Candidates must pair an HEC-approved computing degree with solid field credentials—12+ years of big-data leadership for the chief posts, 2–5 years of hands-on model-building for the junior data scientists, and up-to-date threat-response skills for cyber-security analysts—while staying within the age bands of 40–45 (chiefs) or 30–35 (BPS-17 hires).
