Understanding of machine learning algorithms and statistics is an asset. • You understand the business context.

Float is a dynamic environment and things can change quickly. You should be flexible and able to adapt to changes as they occur. • You can balance attention to detail and strategic thinking.

Being able to effectively manage your workload and meet deadlines is crucial. • You have an experimental mindset.
