Job Summary

We are an engineering organization collaborating directly with clients to address 

challenges using the latest technologies. Our focus is on joint code development with 

clients' engineers for cloud-based solutions, accelerating organizational progress. 

Working with product teams, partners, and open-source communities, we contribute to 

open source, striving for platform improvement. This role involves creating impactful 

solution patterns and open-source assets. As a team member, you'll collaborate with 

engineers from both teams, applying your skills and creativity to solve complex 

challenges and contribute to open source, while fostering professional growth.

Responsibilities

• Researching and developing production-grade models (forecasting, anomaly 

detection, optimization, clustering, etc.) for global cloud business by using 

statistical and machine learning techniques.

• Manage large volumes of data, and create new and improved solutions for data 

collection, management, analyses, and data science model development.

• Drive the onboarding of new data and the refinement of existing data sources 

through feature engineering and feature selection.

• Apply statistical concepts and cutting-edge machine learning techniques to 

analyze cloud demand and optimize data science model code for distributed 

computing platforms and task automation.

• Work closely with other data scientists and data engineers to deploy models that 

drive cloud infrastructure capacity planning.

• Present analytical findings and business insights to project managers, 

stakeholders, and senior leadership and keep abreast of new statistical / 

machine learning techniques and implement them as appropriate to improve 

predictive performance.

• Oversees the analysis of data and leads the team in identifying trends, patterns, 

correlations, and insights to develop new forecasting models and improve 

existing models.

• Leads collaboration among team and leverages data to identify pockets of 

opportunity to apply state-of-the-art algorithms to improve a solution to a 

business problem.

• Consistently leverages knowledge of techniques to optimize analysis using 

algorithms.

• Modifies statistical analysis tools for evaluating Machine Learning models. 

Solves deep and challenging problems for circumstances such as when model 

predictions are not correct, when models do not match the training data or the 

design outcomes when the data is not clean when it is unclear which analyses to 

run, and when the process is ambiguous.

• Provides coaching to team members on business context, interpretation, and the 

implications of findings. Interprets findings and their implications for multiple 

businesses, and champions methodological rigour by calling attention to the 

limitations of knowledge wherever biases in data, methods, and analysis exist.

• Generates and leverages insights that inform future studies and reframe the 

research agenda. Informs both current business decisions by implementing and 

adapting supply-chain strategies through complex business intelligence.

Qualifications

• M.Sc. in Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Applied Economics, Computer 

Science or Engineering, Data Science, Operations Research or similar applied
