Here is some general text I pulled from a recent opening at NextEra:

We are looking for individuals with the qualities and skills listed below:  The capacity of developing data models and algorithms best suited to a particular scenario Assessing the effectiveness of the data model Making use of different data-gathering techniques Combine models through ensemble modeling Use modeling to optimize the customer experience Develop processes and tools to monitor model performance and accuracy   Qualifications and Technologies:  Problem-solving skills Knowledge of machine learning techniques Knowledge of statistical techniques and concepts Coding knowledge and experience with languages like C, C++, Python, R, Scala Knowledge of database querying (SQL) and data frameworks Experience with machine learning web services and libraries: Spark, H2O.ai, Tensorflow Present information using data visualization techniques Excellent communication skills to coordinate between different teams.

Subject: Data Scientist: Roles, Responsibilities, Job Desciptions?

Good Afternoon UAI Members,

Happy Friday and I hope you’ve all had a great start to the new year! I’m currently working with a utility member who was interested in hearing from others on any roles, responsibilities, or job descriptions they might have for Data Scientists. Specifically if you have a template in place for this role, we’d be very interested in learning more.

As always I appreciate your help and look forward to seeing your input.

Thanks!

Hi Kevin:  give me a call and we can discuss further.   In short, at Avista we have built out “job families” with a progression within a “data science” job family as well as a “data science engineer” job family.   Each family has a progression (from beginner to expert) to allow for employee development as skills are enhanced & developed.     The Data Science Engineer is distinct from the traditional Data Engineer, in that it has a bent towards analytic and business facing awareness, not just data.    The Data Science job family is for the Data Scientist roles.  We have been recruiting from local universities for beginner data scientists as part of our strategy with community partnering.    I’ll ask our HR department if we can share our job families with each of the two listed above, as they contain the descriptions. responsibilities, skills for each.

 

  

 

Aloha to all,

 

Nolan Steiner
