- Object-oriented programming, including familiarity with economic and financial modelling; big data modelling; and database management
- Experience with model and data visualization tools (e.g. EViews, R, C++, SQL, C/C++, Perl, Java, PowerBI)

**Assets**
- Good communication skills in both official languages
- Work experience in economic model development, forecasting analysis (building models; estimation and simulation for policy analysis)
- Experience with advanced simulation and data analysis methods (Monte Carlo techniques, machine learning methods, data mining tools)
