* Data Scientist will design various AB tests, multivariate tests and works with organizations stakeholders to identify opportunities for leveraging data
* Produces innovative solutions driven by exploratory data analysis from large high dimensional datasets
* Expertise in analytics algorithm such as Apriori, Decision Trees algorithm, Naive Bayes algorithm, clustering algorithm, Neural Network algorithm, Linear Regression algorithm, Random Forest
* Applies strong knowledge of statistics, machine learning, Data modelling and simulations to recognize patterns
* Identifies opportunities, pose business questions and make valuable discoveries leading to new product development, enhancements and prototype development
* As a Data Scientist, you will develop increasing complex models & monitors performance of developed models and makes recommendations to increase accuracy
* Documents implementation details and choice of models, rationale and reasoning
* Acts as a mentor to lesser tenured colleagues
REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree
* 2+ years of experience as a Data Scientist
* Strong expertise in statistical computation and numerical packages in tools (R, Spark, Mahout, RapidMiner, Alteryx, Knime, and Python)
* Significant experience with analyzing data from different sources and visualizing tools such as KNIME, Spotfire, Tableau, etc.
* Significant experience and familiarity in Big Data Technologies i.e. Apache Hadoop, Map Reduce, Hive, PIG, Sqoop, Flume, etc.
* Excellent understanding of theory of statistics and their application
The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs.
