Résumé du poste

Capgemini Engineering is seeking an R&D Data Scientist to advance telemetry analysis, unstructured data and driver profiling. You will develop interpretable features, link real-world data with survey responses, and conduct rigorous experiments to drive actionable insights.

The role requires strong Python, statistics, and ML skills, independent work style, and the ability to explain complex results to diverse stakeholders.

Qualifications

• Strong proficiency in Python for analysis, modelling and prototyping.
• Solid foundations in statistics, machine learning and AI.
• Applied research capability and ability to design experiments on complex datasets.
• Engineering sensitivity to ensure results are meaningful and robust.

Responsabilités

• Analyze vehicle telemetry, driving data and unstructured data to build interpretable features and dimensions.
• Link real-world telemetry data with survey responses and driver personas to understand driver profiles.
• Review academic and technical literature and rapidly test approaches via proofs-of-concept on real data.
• Compare and validate analytical methods (clustering, dimensionality reduction, factor analysis, supervised/unsupervised modelling).
• Collaborate with engineers and clearly communicate recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Description du poste

At Capgemini Engineering, the world leader in engineering services, we bring together a global team of engineers, scientists, and architects to help the world’s most innovative companies unleash their potential. From autonomous cars to life-saving robots, our digital and software technology experts think outside the box as they provide unique R&D and engineering services across all industries. Join us for a career full of opportunities. Where you can make a difference. Where no two days are the same.Your RoleAs an R&D Data Scientist, you will play a key role in:Analysing vehicle telemetry, driving data, and unstructured data sources (including verbatim text) to build interpretable features and dimensions that define driving patterns and behaviours.Linking real-world telemetry data with survey responses, customer personas, and behavioural indicators to generate a rich, multi-dimensional understanding of driver profiles.Reviewing relevant academic and technical literature, assessing applicability to the project, and rapidly testing approaches through proof-of-concepts on real, messy data.Comparing and validating analytical methods — including clustering, dimensionality reduction, factor analysis, and supervised/unsupervised modelling — with rigorous attention to robustness, reliability, and limitations.Collaborating with engineers to ensure findings are technically grounded, and communicating results clearly with well-reasoned recommendations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.Your ProfileTechnical depth: Strong proficiency in Python for analysis, modelling and prototyping, combined with solid foundations in statistics, machine learning and AI — including feature engineering, dimensionality reduction and model validation.Applied research capability: Able to read and critically assess technical material, adapt methods to real-world constraints, and design experiments on complex, ambiguous datasets — going well beyond running standard pipelines.Engineering sensitivity: You understand what your data physically and behaviourally represents, and can judge whether results make sense in context — not just statistically, but meaningfully.Communication and autonomy: You work independently, structure your own analyses, challenge weak or ambiguous results, and clearly communicate assumptions, limitations and conclusions to diverse audiences.Fluent in EnglishMinimum 4 years of experienceWhat you will love about working hereEmpowering environment - Autonomy and Goal setting are among the top scores with 8,4+ ratings in our monthly employee feedback Pulse.FlexAbroad - Employees in 20+ countries can work abroad for up to 45 days in a 12-month period.Free access to learning platforms - Free access for all to world-class learning assets and curated programs from Harvard Business Review, Coursera, Pluralsight, Udemy, Microsoft, AWS, Google and many more.Worldwide Leader of Engineering Services - Capgemini Engineering combines its broad industry knowledge and cutting-edge technologies in digital and software to support the convergence of the physical and digital worlds.
