Stellenbosch: Data Scientist

Location
Cape Winelands

Job Type
IT / Computing / Software

Job Description

A Bachelors degree (in something terrifying like Stats, Data Science, Maths, Economics, or “a related field” And no ‘years of experience Googling solutions’ does not counts!) Minimum 5 years in a Fintech data science role (read: you’ve survived start-up chaos, regulatory hoops, and possibly a coworker named Brett who insists on using the word ‘synergy’ unironically) Fluency in Python, SQL, and machine learning things (scikit-learn, XGBoost, LightGBM basically alphabet soup of data wizardry) Solid grasp of credit risk modeling, scorecards, and being able to explain it without everyone falling asleep Communication skills strong enough to survive meetings where everyones mic is off and no one responds Experience with “alternative data sources” (translation: you once used TikTok data to predict consumer behaviour, and it worked emphasis on ONCE) Bonus if youve worked in BNPL, fintech lending, or fraud analytics (basically: anything that sounds like a subplot in a Netflix thriller) Oh, and if you know your way around Google Cloud chefs kiss Feeling personally attacked by how well this job knows what it wants? Then, by all means, put on your best blazer, channel your inner tech goddess, and apply immediately before someone younger, with more ironic tote bags and a degree in Machine Learning from somewhere Scandinavian, gets there first.
