  • Develop, maintain, and deploy analytical and predictive models in Python for classification, pattern analysis, anomaly detection, and risk scoring
  • Build and optimize intelligent automation features that enhance compliance workflows and decision support
  • Create and maintain embedded analytics and data visualizations using React (Chart.js, Recharts) and geospatial mapping (Leaflet, H3 hexagonal grids) for both internal and client-facing dashboards
  • Write and optimize complex SQL queries and data transformations across Azure SQL (Entity Framework Core), Cosmos DB, and PostgreSQL with PostGIS extensions
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into technical specifications and data-driven solutions
  • Conduct A/B testing, statistical analysis, and hypothesis-driven experimentation to inform product decisions and measure feature impact
  • Manage and automate data workflows across Azure Functions (.NET and Python), ensuring reliability, scalability, and observability
  • Contribute to the evaluation and integration of emerging technologies, including vendor assessments and proof-of-concept development
  • Maintain documentation, data schemas, and engineering best practices across the data platform

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field
  • 4+ years of professional experience in data engineering, data analytics, or applied analytics roles
  • Strong proficiency in Python and SQL with hands-on experience building production-grade data pipelines and analytical models
  • Experience with Azure cloud services (Azure Functions, Azure SQL, Cosmos DB, Azure Service Bus, Azure Blob Storage, or equivalent)
  • Working knowledge of analytical modeling techniques including classification, clustering, time-series anomaly detection, and ensemble methods
  • Experience with geospatial data processing (PostGIS, coordinate systems, spatial indexing, or equivalent)
  • Proficiency in data visualization and embedded analytics (Chart.js, Recharts, D3.js, or equivalent charting libraries)
  • Solid foundation in statistics: hypothesis testing, regression, A/B testing, and confidence intervals
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate technical work into business impact for diverse stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master’s degree in Engineering, Data Science, Computer Science, or related field
  • 5+ Year of experience
  • Experience building intelligent automation or decision-support tools
  • Experience with Redis or similar for distributed caching and real-time data patterns

  • Experience with geospatial visualization (Leaflet, Mapbox, H3 hexagonal indexing)
  • Familiarity with compliance, insurance, immigration, or regulated industry data environments

What We Offer
