Responsibilities

Baselining:

• Work with the Data & Business Intelligence function at Peach Cars to review baseline data around listing and sale price to identify any trends, relationships, etc., on a car-by-car and portfolio basis.

Trial system design and testing:

• Design a rapid and replicable approach to identifying both listing and sale prices.
• Design a test protocol to assess the efficacy of the proposed approach, inclusive of timelines, dependencies, and success metrics.
• Manage the implementation of the proposed approach in a trial setting.

System improvement, iteration and LT scalability

• Review the inputs and outcomes of the trial, using both anecdotal and quantitative evidence to understand needed changes to the approach and document these.
• Iterate on the approach and launch a scaled-up trial across the entire organization, again identifying timelines, dependencies, and success metrics.
• Work with Product and other stakeholders to build the approach logic into an automated system.
