## Description

I am looking for a Senior Data Scientist for a project for one of my clients. You will be coming on to build the identity matching layer of a customer data platform.

My client client is building a customer identity hierarchy that brings together customer records from multiple systems into one trusted view. You'll design and build how those records are matched, including:

 * Entity resolution, record linkage and fuzzy matching
 * Model-based matching where deterministic rules fall short
 * Match-quality metrics to measure and improve accuracy
