists have solved?

We know itā€™s such a hassle to coordinate with your drivers to pick you up in a large mall or train station, thatā€™s why we want to help make your life easier! GOJEKā€™s Data Science team has come up with the Place of Interest (POI) feature that helps drivers directly arrive at that point without having you call or text them.

Or you might want to know how we decide which drivers to ā€˜allocateā€™ millions of times each day with the huge amount of data that will help optimize our decisions. The answer is simple. Well, sort of. We built the mighty Jaeger, a driver allocation system harnessing Machine Learning and real-time features to optimize multiple business objectives.

You have proved that you are one of the Norse Gods of Data, and itā€™s time for you to come home and actually use your superpower to make a real social impact!
