- In particular, statistical learning methods, and the ability to work with large, complex, and uncleansed datasets.
- Have good coding skills in a language suitable for data science, preferably Python.
- Be able to switch between hands-on execution and strategic advice, as needed.
- Be comfortable with deploying data services and infrastructure to production systems.
- Have high emotional intelligence and empathy for our founders and their teams as well as for your fellow colleagues in the 54 Collective operations team.
- Be organised with a strong attention to detail and an ability to balance detail with the big picture.
