Key responsibilities

• Perform exploratory analysis of large datasets to identify patterns and signals affecting result quality and relevance.

• Advanced SQL proficiency: complex joins, aggregations, query optimization.
• Strong practical experience with Python /R for data analysis: pandas, NumPy, etc.
• Experience with BI tools: Tableau (preferred) or Power BI 
  BI tools are used for research and analytical exploration rather than routine dashboarding.

• Strong data visualization skills.

   

Required analytical & cognitive skills

• Strong critical thinking and hypothesis-driven approach.
• Ability to work with ambiguous problems without predefined solutions.
• Experience working with unstructured or semi-structured data.
• Ability to design hierarchies, classifications, and entity relationships.
