It also includes building algorithms and designing experiments to merge, manage, interrogate, and extract data to supply tailored reports to colleagues, customers or the wider organization.

You will need a collaborative delivery approach to be successful. We prefer to use Agile, and our unit applies a pragmatic approach to SAFe to resolve dependencies and set the pace for development, but we choose the appropriate approach for the product and team. As a data scientist, you will not only write code but also collaborate with solution and enterprise architects, scrum manager and product owner, and line managers to design and define the competencies, processes and technology needed to meet business requirements and architectural strategy. We work towards a vision of MLops and you will be able to have a major *impact on how we get from ad hoc reports and BI to the next level of analytics capabilities!

You have excellent analytical skills and a firm understanding of data analyses, patterns and continuous improvement. A motivator for you is to work with data and as well as tactical issues on the boundaries between data analyses and operations. As a person you are analytical, structured and communicative, driven by challenges and complex deliveries and you are a very good team player. We are a global company so you also have very good skills in English language both in speech and in writing.

As a person you are curious to learn and evolve and adapt your skills and tools in accordance with needs of the domain and context that you work in. You are also humble for the fact that creating and maintaining great solutions at scale is a team effort and not an initiative of a few superheroes. The uncertainties and varying responsibilities that follow by joining an organisation that is in parallel delivering and growing, defining its mission, vision, methods and architecture, you embrace as a stimulating challenge, and you enjoy the journey and not only the destination.

We are happy to see that you want to develop in the long term in our team where we can give you good development opportunities and a chance to influence PostNord`s IT future!
