What you will do
As a data scientist in the Decision Science group, you will improve decision-making in all aspects of Tetra Pak's business. We develop prescriptive analytics for decision makers both within the business and among our customers. This is done by applying scientific methods to real life decision problems. We use data, statistical methods, machine learning and other cutting-edge technology to reduce noise, bias and, other sources of uncertainty and errors in decision-making.
