Knowing that millions of species are going to disappear in the next decades drives you crazy. You want to do something about it.

We are now looking for a data scientist volunteer to join our team to help us define our strategy for data analysis and visualization tools.

You will operate under the supervision of our leadership team and in partnership with our UI/UX designers and engineers to propose a data tool roadmap and data modeling that integrates within the newly designed SIREN web portal.

Assignments/Examples:
