Data Scientist

At AlphaSights, we search through more than 500 million professionals working in the world today to find the small handful of experts qualified to answer our clients needs. They use these insights to drive amazing progress within their organisations. Our mission is to provide access to dispersed, hidden, and underutilized knowledge.

We’ve made terrific progress working in this new space, but there is still an incredible amount of work to do. We’ve only just scratched the surface on how we can apply technology to this problem.

AlphaSights' Data Scientists help to build new products, improve search and discovery, and perform predictive analysis to improve new client conversions. As a data scientist you will find patterns in a unique view into the world economy and develop an understanding of why clients seek experts. Ultimately, your work will power the next generation of features to help our clients find who their looking for.

We're looking for people who are interested in building software systems to an incredibly high standard, comfortable working across multiple languages, and learn quickly when new technologies are introduced. We care more about your engineering and data science skills versus your deep knowledge of a particular language or framework.

You will:

  • Improve the speed at which we can help clients find the advisors they are looking for
  • Develop data science products to improve workflow effeciency
  • Work in small, nimble teams
  • Understand our business context deeply and leverage your engineering and data science knowledge to propose creative solutions to problems
  • Write production level code to expose the models that you build
  • Contribute to our open source projects

You might be a fit if you:

  • Have 3+ years of industry experience
  • Have experience with Natural Language Processing, including techniques such as Word2Vec, Recurrent Neural Networks, and LSTMs
  • Have built Machine Learning solutions, Statistical Models, or Recommendation Systems that serve results on demand to web applications
  • Enjoy the end to end ownership, decision making, and fast paced development of greenfield projects
  • Have a proven track record of building product offerings end to end
  • Constantly learn from and mentor others
  • See yourself as an entrepreneur as well as a data scientist
  • Are interested in working in a team applying data science to solve challenging business problems
  • Deep learning a plus

You might work on:

  • Recommendation systems
  • Predictive models using real time data of the global economy
  • Trend analysis

Who you would work with:

  • You would join a dynamic, multinational, and diverse team who enjoy solving interesting problems in a collaborative environment
  • We have self-taught engineers and data scientists as well as graduates from top Computer Science and Engineering schools
  • Your co-workers will include motivated recent graduates as well as experienced industry leaders from companies such as Google and Amazon

Don't worry if your experience or background doesn't match all of these areas, we believe a broad spectrum of experience provides great perspective on solving problems in new and innovative ways and we’d love to hear from you.
