Data Scientist
Today’s information society deals with enormous volumes of data. A study by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology forecast annual growth of 2,000 percent in the amount of data produced daily through 2020, with volumes already reaching millions of terabytes. How can such vast quantities of information be understood and used? A data scientist helps answer that question.

NOVUSTAT is looking for statisticians from all disciplines
Our opportunities are particularly suited to specialists who gained experience in academic research and applying statistics within a specific field during their studies. In addition to technical expertise, we look for a structured, reliable approach and a strong commitment to meeting deadlines. We also expect the highest standards of quality and care when assessing projects so that we can support our clients effectively.
Teams of statisticians are also welcome to apply. We often receive requests for complex analyses of large datasets, frequently with tight deadlines. These can exceed the capacity of one person, so we regularly assemble teams to complete demanding projects successfully. Teams that already have experience working together on statistical projects bring a particular advantage.
The right profile
If your background meets these requirements and you are looking for rewarding work with flexible hours, our opportunities may be a good fit. We are seeking long-term members of our freelancer pool rather than collaborators for a single assignment. Our aim is to build lasting professional relationships that benefit both sides.
Please apply to work as a statistician at NOVUSTAT only if you are confident that you can deliver statistical work to academic standards. You should have several years of experience in your research field and be comfortable with challenging tasks. We promise our clients work of the highest quality, and that requires collaboration with professional statisticians.
