• Expert knowledge of advanced statistical methods (e.g., regression, cluster analysis, HLM, social network analysis, text analysis, forecasting/predictive models, ML, etc.)

• Advanced in data querying, hypothesis testing and analysis using tools such as SQL, Python, and R

• Strong understanding of data infrastructure needs for People Analytics, and ability to collaborate across functions to solidify data foundations

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex data insights to non-technical stakeholders.

• Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively across functions and levels within an organization.

• Proven ability to mentor junior data scientists and teach others how to use data science tools and best practices.
