•     Translate ambiguous business problems into structured analytical frameworks with measurable outcomes.

•     Partner with domain experts, product managers, and engineering teams to deliver data-driven solutions.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Education

•     Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Bioinformatics, or a closely related field.

Experience

•     2–4 years of hands-on experience in a data science or machine learning role.
