Data Scientist bei Open Roles

The Role

As a Data Scientist at Trillium, you will be the primary analytics driver responsible for developing dashboards, reports, models, and exploratory studies that surface actionable insights for leadership, traders, and cross-functional teams such as Finance, HR, and Operations. You’ll bring a researcher’s mindset—framing hypotheses, testing ideas, and applying statistical rigor—to uncover signals that shape strategy and performance.
