• Strong knowledge and interest in artificial intelligence, machine learning, predictive modelling, data analytics, data visualization and data interpretation.
• The ability to extract and communicate data insights is essential.
• The ability to think creatively and solve new problems with limited resources is critical for success.
• Strong communication skills and the confidence and ability to present effectively across different levels of seniority.
