Position Summary

We are looking for a Data Science Analyst to join our growing data science practice. In this role, you will support the development and delivery of quantitative models and analyses across a portfolio of marketing clients, including predictive modeling, regression analysis, and statistical work spanning media, pricing, and promotional data. This is a great entry point for someone with a strong statistics background who wants to apply analytical skills in a fast-paced, client-service environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain data science models such as Marketing Mix Models using regression-based techniques, working with weekly or monthly time-series data across media, pricing, and promotional variables.
• Conduct data validation, cleaning, and QA on client-provided datasets to ensure model-ready inputs.

• Strong foundation in statistical modeling, particularly regression analysis and time-series methods.
• Comfort working in Python or R for data manipulation, modeling, and visualization (pandas, statsmodels, scikit-learn, or equivalent).
• Familiarity with concepts such as multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, model fit diagnostics, and variable selection.
• Attention to detail and the ability to work carefully through large, messy datasets.
• Clear written communication skills for documenting analytical work.
• Exposure to Bayesian methods or hierarchical modeling.
• Experience with marketing data (media spend, impressions, GRPs) or consumer datasets.
• Prior internship or academic project experience in an applied analytics setting.

What we offer

• Hands-on experience working across multiple industry verticals and client types.
• A collaborative, learning-focused team environment with senior mentorship.
