  • Specify and apply appropriate mathematical, statistical, predictive modelling or machine-learning techniques to analyze data, generate insights, create value and support decision-making.
  • Design, code, verify, test, document, amend and refactor complex programs/scripts and engage in mutual code reviews.
  • Seek to fully address client needs, enhancing the capabilities and effectiveness of client personnel, by ensuring our data science solutions are properly understood and appropriately exploited.

  • Actively contribute to our Communities of Practice and knowledge sharing events and thereby shape our analytics policies, standards and guidelines.

Your powerful skills

  • Good communication skills and good stakeholder management experiences

  • Python and its state-of-the art analytical libraries (e.g., pandas, scikit-learn, PySpark, plotly) are your second nature. Hands-on experience in Deep Learning (TensorFlow, PyTorch) is not a must but would be a plus. Solid knowledge of R (including tidyverse) is an advantage.

  • Solid understanding of relational databases and the ability to efficiently query large databases (e.g., via SQL, Hue, Spark).
  • You know what it takes to factorize data science solutions as you stick to basic software engineering principles (e.g., integration/ unit testing) and are familiar with the concept of continuous integration and the use of Jenkins.
  • You have a proven track record in building (demand) forecasting models or one of our other focus areas (i.e., recommender and ranking systems, website personalization, search engine optimization, image processing, social media listening, customer lifetime value).
  • You know the principles of agile development and have already worked as a member of an agile development team.

Your technical skills

  • Proficiency in data science methods (including supervised techniques, unsupervised techniques, recommender systems)
  • Experience in developing and running simulation, optimization, and what-if scenario planning tools to support decision making
  • Proficiency in at least two of the standard data science programming languages (e.g., Python, R, Java, Scala, Octave)
  • Solid understanding of relational databases and NoSQL databases. Experience working with Databricks preferred
  • Solid understanding of Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) required to scale and sustain use cases in a large and global corporation
  • Demonstrated understanding of the principles of experiment design & analysis

Your language skills

  • Advanced level English in speaking, reading and writing
  • Good to have a good level of German

Advantageous, but not a must

  • Working knowledge using Azure Data Bricks
  • Master’s degree in Computer Science/Statistics/Econometrics, or related field with a strong quantitative focus (Mathematics/Physics)

Benefits you can rely on

Reliably powering the future calls for excellent employment conditions. For example, working in one of the most interesting business contexts – a mixture of Retail, Telco, Automotive, trading and of course IT. You will evolve your skills together with us.
