About the role
We file this job under Data Scientist, by the work the posting describes.
Data scientists use statistics and models to answer harder questions, such as whether a change worked, what demand will look like next quarter, or which customers are likely to leave.
Postings usually ask for Python or R, SQL, statistics, experiment design and common machine learning methods.
Unlike an ML engineer, a data scientist's main output is often an analysis or a first model, not software running inside a product.

- Configure and integrate models and model outputs into user-facing applications and workflows.
- Develop and integrate Custom Widgets when native application components do not fully satisfy user or mission requirements.
- Rapidly develop proofs of concept (POCs), minimum viable products (MVPs), and prototypes to validate requirements and demonstrate potential solutions.
- Conduct iterative development sessions with users, gathering feedback and quickly incorporating changes into application designs.
- Translate ambiguous or evolving stakeholder requirements into clearly defined technical solutions.
- Work with data engineers and platform teams to connect application functionality with underlying datasets, pipelines, Ontology Objects, models, APIs, and services.
- Troubleshoot application, Ontology, data, and integration issues across environments like Palantir, Databricks, etc.
- Participate in solution demonstrations, design sessions, technical reviews, and user acceptance testing. • Document solution architecture, application configurations, Ontology designs, requirements, workflows, and technical decisions.
- Support deployment and transition of successful prototypes into operational or production environments.
