Reporting to the Head of Data, you will collaborate closely with a Senior Data Scientist to deliver upon our roadmap. You will have support from Analytics Engineering teams to build and maintain pipelines and from Software Engineering teams to productionize models. The ideal candidate will relish the opportunity to understand their stakeholders more deeply and define where they think they (and Data Science) can add the most value. With support, they will be excited to build data science models from inception to production.

Responsibilities: Build and manage a Machine Learning Platform by selecting and integrating tools that complement the existing data ecosystem (AWS, Snowflake)
