Key requirements include:
- Strong commercial experience in applied statistics and experimental design
- Proven capability in bias and fairness evaluation for AI or algorithmic systems

- Ability to critically assess methodology, limitations, and real-world implications of analytical outputs
- Confidence communicating complex findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
