Some signs this may not be the right fit
WORKING AT AGILYTIC:
We aim at creating a work environment that allows you to do great work, grow your skillset and, most importantly, be happy while doing it.
We believe that data is a means to an end and not an end. We don’t use cutting-edge techniques when not suited to the problem we need to solve. We adapt to what the client truly needs, even if it might look less appealing from a technical perspective.
For instance, we won't train a neural network predicting marketing performance based on 1.000 variables if a simple dashboard showing marketing efficiency across a few dimensions answers the question of our customer.
All our missions are about data, and so far, approximately 50% of them haven’t required any machine learning.
