To succeed in this role

We think that you:

•    Have experience leading teams in data science and data engineering, with a proven ability to manage complex assignments from concept to execution.
•    Are familiar with the processes required to put machine learning models and data pipelines into production, and together with senior staff be able to guide the team in overcoming the associated challenges.
•    Have a demonstrated ability to craft and communicate vision and strategy, and help the organization through adoption. 
•    Communicate and collaborate effectively with cross-functional audiences and look beyond initial feedback to truly understand the stakeholder's needs.
•    Hold a bachelor’s or master’s degree in a relevant field such as Computer Science, Data Science, or Mathematics/Statistics.
