• Strong understanding of data science methodologies, cloud environments and the analytics lifecycle
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to simplify complex concepts for non‑technical audiences
• Experience working in Agile environments and across multiple stakeholder groups
• A degree in a scientific or engineering discipline or equivalent commercial experience
