Work on both greenfield and existing projects, bringing fresh ideas to improve our predictive and prescriptive analytics.
Partner with cross-functional teams to translate business problems into data science solutions.

Understanding of statistical modeling and experimentation techniques; exposure to deep learning and generative AI is a plus.
Experience working with AWS (or Azure/GCP) and an interest in learning MLOps practices.
Strong communication skills - you can explain complex ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Comfortable working in smaller, collaborative teams where you’ll have a direct impact.
