Dataiku is The Universal AI Platform™, giving organizations control over their AI talent, processes, and technologies to unleash the creation of analytics, models, and agents. Providing no-, low-, and full-code capabilities, Dataiku meets teams where they are today, allowing them to begin building with AI using their existing skills and knowledge.

The role of a Senior Data Scientist at Dataiku is quite unique. Our Data Scientists not only code up solutions to real-world problems but also participate in client-facing endeavors throughout the customer journey. This includes supporting their discovery of the platform, helping integrate Dataiku with other tools and technologies, some user training, and co-developing data science projects from design to deployment.Just as the non-technical skills are important, so too are the technical. Our Data Scientists work on the Dataiku platform every day. Aside from the visual tools, our team uses mostly Python and SQL, with occasional work in other languages (e.g., R, Pyspark, JavaScript, etc.). An ideal candidate is excited to learn complex new technologies and modeling techniques while being able to explain their work to other data scientists and clients.
