Abstract

O cientista de dados é uma profissão em ascensão, mas que carece de uma definição consensual e de um entendimento claro das habilidades requeridas. O objetivo do estudo é investigar essa função sob a ótica da academia, empregadores brasileiros e profissionais, focando nas habilidades e ferramentas utilizadas. Utilizando uma abordagem múltipla que inclui revisão sistemática da literatura, análise de anúncios de emprego no LinkedIn, e levantamento de dados secundários de prática profissional, o estudo busca uma compreensão abrangente. A análise revelou alinhamento em grande parte entre as perspectivas, com dados de campo complementando dados da literatura com detalhes técnicos de ferramentas e atualização de técnicas. Um modelo conceitual de habilidades e ferramentas necessárias foi desenvolvido, incluindo hard skills, soft skills, linguagens de programação, frameworks, bancos de dados, técnicas de machine learning e visualização de dados. O estudo conclui que, embora haja complementaridade nas habilidades requeridas pelas três perspectivas, as necessidades são extensas e heterogêneas, indicando a existência de diferentes grupos de cientistas de dados.
