• Translate emerging concepts and business needs into testable solutions through experimentation, rapid prototyping, validation, and iterative development.
• Apply machine learning, natural language processing, statistical modeling, and predictive analytics techniques to structured and unstructured data.
• Evaluate technical and business feasibility, analyze results, and refine models and methods through successive development cycles and continuous feedback.
• Apply expertise across data discovery, structuring, cleaning, enrichment, statistical design, modeling, validation, deployment, and insight delivery.
• Make autonomous analytical decisions related to exploratory analysis, model development, methodology selection, visualization, and deployment based on project objectives.
• Analyze complex datasets and communicate exploratory and predictive findings through clear insights and visualizations for technical and non-technical audiences.
• Develop and revise technical code, apply data science best practices, and provide guidance to other data scientists on analytical approaches and solution development.
• Partner with product, engineering, and platform teams to advance promising capabilities from research and prototyping through pilots, production readiness, and ongoing enhancement.
• Evaluate emerging data science methods, tools, and technologies to identify opportunities to improve analytical capabilities and client solutions.

Qualifications:

• Relevant degree preferred.
• 5 or more years of relevant experience required.
• Experience with statistical modeling, predictive analytics, machine learning, natural language processing, generative AI, and advanced data science methodologies.
• Experience with experimentation, prototyping, model evaluation, validation, and iterative solution development.
• Experience with end-to-end data science workflows, including data preparation, feature engineering, model development, validation, deployment, and visualization.
• Proficiency in programming and analytical tools such as Python, R, SQL, SAS, MATLAB, Java, or similar technologies.
• Experience working with complex datasets, including data discovery, preparation, enrichment, validation, normalization, and integration of disparate data sources.
• Experience with analytics, cloud-based, or distributed data platforms such as Databricks, Apache Spark, Hadoop, Tableau, or similar technologies.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity and evolving requirements while translating emerging concepts into practical, testable solutions.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to assess feasibility, make autonomous project-level decisions, and refine approaches based on evidence and feedback.
