France, FR OECD - OCDE Temps plein

Company Description


The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives. Our mission is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges. From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.


In line with the strategic objectives of the Secretary-General, the Directorate for Employment, Labour and Social Affairs (ELS) is the focal point for OECD work on building more cohesive and healthier societies through policy advice related to quality jobs, continuous investment in human capital, reduction in poverty and exclusion, better health-care systems, good management of migration flows and the integration of immigrants and their children. In the area of public health, ELS has developed comprehensive modelling infrastructure to assess the impact of policies and support policy making. This framework includes the development of core microsimulation models in C++ complemented by a suite of tools for data modelling and management and output processing mostly written in Python and R.


To further strengthen its modelling work, ELS is looking for one or more software engineers/modellers and or data scientists. Selected candidate(s) will become key members of the modelling team reporting to a senior economist. They will work on the development of the modelling framework and, depending on the skills of selected candidates, tasks may include: data collection, data processing, data modelling, development of new modules in C++, validation and analysis, preparation of data tables and figures.


Software engineers/modellers are expected to have strong object-oriented C++ coding and systems design experience (or equivalent experience in Java or another object-oriented language), whereas data scientists are expected to have strong quantitative analytical skills (e.g., machine learning and neuronal networks) on Python or R.
