3. When selecting a new team member, what are the different steps he/she has to clear?
As a candidate, you apply via the open position of your choice that can be found on our website. After having filled in some basic information and attaching your resume, we shall contact you for a phone interview.
If you rock that phone interview, we’ll invite you for an interview at our offices. You will be invited to solve a ‘challenge’ before the interview and present the outcome during such an interview.
If you continue to rock our world, we’ll shortlist you to become the next member in our rapidly expanding team.
4. Can you shed some light on how you work and what tools you work with?
At Crunch, we work in small, cross-functional teams that combine the skills of Data Strategists, Data Scientists & Data/Cloud/Software Engineers. This allows us to work genuinely lean and with a lot of focus.
When we work with clients, we work with the technology stack that is appropriate given a clients’ current infrastructure. That is why we most frequently work with the Microsoft stack, combining tools such as Databricks, Flow & Power Apps in a Dynamics & Azure cloud environment. In other situations, we might want to shift to the Google stack or open-source toolings such as Docker or Kubernetes.
5. Why should I apply for a job in a data & AI agency?
Simple. If you like developing your skills in working with the latest tools in a rapidly-evolving tech space, then this is the team for you. We are still in the early days of companies trying to figure out how to use techniques in the field of artificial intelligence to their advantage.
Yet, we find it utterly important to build tools & solutions that demonstrate the value, the ROI of AI. We believe it’s important to look at today’s pressing business challenges and fundamentally change how companies are functioning.
Crunch is not another product company, looking to add a ‘layer of AI’ to an existing product. We are set to become a service company that learns from working with a variety of clients. We are here to mentor young talent in becoming the most trusted advisors in the field of generating true business value, using AI-techniques.
