· Play a key role in the creation and improvement of our new Feature Sore solution, aimed to be the central point of interactions for the Data Scientists and everything happening on the platform.

· Synch up with your team to discuss work-in-progress, ideas, and blockers; plan and prioritize; overcome issues; etc.

· Be a key member of the team, participate in the decisions and implementations to improve the platform’s quality.
