Senior Data Scientist

<p>We believe in a world where growth thrives across borders and cultures.  As an EOR, Atlas employs people to work for companies anywhere in the world.  Before we came along, the only businesses offering a similar solution were essentially brokers. They’d outsource your HR and payroll services to third-party providers in different countries. Today, we’re the only 100% Direct EOR in the world, partnering with clients to get to market 82% faster, at a reduced cost, and with lower risk through local expertise in over 160 countries. </p> <p> </p> <p>Atlas technology powers the idea that companies can employ whoever they want, wherever they are in the world. Through our cloud-based platform, we deliver the Human Resources infrastructure that underpins international growth, leaving companies free to focus on the strategy that makes it happen. We partner with our clients through their international life cycle from the first dip in the global pool until the moment it’s time to set up their own entities and run payroll. Atlas is here from point A to point Z.</p> <p> </p> <p>The future of work is borderless, and so are we. So, it helps that our people are located around the globe — in the US, UK, India, China and beyond — and speak 90+ languages. Diversity and inclusion are at our core. </p> <p> </p> <p>Atlas invests in Environment, Social and Governance initiatives through our impact program.  Impact is central to our vision as a business and at the heart of our culture. Through impact we are addressing our environmental impact for society, for the planet and for our long-term success.  Employee wellness, diversity and charitable activities are at the core of our social responsibility.  Impact ensures Corporate Governance operates ethically and responsibly while preserving our customers and employees’ trust.</p><p>We are looking to expand our team by hiring a Senior Data Scientist, a team player who is ready to make the role their own and bring their own ideas and innovations to the table.
