How do they match: Data Scientists

  • Data Architect
  • Data Modeler

  • Develop and implement a set of techniques or analytics applications to transform raw data into meaningful information using data-oriented programming languages and visualization software. Apply data mining, data modeling, natural language processing, and machine learning to extract and analyze information from large structured and unstructured datasets. Visualize, interpret, and report data findings. May create dynamic data reports.

  • Apply feature selection algorithms to models predicting outcomes of interest, such as sales, attrition, and healthcare use.
  • Compare models using statistical performance metrics, such as loss functions or proportion of explained variance.
  • Deliver oral or written presentations of the results of mathematical modeling and data analysis to management or other end users.
  • Test, validate, and reformulate models to ensure accurate prediction of outcomes of interest.

  • Develop scientific or mathematical models.
