- Expertise of statistical inference and machine learning techniques such as hypothesis testing, regression, classification, clustering, cross-validation – all to understand and model large datasets
- Strong knowledge of data structure (specifically SQL) and REST APIs
- The ability to translate complex business needs into tangible problems that can be solved via data mining, analytics, statistical inference, and predictive modeling
