Machine Learning Engineer/Data Scientist: Wishlink
About Wishlink
Wishlink is a well-funded, early-stage startup, on a mission to shape the creator economy and change how people shop. Our mission is to build a hyper-personalized shopping experience for every user, which is creator-led, so that every user can get exactly what they are looking for. We are on a mission to define new charters at the intersection of two of the most prominent aspects of the internet - e-commerce and social media.
Team and Investors
We’re 3 founders, Chandan, Shaurya, and Divyansh, with a shared passion to solve real-world problems at scale and consume content for hours (XD). We started Wishlink in January 2022 when we discovered products on social media that we wanted to buy but could not (in some cases, actually did)! We are based out of Gurugram. We have recently raised a series A round of $7M, led by Fundamentum & Elevation Capital.
Why Join Us?
Exciting Problem
The way people shop online is changing. Users are tired of spending hours browsing humongous catalogues on eCommerce marketplaces just to find a single piece of apparel they like. They need curation, and they need trusted reviews - which is what Wishlink is bringing with the help of content creators. Wishlink is at the forefront of this change, enabling users to shop in an easier and more exciting way.
Immense Scale
In just 2 years of existence, Wishlink is used by over 700k users daily to discover and shop products online. This number has grown over 3x in the last 4 months.
Stellar Team
Wishlink is all about its people. Our business and engineering teams are young and energetic, come from stellar backgrounds, and are dedicated towards a common goal. Also, we have a LOT of fun!
Growth Opportunity
We have grown remarkably in the last 4 months and are doing a monthly GMV of over Rs. 150cr. You will have the opportunity to grow and scale the engineering infrastructure and the organisation to the next level of scale.
