Applications Data Scientist (25792)

An Applications Data Scientist is being recruited by this mathematical software company. They will join a growing technical and consulting team that develop software tools for real-time modelling based on physical data. The role requires experience in software development / implementation, consultancy and data analytics. In this role, the Data Scientist will provide key insight into how data science tools and technologies can be harnessed and best used to work alongside the company's technical products and services.

Whilst a key attractant is the technical challenges you could be working on, the company look to support ambitious careers and personal growth. They also provide an excellent remuneration package as well as relocation expenses for qualifying candidates.

Interested? Here’s what you should have:

• Demonstrable project experience of Machine Learning and computational statistics combined with strong coding proficiency (including open source libraries). Programming experience with C++ or C# would be ideal.
• Demonstrable industry experience with typical Data Science languages (Python, R) with commercial project experience manipulating large datasets. Any exposure to business intelligence visualisation tools (such as Tableau) or data frameworks (such as Hadoop) would be advantageous.
• Excellent communication skills (you’ll not only work on complex data, you’ll also present and talk about projects to both technical and non-technical audiences).

It is expected that interested candidates will be degree qualified (Computer Science, Maths or Physics), and possible hold advanced degrees.

Remote interviews can be held straight away. Joining candidates are expected to be able to work at their Edinburgh offices (under COVID-19 secure conditions).
