Proficiency in Python or R (pandas, NumPy, Jupyter) and strong SQL skills

Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI)

Solid understanding of statistical modeling, experimentation, and A / B testing

Strong communication skills for translating technical work into strategic insights
