  • Collaborate with product and business teams to align on goals and KPIs.

  • Passion for innovation and curiosity to explore unfamiliar technologies.
  • A true team player with strong collaboration skills.
  • Excellent communication and client-facing abilities.
  • Ability to quickly learn and adapt to new tools, methods, and frameworks.

Advantage:

  • PhD in Computer Science with a focus on AI or Data Science.
  • Native-level English or strong command of written and spoken English.
