Our client is an investment platform.
Job Description Turn complexity into clarity.
We believe investing should feel good. Making that possible means continually understanding our customers, our business and the opportunities to improve how we work.
As a Senior Data Scientist, you'll turn complex and often loosely defined business questions into clear, actionable insight. You'll use Python, SQL, statistical methods and appropriate machine-learning techniques to understand what's happening, why it's happening and what could happen next.

Experience working with large or complex datasets and performing data discovery, validation and exploratory analysis.
