Are you passionate about data? Would you like the opportunity to work for an international organisation driving the Data Science area? If so Tek Experts are currently recruiting for a Data Scientist to analyse our data and provide predictive insights both internally and to our clients.

What we’re looking for

Dynamic, passionate and proven people who want to make a positive difference with the people they work with and customers we support. You will have the ability to thrive in a fast-paced and challenging environment where everyone is empowered and committed to deliver the best in industry customer experience.

Duties and responsibilities

  • Perform hands-on data analysis and modelling with huge data sets.
  • Apply data mining, NLP, and machine learning to understand correlations and hence improve the performance of the business operations.
  • Discover data sources, get access to them, import them, clean them up, and make them “machine learning ready”.
  • Create and refine features from the underlying data. You’ll enjoy and have intuition about what features might make your model perform better, and then you’ll lather, rinse and repeat.
  • Run regular A/B tests, gather data, perform statistical analysis, draw conclusions on the impact of your models and communicate results to peers and leaders.
  • Explore new design or technology shifts in order to determine how they might connect with the customer benefits we wish to deliver.

Skills and competencies

  • MS, or PhD in an appropriate field (Computer Science, Statistics, Physics, Applied Math, Operations Research, etc.).
  • Extensive background in data science.
  • Expertise in modern advanced analytical tools and programming languages such as Python, Scala, Java and/or R, SQL, Hive, Spark, Hadoop etc.
  • Expertise in data mining algorithms and statistical modelling techniques such as clustering, classification, regression, decision trees, neural nets, support vector machines, anomaly detection, sequential pattern discovery, and text mining.
  • Solid communication skills — demonstrated ability to explain complex technical issues to both technical and non-technical audiences

In return, we offer you

  • An excellent remuneration package
  • Prestigious offices all around the world
  • Friendly working atmosphere
  • Continuous professional development and certification programs
  • A commitment to offer you career development opportunities to meet your full potential
