At the core of Exoticca's brand equity is the commitment to "creating life milestones."

We are a professional, dynamic, multicultural team in rapid international growth, seeking new partners to help us create the best and most forward-thinking travel company of our generation. The Data team is the main driver of data as a strategic asset, ensuring it is essential in key decision-making across the whole organization. We capture vast amounts of data from multiple customer touch points, spanning from consideration and booking, to pre-travel, travel, and post-travel. Combined with our customer-centric and AI-driven approach, we believe that our data-driven culture is the key to deliver unparalleled personalized product & services, that wow our customers and create unforgettable experiences to be remembered for a lifetime.

In order to achieve such ambitious goals, our Data team operates as a cross-functional unit, collaborating closely with departments such as Marketing, Product, Travel, Sales, and Customer Success. This setup allows us to work end-to-end — from raw data ingestion and modeling, to the delivery of impactful insights, predictive models, and AI-powered applications. We strive to uncover the most valuable opportunities our data can offer and turn them into actionable business initiatives, scalable data products, and customer-centric experiences. Whether it's growing sales, enhancing personalization, driving automation, or optimizing processes, we believe in using data and AI not just to understand the business — but to shape its future. If you're passionate about data, AI, and creating real impact, we can't wait to have you on board!
