Job Level

Tech Stack

About the role

  • Develop models and analyses to optimize **system performance across competing constraints** (e.g., power usage vs data quality vs responsiveness)
  • Define and implement **end-to-end observability**, establishing metrics across system components and dependencies
  • Design and run experiments (e.g., pre/post, control vs test) to evaluate changes and detect regressions at both component and system levels
  • Build and refine **anomaly detection and failure analysis** methods across complex, real-world data
  • Lead **ad hoc investigations** into system issues, identifying root causes and driving resolution with cross-functional teams
  • Translate insights into actionable recommendations across **Firmware, Hardware, Software, and Operations**, driving measurable improvements in system behavior
  • Develop predictive systems for **early issue detection and performance forecasting**, including in environments with limited historical data
  • Continuously evolve analyses into **scalable intelligence systems** that support monitoring, decision-making, and automation

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in data science working on **production systems or real-world applications**
  • Proven experience **building, deploying, and maintaining models in production environments**
  • Strong proficiency in **Python and SQL**
  • Experience working with **complex, real-world datasets** (e.g., time-series, event-based, or system-generated data)
  • Strong foundation in **statistical analysis, experimentation, and/or anomaly detection**
  • Proven ability to **bring structure to ambiguous, open-ended problems**, iterating quickly to drive toward practical, high-impact solutions (80/20 mindset)
  • Experience working cross-functionally with engineering and operational teams
Benefits
  • Health, Dental & Vision (Gold and Platinum with some providers plans fully covered)
  • Paid parental leave
