Are you fascinated by applying Data Science to the real world and noble purposes? Don’t wait, we have a challenging opportunity for you at Qomon!
Quick disclaimers:
We obviously do not expect full proficiency over all those areas (awareness & curiosity will be valued).
NB: you should expect the “deep abstract math” oriented research to account for 5 to 10% of your work at most. It’s important to be able to do maths, but you will not be building models all day long. You shouldn’t be joining us while having in mind that you’ll be applying the latest ML algos on some random data. Note also that we are definitely growing so scopes will likely change in the future (less frontend? more data/product analysis? it really depends on what directions we want to go).
We are looking for someone who wants to hone her/his data-science skills, who’s bringing a little something more (anything), and who’s willing to do the whole work and not just the fancy math thinking :)
Here is a bit of name-dropping regarding our stack in the team: Unix, Python (and its scientific stack — Pandas, Numpy, Scikit-Learn, …), Jupyter, PySpark, Sqlite + Spatialite, ElasticSearch (to be killed very soon), PostgreSQL, Apache Avro, Redis, Celery, Dagster, Docker, Kubernetes, QGIS, Flask (to be removed), FastAPI, Vue.JS, Leaflet (to be removed), Mapbox GL JS, Gitlab, Gitlab-CI, Ansible, Terraform, Helm.
Here is some quick information about the team.
We currently are around 17 full-time employees and growing at a reasonable and organised pace:
We are expecting new full-time members in most Qomon teams by the end of 2023 and more later on ;)
On another topic, the day-to-day language at Qomon in Bordeaux is French. In Paris it’s a mix of French and English as we are very lucky to have foreigners in the team!
We meet (virtually) on a weekly basis for half an hour during our “Monday Digest” where everyone shares his/her weekly achievements and plans.
We gather IRL for each quarter during the “100 days” (already described above).
We have a 0 useless / unprepared meeting policy.
We are a small team, the hierarchy is rather flat and there is no micromanagement. But this doesn’t mean that there is 0 management: team leaders, more senior members, and the CEO / CTO are always available on demand to discuss objectives, carriers, everyday life issues, etc. And obviously, at least once a year 😊 It really is a collective adventure and we want everyone to feel at ease 🚀
So the tech team is in Bordeaux 🍷
It has a strong team spirit, it is composed of individuals with a diverse set of expertise, backgrounds and motivations which makes things interesting! 🔥
To be clear upfront, not all processes are set in stone yet and we are regularly challenging our organisation / scopes / etc.
The current situation is that the product team works on 2-week sprints and we do quick writen dailies to understand everyone progress and challenges.
In terms of general tooling we are using Gitlab, Slack, Discord, Clickup & Notion.
Our main focus is to deliver value & actionable insights to our clients. Those should resonate as “calls to action”. For this matter, we are working closely with the Product team to make our innovations accessible and usable by everyone.
The Data / R&D team is still kind of on the side of the Product team (we tend to have less estimatable task to perform and are more involved with clients or during the client lifecycle, so we don’t have the exact same rhythm).
👉 A solo member, Florent!
Note: yes, I am the one writing this job post. You can check my LinkedIn to better understand who you are / will be dealing with. I have joined this unique adventure at Qomon in May 2021, and I have been truly enjoying my time here 🚀 I am driven by Data-Science for good and ownership.
FYI, I am also Qomon Data Protection Officier (there is just plenty of different stuff to do @Qomon)
PS: yeah, this is a lengthy job post, but it’s the way I like job posts; let’s avoid surprises!
Finally, my vision for the data / R&D team is:
Here is the non-negotiable order of priorities in the team.
- Deliver correct data (do all the QA needed, never trust yourself and never trust the reviewer)
- Everything else (meeting deadlines included)
- Still, do our best to meet deadlines.
The challenge here is not only to deliver working things, but to deliver correct stuff! 🤓
Since we are often looking for data and punctually involved with clients everywhere in the world, for this position we will look for a future teammate with a professional level of English (>= C1 in Reading / Writing / Speaking).
