You'll work on analytically rich problems-forecasting demand, modeling capacity, and evaluating tradeoffs-to help teams make decisions that improve customer experience and business performance. You'll partner closely with colleagues across branch operations, workforce management, finance, product, and analytics to translate real-world constraints into solutions that can be put into practice. You'll communicate insights clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders and help build repeatable tools and measurement frameworks. You'll have opportunities to expand your technical depth and broaden your business impact through mobility across adjacent analytics and data science problem spaces within the firm., * Develop and maintain branch staffing models to optimize banker allocation, leveraging capacity modeling, demand forecasting, and constraint-based optimization techniques. * Design and evaluate staffing strategies (coverage, schedules, skill mix) and quantify expected impact on sales performance, customer outcomes, and productivity. * Build scenario-planning tools to support "what-if" decisions on branch footprint, traffic changes, operating hours, and banker role design. * Establish KPI frameworks and reporting to monitor staffing interventions (e.g., conversion, appointment utilization, wait-time proxies, productivity, customer experience). * Lead analytical assessments and experiments/pilots to measure the effectiveness of staffing changes and translate results into clear recommendations and actions. * Partner with data and platform teams to source, curate, and document datasets; create reusable feature sets/pipelines to enable repeatable analytics and model deployment. * Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders (branch operations, workforce management, sales leaders, product partners) to align requirements and communicate insights to technical and non-technical ## Related Videos - [PySpark - Combining Machine Learning & Big Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/44-pyspark-combining-machine-learning-big-data) - [Alibaba Big Data and Machine Learning Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/37-alibaba-big-data-and-machine-learning-technology) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Let's Get Aggregated: Custom UDAFs in Spark ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1649-let-s-get-aggregated-custom-udafs-in-spark) - [Why and when should we consider Stream Processing frameworks in our solutions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1085-why-and-when-should-we-consider-stream-processing-frameworks-in-our-solutions) ## Related Articles - [Data Analyst Salary in the UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/278-data-analyst-salary-in-the-uk) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Data Analyst Salary in Switzerland](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/276-data-analyst-salary-in-switzerland) - [Top Big Data Technologies That You Need to Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/108-top-big-data-technologies-that-you-need-to-know) - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk)
