Many companies are transforming their business model into a (more) digital model and accelerate in using data as a key asset. Data Analytics has evolved from data warehouses and BI analit into data lakes with structured and unstructured data that are the basis for new ways of machine learning based analyses. At the same time, machine learning and AI technologies have grown to more mature levels and are well able to address many other data related challenges and opportunities.

Finding the right people and building a fit-for-purpose organisation is however challenging due to the scarcity of personell and maturity/experience of data scientists. At Squadra we have data and people as the cornerstones of our business to support our customer to turn data into value.

Roles

DSS has learned from experience that the first challenge in finding the right person for the right Data Science job, is determining the appropriate job description. When browsing through Data Science vacancies, term like Scientist, Engineer, Consultant, Analyst, Architect or even Wizard pop-up, which can lead to confusion. DSS has therefore made a clarifying 3-fold distinction in Data Science related job descriptions, namely: Data Scientist, Data Engineer and Data Consultant.
