Data Scientist

At Agilytic, we help clients turn business objectives into measurable results through smarter use of data. We are looking for a colleague who is comfortable moving between business understanding, quantitative analysis, and hands-on delivery.

Help innovative companies turn their objectives into concrete results through smarter use of data, analytics, automation, and AI.

You will work at the intersection of business and technology to help clients make better decisions, improve performance, and implement solutions that create tangible value.

As a Data Scientist (Consulting & AI Delivery), you will contribute to the end-to-end delivery of our projects, from problem framing to implementation and client adoption.

You will work closely with client stakeholders and internal team members to:

• Translate business questions into analytical approaches and decision-support solutions.
• Structure and prioritize requirements with clients.
• Collect, clean, transform, and validate data from multiple sources.
• Perform descriptive, diagnostic, and predictive analyses where relevant.
• Build dashboards, models, reports, and decision-support tools.
• Prototype and automate parts of the analysis or delivery workflow.
• Communicate findings, trade-offs, and recommendations clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Support implementation so that analysis leads to concrete action.
• Use modern AI-assisted tools responsibly to accelerate research, coding, testing, documentation, and delivery.

Our assignments typically include:

• Data audit
• Data preparation
• Descriptive and diagnostic analysis
• Modeling where relevant
• Dashboarding and reporting
• Presenting results and recommendations
• Supporting implementation and business adoption

Senior Data Scientists also supervise and coach junior team members in both client delivery and internal initiatives. This guidance helps them quickly develop the business, consulting, and technical skills needed to manage projects independently.

We are pragmatic and outcome-driven. We use the right level of sophistication for the problem at hand.

That means we do not apply advanced techniques for their own sake. Sometimes the right answer is a predictive model, an automation, or a more advanced analytical workflow. Sometimes it is a clear dashboard, a robust dataset, or a simple analysis that helps a client act quickly and confidently.

Increasingly, this also includes AI-assisted and agentic ways of working. We welcome candidates who are already comfortable using tools such as Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar tools to accelerate research, coding, testing, documentation, and delivery.

What matters most is not tool usage alone, but professional judgment: being able to frame the problem correctly, validate outputs carefully, communicate clearly, and maintain quality, security, and maintainability.

• You hold a master’s degree in a quantitative, scientific, engineering, or business-related field such as Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Physics, Biology, Computer Science, or similar.
• You are fluent in English and in either Dutch or French.

• You have a strong foundation in analytics, statistics, and structured problem solving.
• You have hands-on experience with Python and SQL for data preparation, analysis, and modeling.
• You are comfortable working with real-world datasets and transforming ambiguous business questions into structured analytical work.
• You can communicate insights clearly and adapt your message to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• You are comfortable working directly with clients and presenting recommendations.

• Experience with ETL / ELT workflows, cloud data environments, APIs, or analytics engineering.
• Experience with BI and reporting tools.
• Familiarity with machine learning, forecasting, segmentation, optimization, or experimentation.
• Experience with version control, testing, and collaborative development practices.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted or agentic coding workflows and tools such as Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar.

We will be especially interested in candidates who can show how they use modern tools to work faster and better while maintaining strong standards of rigor, validation, and documentation.

• You have strong analytical skills and can collect, structure, analyze, and interpret data in service of a clear business objective.

• You care about work quality and bring a professional attitude to client service.
• You are curious about new techniques and tools and keep learning.
• You combine business understanding with enough technical depth to deliver credible, useful work.

• You are eligible to work in Belgium and the European Union. Please note that we do not offer relocation support.

• You want to help shape a growing organization and grow with it.
