- Set research priorities directly with leadership and ensure alignment with firm strategy.
- Collaborate with a data engineering partner to ensure new datasets are fast, clean, and reliable.
- Work with technology and business teams to scope requirements and expand the firm's measurement capabilities.
- Introduce automation and forward-looking analysis into the firm's daily operating rhythm.
- Integrate AI and LLM tooling into the workflow for exploratory analysis, code generation, and unstructured data synthesis, and help define responsible usage guidelines.
Requirements
- Strong analytical judgment, including framing ambiguous problems, selecting appropriate methods, validating results, and clearly stating conclusions.
- Master's degree or higher in Data Science, Statistics, Economics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent demonstrated experience.
- 4+ years in data science, analytics, or business intelligence, with independent ownership of end-to-end modeling work.
- Strong Python skills for analysis, statistical modeling, and visualization.
- Proficiency with SQL (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) for data querying and manipulation.
- Hands-on experience applying NLP and LLM-based methods to unstructured text at scale, including evaluating output quality and selecting appropriate approaches.
- Experience building dashboards in tools such as Tableau, Power BI, Streamlit, or Shiny.
- Strong command of metrics design, hypothesis testing, statistical inference, and predictive modeling, with a proven record of turning models into actionable outputs.
- Clear communication skills, with the ability to translate complex analysis into plain business terms for traders and executives.
