  • You possess a solid grasp of core data science techniques (supervised/unsupervised learning, time-series, NLP, model validation) and the ability to innovate new algorithms.

  • You apply a rigorous scientific and entrepreneurial mindset, translating complex business problems into a mathematical framework and measuring model impact upon deployment.
