What Would You Be Doing

Strategy:Drive problem/opportunity formulation around the methods and scientific approach for significant internal and external applications.

Discovery:Collaborate with key internal stakeholders to identify unique opportunities to discover and exploit data assets using traditional and non-traditional methods of data synthesis, particularly focusing on new methods and intellectual property.

Curation:Derive and apply best practice to analyze the quality and character of data to address key unmet needs, including the design and implementation of scalable empirical research and the creation and refinement of new algorithms and compelling models. Drive structure and discipline around the evaluation and positioning of global data assets that serve unmet needs with complex challenges including diverse ontology, complexity around permissible use, lack of longitudinal data, and emerging disruptive competition.

Synthesis:Design processes to innovate around large, complex and dynamic data sets, including modeling and experiment design. Collaborate globally with key stakeholders and implementation partners on value assessment and use-case evolution. Drive results that matter.

Delivery:Contribute to the development of customer-facing material that communicates complex messages around data science in a consumable and compelling way, including data visualization, modeling, and opportunity cost articulation. Contribute to the ongoing creation of intellectual property that advances the enabling capabilities of the organization, especially related to unstructured data, identity, behavior, and sentiment.
