Data Scientist assigned to your roadmap.
A Data Scientist answers business questions with data and says clearly how confident the answer is, which is the part that separates analysis from decoration.
Assigned under one service agreement with a minimum monthly capacity in hours, run by a service delivery manager in Chiang Mai, Thailand — five hours ahead of Northern Europe.
This role is delivered as part of our data science services. Take the role on its own, or the whole discipline as one delivery team.
What a Data Scientist does on a data science team.
Skills and scope are agreed before delivery starts, so the first sprint is productive rather than a ramp-up month. The work runs to the same backlog, the same repositories and the same definition of done as your own team's.
Data Scientist skills and technology we assign for
-
Statistical analysis and hypothesis testing against real business questions.
-
Designing and reading experiments, including the ones that should be stopped early.
-
Predictive modelling where it genuinely beats a simpler rule, and saying so when it does not.
-
Building the measurement plan before a feature ships, so its impact can actually be assessed afterwards.
-
Challenging metric definitions where two teams are measuring the same thing differently.
Seniority levels we assign.
Mid to senior. Stating uncertainty honestly is a senior skill and it matters here. Seniority is one of the inputs behind the committed monthly capacity written into your agreement.
When a Data Scientist is the right assignment.
Most valuable where the data already exists and decisions are being made on instinct. On an ongoing roadmap this role is most often assigned alongside a Data Analyst or a BI Developer. All 4 roles in this service line can sit on the same agreement, and capacity moves between them at the monthly cycle rather than requiring a new contract. The work is delivered as part of data science at Azendo.
Questions about assigning a Data Scientist.
Will we get a model or an answer?
Whichever the question needs. Plenty of business questions are answered with analysis, and we will not build a model to justify the assignment.
Can you work with our existing analytics team?
Yes. Assigned capacity alongside an internal team is a common arrangement, with ownership agreed at scoping.
Add data scientist capacity to your roadmap.
Tell us the scope and the stack. We come back with the profile, the capacity and what the first month looks like, or you can talk to a service delivery manager first.
