Data Scientist

Job Requirements

At Quest Global, it’s not just what we do but how and why we do it that makes us different. With over 25 years as an engineering services provider, we believe in the power of doing things differently to make the impossible possible. Our people are driven by the desire to make the world a better place—to make a positive difference that contributes to a brighter future. We bring together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals who are empowered by an intentional workplace culture, to solve problems better and faster.

Key Responsibilities
As a Data Scientist on our P&DI data products, you'll turn raw, messy data into models and dashboards that drive real business calls. You will:

• Dig into large datasets to surface trends, patterns, anomalies, and insights that matter to the business.

• Prepare, validate, and shape datasets — data quality checks and feature engineering included — for every analytical and modelling use case.

• Apply statistical and machine learning techniques to build models for prediction, forecasting, and segmentation.

• Write and run SQL across data platforms to extract, transform, validate, and prep data for analysis.

• Build and maintain dashboards that track key metrics and put insights directly in front of stakeholders.

• Evaluate model performance and turn analytical findings into recommendations the business can act on.

• Use AI tools to work faster — sharper analysis, faster coding, leaner reporting.

What You Bring

• A bachelor's or master's degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Data Science, Economics, Engineering, or another quantitative field.

• 3–5 years in data science, analytics, market research, or a related field.

• A strong grip on statistical concepts and how to apply them in practice.

• Machine learning fluency — the judgment to select, apply, validate, and evaluate the right technique (regression, classification, tree-based models) in Python and scikit-learn, based on the business question and the data at hand.

• Strong SQL skills and hands-on experience with Databricks or similar data platforms.

• Working knowledge of building and maintaining dashboards in Power BI or similar BI tools.

• An understanding of primary and secondary research methodologies.

• Real, practical experience using AI assistants like Claude or Copilot for coding, analysis, and problem-solving.

• Sharp problem-solving instincts, close attention to detail, and a structured approach to analysis.

• The ability to translate analytical findings into insight that lands with both technical and non-technical audiences.
