Would you like to do high-class end-to-end data science and software development for Kesko's retail business? Would you like to work in a fantastic team? Join our software development oriented data science team to change the way people experience shopping.
People in K Group are working hard on utilizing our unique data to create the best customer experience in retail. We in the K AI team build and maintain artificial intelligent solutions to help and inspire our customers in their day-to-day needs. That is not an easy task: our daily job includes handling large amounts of data (think about the data from our loyalty system Plussa alone), applying machine learning models, writing production-grade software in Python, and improving our AWS environment. We follow standard software development practices, such as version control, continuous integration, and test automation to make development and maintenance easier.
We have a fun and talented team building AI solutions. During the last 12 months, our team has worked with pricing model for used cars, built a product recommendation model for Kespro, fine-tuned recommendation model for personalized discounts, and improved models which ensure the best products to be available in our grocery stores. Next year, we will keep working on these topics, but have also plenty of new things to do.
We’re excited to welcome a new teammate to our team! We’re looking for someone with background in software development to help us build an even stronger foundation for our solutions. If you’re eager to combine your software expertise with data science, we’d love to hear from you. Speaking Finnish is an advantage but not mandatory. You don’t need to be a highly seasoned professional, but we do hope you’ve gained some hands-on experience with real-world software development projects. Most importantly, you share our passion for continuous learning, teamwork, and creating production-grade AI solutions.
We enjoy working together, and you’ll often find many of our AI developers at our modern office in Kalasatama, Helsinki. While we embrace remote work and have a flexible attitude toward it within our team, some tasks do require on-site collaboration. Currently, we work on-site at least three days a week, so you should be comfortable working regularly from the office.
If you are interested in joining our team, send your application with a salary request and CV via the attached link by 15th of December 2024. For any inquiries, you can contact Chief Data Scientist of the K AI team, Niilo Latva-Pukkila. He is available to address your questions via phone (+358 46 8102109) or email ([email protected]). Niilo has specifically set aside the following dates and times for phone calls:
- Thursday 5th of December from 14:00 to 15:00
- Wednesday 11th of December from 14:00 to 15:00
Please note you will need the existing right to work in Finland. Kesko is unable to sponsor work permits or visas. Applicants are required to take a drug test before an employment relationship can be established.
