    Job description

    We are hunting a Data Scientist who makes machines think smarter than humans.

    Location:
    George, Western Cape, the place where your data models will run fast, and the coffee runs even faster.

    At Badger Holdings, we’re not just building dashboards. We’re solving real business problems with machine learning that drives decisions, saves money, and sparks innovation. If you can take messy data and turn it into gold-standard models without someone holding your hand, we want you in our squad.


    What you’ll own:


    • Prepping, cleaning & shaping raw data into machine-learning gold
    • Finding hidden patterns no one else sees
    • Building, validating & deploying ML models into production
    • Keeping an eagle eye on model performance (and spotting drift before it drifts too far)
    • Retraining and upgrading models so they stay sharp
    • Designing intuitive dashboards & tools that make complex results look effortless. 


    Skills required: 
    • Have a Degree or Honours in Data Science or Actuarial Science
    • Have three+ years in insurance or financial services (short-term insurance = bonus points)
    • Have three+ years taking ML projects from raw data to deployment
    • Can wrangle Python or R, SQL or Snowflake like a pro
    • Have hands-on claims modelling, survival analysis & statistical modelling chops
    • Understand time series forecasting like the back of your hand.
    • Are curious, independent, and allergic to “good enough”

    Extra street cred for:

    • Experience with ML platforms
    • Power BI, Qlik Sense, Tableau wizardry

    Why Badger?
    We move fast, think big, and build smart. You’ll have the space to experiment, the tech to back you, and a team that speaks fluent “data”.


    If your models change the game, your place is here.
