Senior Data Scientist | Machine Learning | Big Data | Text Mining

Who we are:

Clustr is building the first-of-its-kind analytics platform to bring the benefits of Big Data to the small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

For example, whether it’s a small grocery store trying to reduce the dead stock, a manufacturer looking to streamline the supply chain, or a wholesaler planning to expand to a new location, Clustr platform will provide them highly contextual and data-driven insights to help make better commercial and business decisions.

Clustr is a subsidiary of Tally Solutions Pvt Ltd, a name that has become synonymous to ERP software for SMEs. Thus in the crucial teething phase, Clustr is blessed to have sitting next to us a repository of domain knowledge, a stable source of funding and a source of very unique data!

What we are looking for:

• Habit of going on a date with data. Fondness of dancing with math.
• Solid track record of building data products; 7 to 12 years of experience with hands-on data science and machine learning.
• Courage to take on novel data science problems that no one has even attempted before
• Penchant for hacking. For example, diving into the guts of a Scikit-learn method and modifying the code to suit the unique problem at hand.
• Ability to quickly translate a business problem into a Data Science problem, and propose numerous potential solutions for the same. 
• Desire to invent new algorithms, not just use and assemble existing techniques / algorithms.
• Ability to mentor and coordinate a team of smart and aspiring data scientists.
• At least one of the following
  • Broad and deep experience working with text data. For example: NLU, query formation, Named Entity recognition, chat-bot building, context-aware semantic search, multilingual indexing.
  • Strong foundations in statistics and experience in deriving / validating deep statistical inferences. For example: how do you determine if the data used to arrive at a statistical inference is adequate or even representative, when you don't know the underlying distribution of the data? 
• Code-Ninja (or Yoda if you prefer) with at least two of the following languages: Python, R, Java, Weka, C++. You'd be spending more than 50% of your time on hands-on coding. 
• Experience in working with graph data (e.g. Big Graph Mining) is a plus.
• Basic knowledge of Big-Data stack is a plus: Spark, Hadoop, Kafka, Cassandra, Scala, Akka,...

What you can look forward to

• A chance to deploy your unique skills and expertise to impact the backbone of emerging economies around the world.
• Experience of building unique analytics products on an untapped gold-mine of data, and picking up unique data science skills along the way.
• A gang of smart, high-energy, self-driven colleagues. Always up for a passionate debate.
• Galvanising vibes of a small company yet without instabilities of a start-up. No distractions related to funding.
• Competitive salary.
