Depends on the stage the company is at... I've a similar background, but took up a Data Scientist role. However and here's the rub. The company has very little data-pipeline setup and functioning , that much of the work is laying out the plumbing, ensuring it works without getting blocked etc.. I've tried my hand at a few predictive models and cross-validation accuracy looks good, but can't test them on real-life scenario, as some of the data-source it depends on is not coming in. What's worse is they don't have a capable and dedicated devops, so it's the CTO who had started this data puller project and hasn't delegated/handed-over either. So I'm reduced sitting on my ass, warming the seat/chair.
