I wonder if I can find a "full-stack data scientist" role like I had at Twitter.
What I mean is the core value-add was looking at data, but 80% of the time spent wasn't "data science" work because the data often wasn't available in a format DSes normally handle and also because you often need to drive and/or implement the fixes/changes yourself, which is out of scope for a normal DS.
Also, the stuff I did required a level of domain knowledge that would be very unusual for a data scientist
