Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Own and evolve production analytical systems and data products that drive business decisions for millions of users. Design and analyze experiments in collaboration with Product and Growth teams to improve user experience and monetization.
Requires several years of experience as a Data Scientist in a product company with strong Python and SQL skills. Must have a solid understanding of statistics, experimentation, and experience building production-ready data products.
Smallpdf was founded in 2013 with one simple belief: working with documents shouldn't be complicated.
What started as an easier way to compress PDFs has grown into one of Europe's largest product-led technology companies. Today, more than 17 million people use Smallpdf every month, our products have been used by over 1.1 billion users across 195 countries, and every day we power millions of document workflows - from PDF conversion and editing to e-signing and AI-powered document tools.
Our success came from rethinking an established market. Instead of building complex software for experts, we broke document management down into simple jobs to be done - compress a PDF, merge files, convert documents, collect signatures - and made those experiences intuitive for everyone. That product philosophy continues to shape how we build today.
For a Data Scientist, this creates an unusually interesting environment.
Every month, millions of users interact with our products across acquisition channels, pricing, subscriptions, experimentation, product adoption, search, and AI-powered experiences. Every feature launch, monetization decision, and product improvement generates signals at a scale that allows us to test ideas, validate hypotheses, and continuously improve the user experience through data.
This isn't a traditional Data Scientist role. You won't spend your days optimizing machine learning models in notebooks or publishing research. Instead, you'll own analytical products that directly influence how millions of users experience Smallpdf.
You'll work across Product, Growth and Engineering to:
design experiments
improve decision making
own production analytical systems
build reliable data products
uncover opportunities hidden in data
translate complex analyses into business impact
You'll be joining a small, highly autonomous team where everyone owns outcomes rather than tasks.
If you're looking for a role where you can combine engineering, statistics, product thinking and business impact, you'll enjoy this.
You'll maintain and evolve analytical systems that directly power business decisions, including our marketing automation pipeline and core semantic data models.
Work closely with Product and Growth teams to design experiments, define success metrics, analyze outcomes and recommend next steps.
Develop dbt models, improve data quality, monitor production pipelines and ensure stakeholders trust the data they use every day.
You'll rarely receive perfectly defined tasks. Instead, you'll partner with stakeholders to understand problems, explore data, identify opportunities and propose solutions before anyone asks.
Communicate insights clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, helping teams prioritize what matters most.
You'll work with Data Engineers to improve our analytical infrastructure, semantic layer, experimentation framework, as well as future AI evaluation systems.

Love understanding products and users.
Naturally investigate anomalies instead of ignoring them.
Enjoy solving messy, ambiguous problems.
Care about shipping useful work rather than perfect work.
Can explain complex technical topics to non-technical stakeholders.
