About the role

As a Solutions Analyst, you will be a key part of the Solutions and Consulting Team, responsible for designing and deploying custom classifiers across our growing customer base. You will collaborate closely with internal teams and customers and play a key part in all aspects of the delivery process – from pre-sales support through to project delivery.

This supervised learning process is conducted using the proprietary ‘Cipher’ platform - no prior experience with machine learning techniques is required.

• Conducting desk-based research into various technologies and products.
• Working with customers to understand their specific needs and challenges.

• Participating in customer meetings for scoping and data review – with a lead analyst, gaining valuable exposure to client interactions.

This role is ideal for inquisitive individuals with a strong interest in both established and emerging technologies. You can expect a collaborative environment with opportunities to problem-solve and contribute to qualitative and quantitative analysis.

As the role progresses, you will be:

• Working with customers to understand their specific needs and challenges.
• Ad-hoc data analysis and presentation when required to meet a customer goal.
• Leading customer meetings for scoping, data review and data presentation purposes.
