Job Level
About the role
- Analyze and model large-scale broadband telemetry and time-series data used by Calix cloud, including throughput, latency, packet loss, utilization, and device-level metrics, and many more.
- Develop and validate ML models for Upsell, cross-sell, churn prevention, customer acquisition, anomaly detection, performance forecasting, fault classification, and capacity prediction that drive proactive network insights.
- Build features and models supporting network health scoring, service quality monitoring, and subscriber Quality of Experience (QoE) analytics.
- Apply advanced techniques such as time-series modeling, change-point detection, and probabilistic modeling to real-world broadband data.
- Collaborate with data engineering and platform teams to develop and integrate models into Calix Cloud’s cloud-native analytics pipelines.
- Perform EDA, feature engineering, and data preprocessing for scalable, production pipelines.
- Help scale analytics and ML solutions across millions of access devices, subscriber endpoints, and Wi-Fi environments.
- Design experiments and evaluate the business and operational impact of analytics on network performance and subscriber experience.
- Build scalable ML pipelines and deploy models into production environments.
- Communicate insights clearly to product, engineering, and customer-facing teams via dashboards, reports, and presentations.
- Translate ambiguous product and operational problems into well-defined data science and ML solutions.
- Follow best practices in model lifecycle management, including versioning, validation, and deployment monitoring.
Requirements
- PhD (completed or near completion) in Data Science, Computer Science, or related degree.
