Job description

Dataiku is the Platform for AI Success, the enterprise orchestration layer for building, deploying, and governing AI. In a single environment, teams design and operate analytics, machine learning, and AI agents with the transparency, collaboration, and control enterprises require. Sitting above data platforms, cloud infrastructure, and AI services, Dataiku connects the full enterprise AI stack - empowering organizations to run AI across multi-vendor environments with centralized governance.

This includes supporting their discovery of the platform, helping integrate Dataiku with other tools and technologies, providing user training, and co-developing data science projects from design to deployment.

Just as non-technical skills are important, so are technical skills. Our Data Scientists work on the Dataiku platform daily. Aside from the visual tools, our team mostly uses Python, with occasional work in other languages (e.g., R, SQL, PySpark, JavaScript). An ideal candidate is excited to teach customers data science, how to use the Dataiku platform, and learn about new technologies.

• Scope and co-develop production-level data science projects with our customers.
• Mentor and help educate data scientists and other customer team members to aid in career development and growth.

What You'll Need To Be Successful

• German language - native-level proficiency, English language - fluent/native-level proficiency
• Curiosity and a desire to learn new technical skills
• Empathy and an eagerness to share your knowledge with your colleagues, Dataiku’s customers, and the general public
• Ability to clearly explain complex topics to technical as well as non-technical audiences
• Over 5 years of experience with coding (Python, R, SQL)
• Over 5 years of experience building ML models
• Understanding underlying data systems and platform mechanics, such as Cloud architectures, K8S, Spark, and SQL

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Experience with Consulting and/or Customer-facing Data Science roles

• Experience developing WebApps in JavaScript, RShiny, or Dash
• Experience building APIs
• Experience using enterprise data science tools
