- Strong foundational skills in Python and SQL, with exposure to data science and machine learning libraries such as pandas, scikit-learn, TensorFlow or PyTorch.
- An understanding of statistics, mathematical modelling and machine learning concepts, including predictive modelling, clustering, experimentation or Generative AI.
- A curious and analytical mindset with a passion for solving complex problems and learning new technologies.
- Experience through study, internships, research or personal projects involving data analysis, machine learning, AI or software development.
- Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to a range of audiences.
