  1. At least 6 years of professional experience in data science and/or software development.
  2. Demonstrated ability to drive technical decision-making and set the technical direction for projects.

  4. Strong ability for analytical and mathematical thinking.
  5. Track record in writing production-quality software, especially in Python and Typescript.
  6. Ability to work both autonomously and as part of a team.
  7. Ability to see the big picture and prioritize work accordingly.
  8. Ability to communicate clearly both verbally and in writing.
  9. Solid track record of internal passion for excellence: you have gotten things done clearly better than what was required/expected from you, as you enjoy doing things well.
ADDITIONALLY, WE VALUE THE FOLLOWING QUALIFICATIONS:
  1. Extensive practical experience in predictive modeling, Bayesian inference and/or convex optimization.
  2. Experience in LLM-assisted data processing.
  3. Experience in ETL pipelines.
  4. Expertise in using cloud technologies such as AWS Sagemaker, Glue, ECR, and Fargate or similar services in Google Cloud or MS Azure.
WHAT WE OFFER:
  1. A chance to join a quickly growing and highly ambitious impact SaaS company with a mission that matters.
  2. A fun and kind team with exceptional people who care about what they do.
  3. Exciting professional growth opportunities.
  4. Competitive compensation, including stock options and a comprehensive healthcare package.

Location: Helsinki, Finland.
