We are seeking a highly skilled Data Scientist with 10+ years of industry experience to join our team. The successful candidate will have a strong background in data analysis, statistical modeling, and data visualization, as well as excellent communication skills.
The role is broadly focused on analytical problem-solving, metric definition/monitoring, and identifying new opportunities through data. Team leverages data analysis, statistical modeling, and visualization to drive business decisions.
Key Responsibilities:
Data Analysis: Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA) to identify trends, patterns, and correlations; apply statistical and quantitative tools or techniques; interpret data and formulate deep-level insights.
Setting Goals and Success Metrics: Collaborate with stakeholders to define business objectives and key results (OKRs); define success metrics that measure short and long-term progress towards OKRs.
Visualization: Design visualizations that provide a clear narrative understanding as well as deep dive capabilities; develop high-performance reports and dashboards.
Storytelling Through Data: Develop compelling narratives to communicate data insights for technical and non-technical audiences; utilize various relevant tools and techniques to effectively present data; provide recommendations based on analytical findings and insights, with prioritization of actions and estimated impact.
Modeling: Develop and implement predictive and forecasting models using multiple techniques such as regression, clustering, classification, and more; evaluate and refine models based on performance metrics; generate actionable insights from model output.
Research and Experiment: Formulate multiple hypotheses that are tied together to answer business questions; develop a comprehensive research plan that identifies appropriate data collection tools, techniques, or methods to be used for a specific research problem; conduct research with appropriate methods to answer the research questions or test hypotheses.
Requirements:
