Data Scientist

What You'll Do:

• Own end-to-end delivery of significant data science projects from problem scoping and approach design through to production deployment

• Make sound, independently-reasoned decisions on methodology, model selection, and evaluation; document them clearly in technical solution documents covering problem statement, approach, metrics, and timeline

• Lead solution design for your own initiatives; break down complex epics into well-scoped user stories with clear acceptance criteria, adopting DataOps and MLOps best practices throughout — experiment tracking, pipeline orchestration, model monitoring, and reproducibility

• Implement advanced ML and AI-powered workflows including entity resolution, probabilistic record linkage, embedding-based matching, semantic similarity, and LLM-augmented pipelines

• Develop and maintain reusable tools, libraries, and documentation that improve team efficiency and technical standards; conduct code reviews with constructive, specific feedback that raises the bar

• Be a team player and collaborate with different teams.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and operations — translate business requirements into technical specifications, partner with data engineering on scalable pipeline design, and participate in cross-functional design reviews and working groups

Who You Are:

• Bachelor's degree required in Statistics, Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics or a related quantitative field; Master's strongly preferred

• 2+ years of hands-on data science experience with demonstrated ability to own and deliver complex, multi-sprint projects independently

• Advanced Python (or any other programming language+Claude/Codex/any other) with production-quality code, testing, and documentation; strong SQL and PySpark for billion-row datasets

• Databricks (nice to have/learn for 2027) workflows, Delta Lake, and job orchestration; working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS or GCP)

• Solid command of core ML — regression, classification, clustering, model evaluation, and experimental design — applied to complex, high-volume data (2 questions to level)

• Proficiency with MLOps practices: experiment tracking and reproducible model deployment

• Exposure to modern AI methodologies: RAG systems, LLM-augmented models, vector databases, and semantic search (showcase+examples)

• Strong communicator — able to translate technical work into clear documentation, user stories, and cross-functional conversations

• Demonstrated ability to mentor junior data scientists and contribute to team standards

• Team player
