About the role
Mid-level Data Scientist talent pool in London, focused on reproducible analysis.
Employer assignments use this pool when they need a Data Scientist in London, United Kingdom, who is accountable for reproducible analysis. The useful week is spent saving the query or script, fixing the seed or the extract date, and making the figure regenerate, with mistakes corrected in the open rather than buried.
Responsibilities
- Review the script or query for a result that can be regenerated and correct it before anyone else relies on it.
- Keep a single current extract date, and archive the older copy once you have dealt with the which data the figure used.
- Ask the scientist who will rerun it to challenge the figure, especially around a chart that matches the table.
- Write the assumption behind the environment in two or three plain sentences, and mention the what has to be installed.
- Compare this week's peer note with the previous one and explain a check someone else ran.
- Stop and rework the archive if you find the version that was shared.
Requirements
- Roughly 3 to 6 years of making an analysis reproducible that matches this data scientist profile, or a shorter record with the same kind of finished work.
- Practical skill with SQL or Python and a saved script in data scientist work, not a certificate alone.
- Able to explain which extract the figure used to a colleague who was not in the room.
- Careful with figures that cannot be regenerated; this is checked in review of data scientist work.
- For the data scientist brief in London, use the working language of that assignment in United Kingdom.
