Skills we screen for in a Data Scientist
What we screen
We recruit full-time remote Data Scientists from Latin America, Eastern Europe and North America. A dedicated recruiter screens for the skills below, you interview the 3–5 who fit, and you pay one flat $3,900 fee per hire.
- Problem framing & metrics — Business value defined before fancy models.
- Feature engineering & modeling — Approaches that beat a strong baseline.
- Experimentation & validation — Holdouts, leakage checks, and honest performance.
- Productionization awareness — Models that can ship with eng — not one-off notebooks.
- Python / SQL / ML stack — Tools matched to the problem, not résumé stacking.
- Communication of uncertainty — Tradeoffs and failure modes founders can use.
How we vet
How we vet before shortlist:
- Model / case review — Real lift or production outcomes, not Kaggle flex.
- DS exercise — Can they propose a baseline and validation for a messy goal?
- References — Confirmed delivery with founders, eng, or data leads.
- Scope under pressure — Clear simpler path when timelines compress.
- Founder-ready communication — Value + risk, not model-name theater.
