• Thorough and systematic

• Enthusiasm about quantum computing and data science

• Able to ruthlessly prioritize based on business needs/impact

• 3+ years of experience in data science, analytics, or analytics engineering roles, with a focus on deriving insights from complex datasets.

• Demonstrated proficiency in SQL (e.g. PostgreSQL, Presto/Trino) for data analysis, transformation, and metric development.

• Hands‑on experience with Python for data analysis and statistical modeling (e.g. pandas, NumPy, SciPy).

• Proven experience designing and implementing analytical data models (e.g. dimensional models, semantic layers, curated datasets).

• Experience developing and maintaining production‑grade analytical pipelines and workflows (e.g. using Airflow or similar orchestration tools).

• Strong experience with data visualization and BI tools (e.g. Superset, Cognos Analytics, Tableau), including building dashboards for business and technical stakeholders.

• Demonstrated ability to define, standardize, and operationalize business and operational metrics across teams.

• Familiarity with analytics engineering best practices, including data testing, documentation, version control (Git), and modular development.

• Experience applying statistical methods such as hypothesis testing, trend analysis, and exploratory data analysis (EDA) to inform decision‑making.

• Experience working with heterogeneous datasets.

• Strong problem‑solving and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex data findings into actionable insights for cross‑functional stakeholders.

• Familiarity with Lakehouse architectures and platforms such as IBM watsonx.data.

• Exposure to machine learning workflows, including feature engineering, model evaluation, and deployment considerations.

• Understanding of data governance, including metric definitions, lineage, data contracts, and access controls.

• Experience in cloud or distributed data environments (e.g. hybrid cloud, containerized systems).

• Familiarity with streaming data concepts and real‑time analytics (e.g. Kafka, event‑driven architectures).

• Interest in or exposure to quantum computing, advanced hardware systems, or cutting‑edge technology domains.
