Senior Data Scientist - Latin America - Entellux

Deskripsi

Be a pioneer in business, education, and global impact by joining the team - a "startup with assets," where you will have the chance to deploy cutting-edge digital- and emerging-technology education solutions. Where else can you make a difference at the intersection of cutting-edge technology, world-class education, noble purpose, and timeless legacy? As a Senior Data Scientist, you will collaborate with the Data Science and Machine Learning team and will create data science, machine learning, and AI solutions to better address the needs of our constituents (students, alumni, faculty, researchers, staff, and community at large). You will have the chance to guide and continuously improve the ways in which we engage, educate, and empower people around the world, combining the best of human touch and technology scale. You will experiment with everything from the latest AI algorithms and techniques to blended and immersive environments, multi-modal and varied-form content, and the most innovative research and teaching methodologies. In this capacity, you will translate the needs of our cross-functional stakeholders into predictive models and production-grade algorithms and platforms and will drive value creation through personalized engagement, expanded reach, and experimental new ways of learning that will continue the organization's leadership in education, business, and societal impact. You will contribute to the creation, delivery, and production of specific data science, machine learning and AI products for internal stakeholders; directly mentor other data professionals, data analysts, and machine learning engineers. In conjunction with the key partners, you will make technical decisions on data, technology, and ways of working.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Develop analytical models and solutions / production-ready algorithms that solve real business problems, taking into account business needs and technology/operations landscape; lead interaction with internal stakeholders and technology on specific projects and initiatives.
• Apply data science, machine learning, and AI techniques to derive business value from the full range of internal and external data sets in a cloud environment.
• Build data science pipelines from feature generation, data visualization and models evaluation; design the solution, build initial code and provide documentation with ways of working to maximize time to value and re-usability.
• Translate complex data and methodology into strategic, operationally feasible insights and recommendations; automate implementation.
• Communicate clearly and effectively to technical and non-technical audiences, verbally and visually, to create understanding, engagement, and buy-in.
• Identify trends and opportunities to drive innovation, both in what we do and how we do it; evaluate new data science, machine learning, and AI technologies and tools that can boost team performance, innovation and business value.
• Embody the values and passions that characterize the organization, with empathy to engage with colleagues from a wide range of backgrounds.
• Promote data science, machine learning, AI, and digital and emerging technologies in relevant channels through community engagement, networking, speeches, and publications as applicable.
• Complete other responsibilities as assigned.
