Job description

Data Scientist Help Build the Data Behind What’s Next

ArtiFlex is building a proprietary data environment that brings together information from Salesforce, ERP systems, and other internal databases. At the center of this effort is an AI-powered platform designed to make that information more accessible and useful across the business.

We’re looking for a Data Scientist to help build and support this evolving data environment. You’ll work with complex data, develop analytical and predictive solutions, and partner with business and technical teams to turn data into useful information and insights.

What You’ll Do

Design, build, and deploy machine learning algorithms, statistical models, and predictive workflows.

Support the development of forecasting and other data models as the organization's data foundation develops.

Data Observation & Management

Clean, preprocess, and integrate large structured and unstructured datasets from multiple sources.

Help ensure data is accurate, current, and usable across the organization's systems.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Partner with product, production, services, engineering, and other business teams to understand data needs, challenges, and how data is used.

Work with business and technical teams to support the development and integration of data science solutions, while building relationships with business leaders and data owners to identify improvement opportunities.

Business Insights

Translate complex analytical results into clear, actionable recommendations for business and executive stakeholders.

Help make organizational data more accessible and useful through ArtiFlex's proprietary Data Link and AI-enabled tools.

Performance Monitoring

Track, maintain, and optimize live models to support ongoing accuracy and business value.

Monitor data quality and identify opportunities for improvement.

This Role May Be for You If...

You have a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Economics, or a related quantitative field.

You have 3+ years of experience in Data Science, Business Analytics, or a related field.

You have strong database management skills using SQL for querying, aggregating, and analyzing data.

You have experience with Python and a solid foundation in supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques.

You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

You communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical teams.

You are proactive and interested in understanding both the data and the business needs behind it.

Our environment includes technologies such as Python, Databricks, Delta Lake, AWS (Amazon Web Services), Microsoft Azure, Azure ML/AI, Azure Cognitive Services, SAS, R, SQL, DB2, GitHub, and Power BI.

You do not need to be an expert in every technology listed. We’re looking for strong data science fundamentals and the ability to learn and work across a modern data and AI environment.

What Success Looks Like

In your first 6–12 months, success will mean making measurable progress in cleaning and improving our data, developing proactive processes with data owners, and building relationships with business leaders to understand their data needs and challenges.

As the data foundation develops, you’ll have the opportunity to expand into data modeling, forecasting, predictive analytics, and AI-driven solutions.

A Few More Details

Reports to: IT Director

Typical Schedule: Monday–Friday, 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m.

Location: While having a home base, this individual will be expected to meet with leaders across all of ArtiFlex locations in Michigan and Ohio.

  • Citizenship: Due to the nature of the role, candidates must be a US Person.
Why ArtiFlex?

This isn't a role where you'll simply work with existing reports and datasets. You’ll help build the data foundation behind how ArtiFlex uses AI and information to solve real business problems.

ArtiFlex employees are ArtiFlex owners with our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).

We provide a full array of Health and Welfare plans including: Medical, Dental, Vision, Long & Short-Term Disability, Life, Flexible Spending or Health Savings Accounts, 401k with Company Matching, Paid Time Off, Holiday Pay, Annual Bonus, Tuition Reimbursement, Prescription Safety Glasses Reimbursement, Tool Purchase Program, Career Development, Training, Vehicle Purchase Supplier Discount, Company Events, Celebrations, and more!
