Your role in the team

  • You take on the subject-matter and technical leadership of complex data science initiatives and work with business units to translate business questions into robust analytical solutions.
  • You develop statistical models and machine learning methods yourself, and support their further development from the initial experiment through to production deployment.
  • You are responsible for the methodological quality of the models. To this end, you design robust experiments and validation procedures, critically evaluate results, and make possibilities and limitations transparent.
  • Together with engineering teams, you design the overall solution comprising models, data processing, and interfaces, and ensure reliable integration into existing processes and systems.
  • You establish shared standards for reproducible analyses, maintainable code, and transparent models. Through reviews, tests, documentation, and monitoring, you ensure quality and stability throughout the entire lifecycle.
  • You evaluate new methods and technologies—from traditional machine learning to generative AI—and implement suitable approaches wherever they deliver measurable value.
  • You provide technical guidance to data scientists, support them through mentoring and knowledge sharing, and clearly communicate methodological decisions to business units, IT, and management.

Our expectations of you

Education

  • You have completed a degree in mathematics, statistics, physics, (business) informatics, or a comparable quantitative field, or have an equivalent professional qualification.

Qualifications

  • You code confidently in Python and SQL and use Git, automated tests, and proven development practices to build reproducible and maintainable data science solutions.
  • You have led complex initiatives from a subject-matter or technical perspective, provide well-founded feedback, and can bring colleagues on board with shared methods, quality standards, and approaches to solving problems.
  • You combine analytical depth with an understanding of business value, communicate concisely and effectively with different audiences, and have excellent German and English skills.

Experience

  • You have several years of experience in data science and have successfully guided sophisticated machine learning solutions from the business problem through to production.
