Demand for Data Scientist roles
New Data Scientist postings at the employers we follow are down 4% over the last 6 weeks compared with the 6 before.

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.

What we offer?
We are looking for an autonomous (Senior) Data Science Consultant to join 7Learnings as our first hire in Malaysia. In this role, you will be the primary technical and client-facing counterpart for our client in Sydney (Australia), operating remotely from Malaysia while collaborating closely with our engineering and data science headquarters in Berlin.
This is not a traditional back-office data science role. You will bridge the gap between advanced predictive modeling, software engineering, and strategic client advisory. You will actively interact with senior retail stakeholders in Sydney on a regular basis—uncovering their business challenges, translating complex retail mechanics into mathematical models, and ensuring our AI-driven pricing and forecasting engine drives measurable business value.
As our dedicated data science resource in Sydney, you are the engine of 7Learnings’ regional presence. Our product relies on the perfect harmony between complex algorithms and stable software; you will be responsible for ensuring that our technical execution remains flawless, technical debt remains low, and model accuracy remains exceptionally high.
Your mission
Client Management & Advisory
Lead client syncs: Run recurring technical and strategic meetings with our Sydney retail clients as their trusted advisor.
Translate business needs: Turn commercial retail challenges (pricing, inventory, promotions) into concrete analytical solutions.
Communicate value: Present complex data science insights and business impact clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
Advanced Data Science & Modeling
Predictive modeling: Build and refine ML models forecasting demand, sales volume, elasticity, and costs.
Code & pipeline quality: Develop robust, production-ready Python pipelines and algorithms with minimal technical debt.
Accuracy & monitoring: Track model performance and data stability across large-scale retail datasets.
Technical Project Management & Delivery
End-to-end ownership: Deliver client milestones from initial scoping to production rollout.
Founding footprint: Establish operational standards and documentation as our first team member in Malaysia.
Your profile

Strong project management skills, with prior experience or a strong interest in e-commerce and the fashion industry.
Exceptional communication and stakeholder management abilities, with a proven track record of explaining technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
