Own projects from the research stage through productizing to on-call support
Write clean code in Python - we have nothing against R but this is not a pirate ship
Collaborate with SMEs to translate business needs into product requirements
Keep up with the latest advances in data science and machine learning

What You Need For This Position

Advanced scientific degree (Master's or PhD)
Hands-on as in you have labeled data and written estimators by hand
You own copies of ESLII and ML Design Patterns and have read at least one of them
Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to communicate complex concepts clearly
Proven track record of delivering business value instead of tinkering with hyperparameters
Enough time spent with Pandas that you know when to use NumPy instead
Usage of typical dev tools like bash, git, Docker, debuggers, and profilers

Bonus Skills:

Knowledge of the energy sector and its unique data challenges
Background with GIS, geospatial data formats, and spatial statistics
Facility with time series data, forecasting problems, and a strong aversion to time travel
