What Cognite is: Relentless to achieve
Cognite operates at the forefront of industrial digitalization, building AI, and data solutions that solve the world’s hardest, highest-impact problems. With unmatched industrial heritage and a comprehensive suite of AI capabilities, including low-code AI agents, Cognite accelerates the digital transformation to drive operational improvements.
We thrive in challenges. We challenge assumptions. We execute with speed and ownership. If you view obstacles as signals to step forward - not backwards - you’ll feel right at home here.
Our Moonshot is bold: Unlock $100B in customer value by 2035, and redefine how global industry works. Join us in this venture where AI and data meet ingenuity, and together, we will forge the path to a smarter, more connected industrial future.
How you’ll demonstrate Ownership
As the Data Science (DS) Leader for Value Delivery Europe, you will own and elevate the Data Science capability across the region. Your primary mission is to build a high-performing team of Data Scientists who deliver scalable, production-ready analytical and agentic solutions that accelerate customer value on Cognite Data Fusion and Dune.
You will be responsible for the professional development, methods, quality standards, and delivery excellence of the DS profession while coaching Data Scientists to operate as trusted technical advisors in industrial AI and data-driven workflows. You will ensure DS engagements are repeatable, efficient, customer-centric, and aligned with Cognite’s delivery standards.
This is a capability-building role—your time spent on billable or customer-facing execution will be limited to 20%, ensuring your focus remains on uplifting the DS community, maturing practices, and driving consistency and technical excellence across pods.
