Skills:
 
Abstract Reasoning – Envisions a solution before implementation by analyzing data, extracting patterns and relationships to establish a problem or solution’s feasibility; develops new algorithms and analytical models using process diagrams, flow charts, and textual documentation to explain or conceptualize a complex problem.
 
Data Mining – Identifies relationships and patterns in data by using a suite of data exploration and data visualization techniques using tools such as PowerBI, R Shiny, SAS JMP, and extracts insights into multivariate data by applying principles of multivariate data mining, small sample statistical inferential tests, dimension reduction techniques to understand the underlying structure of the data and enable sound conclusions upon model building.
 
Data Reduction – Performs data reduction in the context of data mining using variable selection techniques to maximize signal to noise ratio in large datasets for further predictive modeling.
 
Predictive Modeling – Develops statistical and machine learning models using appropriate variable transformations, feature selection strategies, imputation strategies, class rebalancing, resampling strategies and performance metrics to generate descriptive, explanatory or predictive models.
 
Data Smoothing and Filtering – Creates an approximating function to capture important features (low-frequency structures) while leaving out noise (high-frequency structures) in the data using various algorithms like moving-averages, robust aggregation schemes, robust regression schemes, fourier transforms and Kalman filters for signal processing and smoothening noisy time series data.
 
Statistical Foundations  – Builds statistical explanatory models for regression, classification, outlier detection, anomaly detection, time series forecasting using knowledge of foundational statistics such as Null Hypotheses Significance Tests, regression models, generalized linear modeling, time series analysis, rank statistics, probability distribution fitting survival analysis, etc. to validate hypotheses or generate predictions for any given statistical or business question.
 
Text Analysis – Develops text analytics models using statistical techniques and natural language processing techniques such as word2vec, Latent Dirichlet Analysis (LDA), word frequency, sentiment analysis, key-phrase extraction, etc.to extract insights from, or build predictive models from unstructured text datasets.
 
Requirements Analysis – Evaluates relationships and interdependencies between requirements based upon their complexity and value to the business in order to determine feasibility and prioritization.
 
Programming – Creates, writes and tests computer code, test scripts, and build scripts using algorithmic analysis and design, Cummins IT processes, standard and tools, version control, and build and test automation to meet business, technical, security, governance and compliance requirements.
 
Tech savvy – Anticipating and adopting innovations in business-building digital and technology applications.
 
Balances stakeholders – Anticipating and balancing the needs of multiple stakeholders.
 
Collaborates – Building partnerships and working collaboratively with others to meet shared objectives.
Experience:
     * Minimum of 5 years of professional experience
     * Fluency in R, Matlab, Python or a similar modeling language and in SQL
     * Significant experience in building, iterating and validating statistical models
     * Strong working knowledge of data cleaning, machine learning and analytics techniques and experience with large data sets
     * Ability to convey rigorous mathematical concepts and considerations to non-experts
 
Education, Licenses, Certifications
     * College, university, or equivalent degree in statistics, information systems or related field required.
     * Master’s degree in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, or equivalent experience preferred.
 
Compensation and Benefits
 
Base salary rate commensurate with experience. Additional benefits vary between locations and include options such as our 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, Cash Balance Pension Plan, Medical/Dental/Life Insurance, Health Savings Account, Domestic Partners Coverage and a full complement of personal and professional benefits.
