Data Scientist

Data Scientist - AI-First Multi-Project Environment

Osterus | Hybrid with Travel | Start ASAP

Ready to Work on Multiple Different Projects Simultaneously? Love AI? We Need You

We're Osterus, an IT consulting company working with various clients from various sectors. Our 2-person data science team builds everything from FastAPI microservices on AWS to sophisticated PowerBI dashboards (M, DAX, incremental refresh, RLS) to AI agents that do some magic.

This Role is NOT for You If:

• You think "I'm a data scientist, I don't do PowerBI"

• You refuse to use AI tools because you're afraid of getting "rusty"

• You need Jira tickets and detailed specifications to function

• You can only handle one project at a time

This Role IS Perfect If:

• You LOVE using AI to accelerate your work (OpenAI APIs are our best friend)

• You can context-switch between multiple projects without losing your mind

• You're eager to learn whatever technology the project needs

• You have a brain and use it to figure things out independently

What You'll Actually Be Doing

Current active projects include:
• Maintaining applications with AI features, FastAPI microservices, AWS ECS deployment, Elasticsearch

• Complex PowerBI dashboards, AWS architecture (VPC, RDS, Lambdas), Streamlit apps with AI voice/image processing

• Building intelligent AI Agents

• Plus, whatever exciting challenge walks through our door next week (they are very frequent)

Must-Have Skills

• Python (mandatory - you'll live in it)

• Data Science fundamentals - ML models, libraries, the classics

• SQL (because databases exist)

• AI/LLM experience - OpenAI APIs (or any other), prompt engineering, model integration

• AWS basics - at least comfortable with core services

• API development - FastAPI experience preferred

Nice-to-Have (But We'll Love You For It)

• DevOps/MLOps experience

• Elasticsearch, MongoDB, Time-Series Databases

• Other cloud providers (though AWS is our main squeeze)

• Streamlit, PowerBI, Grafana

• Full-stack Python development

What We're Looking For (Personality-Wise)

Perfect Candidate:

• Open-minded and eager to learn - technology changes, we adapt

• Multi-tasking wizard - you'll have several projects running

• Communicative - we actually talk to each other

• Diverse thinking - we love creative solutions

• AI enthusiast - you see AI as a superpower, not a threat

Not a Good Fit:

• Task-focused only - we need strategic problem solvers

• Technology purists - "I only do X" won't work here

• AI-skeptics - we integrate AI everywhere and it's awesome

Experience Level

2+ years in data science or related field. We care more about your ability to learn and adapt than your specific background.

Work Style

• Hybrid with occasional travel

• Multiple ongoing projects (several months duration each)

• Fast-paced, AI-accelerated development

• Real impact across diverse industries
