We are looking for somebody who can work independently, create working solutions quickly, and creatively come up with new ideas, but also knows how to use and where to look for existing solutions.

• We create data-driven business solutions for our customers. You will be the one creating them and possibly deploying them to production, teaching your customers how to use them, and providing support/maintenance
• You will be responsible for the technical part in your time series projects designing & implementing prototypes of innovative applications in Python
• You will cooperate with the business side including your active contribution in customer workshops, meetings, and calls so the ability to explain technical points to business colleagues is a crucial part of this job, as is a consultant’s mindset
• You will participate in team brainstorming sessions, code reviews, and pair programming sessions
• Depending on the use case, you will have the opportunity to work with a variety of tools and technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes, FastAPI, Redis, Celery, and ML frameworks like SKTime, Scikit-learn, Nixtla, Tensorflow, or other relevant libraries.

• Additionally, you have been advising junior Data Scientists in projects
• You write clean, comprehensive, and efficient Python code and are an expert in developing machine learning solutions in Python. Additionally, you are familiar with OOP principles, PEP8 guidelines, testing methodologies and API integrations. You are aware of and willing to apply Agile methodology (Scrum, Kanban, etc.)
• You have at least basic understanding of SQL that allows you to interact with relational databases and fetch the data from / insert data into them
• You are proactive. You do not wait for others to specify what needs to be done, but you take the initiative to identify bottlenecks and areas for possible improvements and you are able to make those work with minimal supervision
• You are not afraid to ask questions when something is not clear or point out when something seems inefficient to you
• You are an analytical thinker, have an affinity for structure, grasp things fast and work systematically
• You can develop working solutions quickly and you get things done
• Experience with the basics of DevOps and deployment in cloud environments such as GCP is a plus
