Senior Data Scientist - Circularity Strategy

We’re here to help make tech reliable, affordable, and better than new. Back Market is the leading  global marketplace for refurbished devices, which help the planet by lowering  our collective environmental impact — to the tune of up to 92% less carbon emissions and 89% less water than brand new.
