Full Job Description
Data Scientist **The Opportunity:** We are seeking a Data Scientist to support the development and evolution of analytics and optimization capabilities within a complex data platform that enables decision-making across planning, resource allocation, and operational workflows. This role will primarily focus on building and scaling analytics, optimization models, and data-driven solutions using structured and unstructured data. The role will also contribute to the development and maintenance of a robust data layer, including data pipelines, governance standards, and curated datasets that support enterprise use cases. As a secondary focus, this role will support the development of AI or LLM-enabled capabilities, including retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows, hybrid search, and metadata-driven data access patterns. The ideal candidate is a strong data scientist with experience in analytics, optimization, and data engineering fundamentals, capable of working across the full data lifecycle from ingestion and transformation to modeling and visualization. **What You’ll Work On:** * Design, develop, and maintain analytics and optimization solutions to support operational decision-making. * Build and manage data pipelines and transformation workflows using SQL and Python. * Develop dashboards and reporting solutions using tools such as Tableau, to communicate insights. * Apply statistical analysis, machine learning, and optimization techniques to solve real-world problems. * Design and maintain relational data models such as PostgreSQL, to support analytics and application needs. * Implement scalable data processing workflows leveraging cloud services such as AWS. * Establish and maintain data governance, data quality, and data curation standards across the data layer. * Collaborate with engineering, product, and stakeholders to translate requirements into analytical solutions. * Integrate multiple data sources into a unified and reliable data platform.
