TAL's take
Solid role at a well-established global company, though the domain application (education/health) is niche.
The JD is very clear about the specific domain, technical requirements, and responsibilities.
Must haves
- 5+ years of experience in data analysis or data science
- 3-5 years experience with clinical trial data and real-world datasets
- Proficiency in Python, R, and SQL
- Hands-on experience with statistical modeling and machine learning
- Familiarity with clinical data standards like CDISC, OMOP, and HL7
- Experience with Databricks for scalable analytics

Personal laptop vs Company one’s
Hi everyone, I’m curious—do you use your personal laptop or your company-issued one for personal tasks? I’m considering buying a new 15” MacBook Air (around 70k INR with an exchange bonus), but I’m wondering if it’s worth it since I can do almost everything on the company laptop. Is it really necessary to spend that amount? What do you all think? Do you prefer using your company laptop or your personal one for personal tasks? Recently, our company has been preparing for an IPO, so they’ve started tracking activity and blocking some sites. I’m unsure if it’s still wise to use the company laptop for personal stuff. P.S. If you do use a personal laptop for certain tasks, why not use the company one for those instead?
