DataAnalyst-Pitstops

Relay is fundamentally reshaping how goods move in an online era. Backed by Europe’s largest-ever logistics Series A ($35M), led by deep-tech investors Plural (whose portfolio spans fusion energy and space exploration), Relay is scaling faster than 99.98% of venture-backed startups. We're assembling the most talent-dense team the logistics industry has ever seen Relay’s Mission is to free commerce from friction. Today, high delivery costs act as a hidden tax on e-commerce, quietly shaping what can be sold online and limiting who can participate. We envision a world where more goods move more freely between more people, making the online shopping experience seamless and accessible to everyone. THE TEAM • ~110 people, more than half in engineering, product and data • 45+ advanced degrees across computer science, mathematics and operations research • Thousands of data points captured, calculated, analysed and predicted for every single parcel we handle • An intellectually vibrant culture of first‑principles thinking, tight feedback loops and relentless experimentation Overview Relay's Pitstop network is the convenience-store backbone of the operation. Customers drop off and collect parcels at these locations, Middle Mile drivers hand off and pick up, and the whole network depends on independent retailers behaving in ways that make Relay work. They aren't Relay staff. We don't control their attention, their turnover, or what else is happening behind their counter. Every behaviour we need has to be produced through systems, incentives, and the app. The Pitstop squad's job is to build those systems. Today the network runs at around 170k parcels a day, propped up by a small operations team and twelve LiveOps FTE absorbing the day-to-day breakage. The squad's mission is to take the network from 170k to 2M parcels a day without LiveOps scaling linearly with it. That means systematising launch readiness, pitstop performance, pricing structure, and retention so the same number
