A Data Scientist in the technology industry plays a pivotal role in making sense of complex data sets and providing data-driven insights to help shape strategic decisions and solve business problems. They apply statistical analysis, predictive modeling, and machine learning algorithms to analyze and interpret big data, identify trends and patterns, and predict outcomes. They also work closely with business stakeholders to understand their problems and develop appropriate data models.

Prior to becoming a Data Scientist, one might have worked as a Data Analyst, Business Intelligence Analyst, or a Statistician.
