Specialist II - Data Science

As a Data Scientist at UST, you will independently develop data-driven solutions to tackle complex business challenges by utilizing analytical, statistical, and programming skills to collect, analyze, and interpret large datasets under supervision. Your role involves working closely with stakeholders across the organization to identify opportunities for leveraging customer data in creating models that generate valuable business insights. You will be responsible for creating new experimental frameworks, building automated tools for data collection, correlating similar datasets, and deriving actionable results. Additionally, you will develop predictive models and machine learning algorithms to analyze vast amounts of information, uncover trends, and patterns. By mining and analyzing data from company databases, you will drive optimization and improvement in product development, marketing techniques, and business strategies. Moreover, you will be expected to create processes and tools to monitor and analyze model performance, data accuracy, and develop data visualization and illustrations to address business problems effectively. Your role will also involve using predictive modeling to enhance and optimize customer experiences and other business outcomes. Collaboration with different functional teams to implement models and monitor outcomes is essential. You will be required to set and provide feedback on FAST goals for reportees. Key responsibilities include applying statistical techniques like regression, properties of distributions, and statistical tests to analyze data, as well as utilizing machine learning techniques such as clustering, decision tree learning, and artificial neural networks for data analysis. Moreover, you will be creating advanced algorithms and statistics through regression, simulation, scenario analysis, and modeling. In terms of data visualization, you will visualize and present data for stakeholders using tools like Periscope, Business Objects, D3, ggplot, etc. You will oversee the activities of analyst personnel, ensuring efficient execution of their duties, while mining the business's database for critical insights and communicating findings to relevant departments. Other expectations include creating efficient and reusable code for data improvement, manipulation, and analysis, managing project codebase through version control tools like git and bitbucket, and creating reports depicting trends and behaviors from analyzed data. You will also be involved in training end users on new reports and dashboards, documenting your work, conducting peer reviews, managing knowledge, and reporting task status. The ideal candidate will possess excellent pattern recognition and predictive modeling skills, a strong background in data mining and statistical analysis, expertise in machine learning techniques, and advanced algorithm creation. Moreover, analytical, communication, critical thinking, attention to detail, mathematical, and interpersonal skills are crucial for success in this role. Proficiency in programming languages such as Java, Python, R, web services like Redshift and S3, statistical and data mining techniques, computing tools, analytical languages, data visualization software, mathematics, spreadsheet tools, DBMS, operating systems, and project management tools is required. Additionally, a strong understanding of statistical concepts, SQL, machine learning (Regression and Classification), deep learning (ANN, RNN, CNN), advanced NLP, computer vision, Gen AI/LLM, AWS Sagemaker/Azure ML/Google Vertex AI, and basic implementation experience of Docker, Kubernetes, kubeflow, MLOps, Python (numpy, panda, sklearn, streamlit, matplotlib, seaborn) is essential for this role.,
