Data Scientist

MbarQ believes in a fundamental new way of doing AI. Many organizations today are still struggling in truly scaling AI across the company. As a result, the true potential of smart data solutions is often untapped. MbarQ has a mission to bring business & AI technology together to achieve truly transformational results.  

MbarQ is a start-up that is part of the Bluu ecosystem, a Cronos cluster of companies. Bluu is a vibrant community of companies & start-ups all active in the area of digital transformation.  

We believe that digital transformation cannot be done without AI. With your help, we embark on a journey to guide our clients in the right direction. 

What will you do? 

You ‘let the data speak’. I.e. you grab the data, explore & analyze it and prototype insights in order to amaze people on what is feasible to achieve. From data exploration to training AI models to visualization techniques, you are able to deploy the most suited set of techniques, given the context.  

Clearly, you don’t stop at prototyping. You understand that data cleaning, producing high quality and readable code and delivering well-trained, performant & unbiased algorithms are essential parts of your game.  

You take a pragmatic approach in developing your algorithms, i.e. reusing available algorithms/code when possible. You go as exotic as needed without overdoing it. The Microsoft Azure Suite is your playground. 

You work for our clients in a project/staffing setting. In a typical AI project you will collaborate with various profiles, such as project managers, AI translators, data engineers, other data scientists, ML engineers, AI architects, UX experts etc. You are eager to help out data engineers and ML engineers in producing data pipelines and converting ML algorithms to a production-ready state. It is a true team effort. 

You have attention for security, privacy and ethical aspects when building data solutions. 

The world of AI/machine learning/deep learning is fascinating. You like to stay up to date on this fast growing domain and share knowledge and have interesting discussions with your colleagues. As a senior you will also actively coach juniors in the field.
