Clarify the data problem
Data roles can mean building pipelines, maintaining platforms, creating analysis or applying machine learning. Describe the data sources, quality challenges, users and decisions the work supports. For AI roles, explain the problem being addressed and how outputs will be evaluated and governed.
Look for responsible practice
Ask candidates how they validate data, handle edge cases and communicate limitations. Explore privacy, documentation and monitoring where they relate to the role. A strong assessment considers whether the person can build useful systems that teams can understand and maintain.
