At Odido, we’re investing big in the future of AI, and this brand-new role puts you right at the center of it.

Dit ga jij doen

At Odido, we’re on a mission to become the most customer-driven telco in the Netherlands, and data plays a crucial role in achieving that goal.

This is a new position, part of Odido’s large-scale investment and expansion in Artificial Intelligence, as we move toward a future where AI helps make every customer interaction more personal, efficient, and human.

As a Senior Data Scientist, you’ll develop and apply advanced predictive and generative AI models that directly influence our commercial performance and customer interactions. You’re not just a data expert, you’re a creator of smarter, more human experiences.

Your deep knowledge of both data science and telecom enables you to design human-like, conversational AI that enhances how customers connect with us across multiple channels. Most of your time will be spent working on Natural Language Processing (NLP), powering chatbot and voicebot solutions using the latest Generative AI models.

This role focuses on scaling and expanding current initiatives using cutting-edge LLMs. You’ll help internal teams work more efficiently, for example, by creating Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) models to support customer service agents, while also setting up new frameworks that empower customers to find answers faster and smarter.

You’ll collaborate across departments, translating complex data into real business value. That means delivering POCs that matter, converting them into production-ready systems together with our data engineers, and communicating your insights with clarity, tact, and confidence.
You’ll be close to customer feedback, learning fast, iterating often, and helping shape Odido’s evolution into a truly data-driven organization.

All of this, in an informal, open environment where innovation, autonomy, and personal growth go hand in hand.

Your Team

You’ll join our Data Science team, part of the Information Technology (IT) department; A diverse and ambitious group of experts from three continents. We work closely with both technical and non-technical teams across Odido.
You’ll collaborate with colleagues in B2C, B2B, Finance, and Technology, building models designed for production from day one.

You won’t just build solutions, you’ll see them come to life.

At Odido, we believe in people.
We personally review every application, no keyword filters, no automated decisions. That’s why we ask you to briefly share why you believe this specific role at Odido fits your experience and ambition. If it’s a match, we’ll notice.
