Job Description

We are looking for a data professional with strong expertise in Python, statistical modelling, forecasting, and building scalable data pipelines. The ideal candidate can work with large datasets, build predictive models, and create analytical systems that support decision-making and optimisation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and evaluate statistical & machine learning models
  • Develop forecasting models for performance and operational metrics.
  • Design clean, reliable data pipelines and feature engineering workflows.
  • Analyse large datasets to identify patterns, drivers, and insights.
  • Translate ambiguous analytical questions into structured modelling tasks.
  • Document processes and communicate findings clearly.

Core Skills (Required)

  • Strong Python skills (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-Learn)
  • Experience with ML models (XGBoost / LightGBM / CatBoost)
  • Experience with regression, classification, and predictive modelling.
  • Time-series forecasting (Prophet, SARIMA, or similar).

  • Built predictive or forecasting models in a previous role.
  • Worked with large-scale numeric datasets (product, sales, operational, etc.).
  • Developed ML pipelines from raw data to deployment.
  • Created statistical models for KPIs like conversions, transactions, orders, or performance metrics. •Implemented ETL/ELT data processes.

Background

  • 2–5 years in Data Science, ML Engineering, Analytics, or related fields.
  • Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or equivalent

Soft Skills

  • Strong analytical mindset.
