If you have a familiarity with data science, there are many companies looking for people with experience in this field to build out their teams. I went to a meeting of data science professionals recently and they outlined some of what they're looking for, and I made a board on it if you'd like to look at it. http://www.verious.com/board/AKumar/the-hive-a-b-testing-inf...

Interesting challenge. I just attended a meeting of data science professionals at linkedin, microsoft, netflix and lean plum they all were talking about the need for more data science professionals. This might help you out if you're thinking about entering this challenge. http://www.verious.com/board/AKumar/the-hive-a-b-testing-inf...
