In addition we have conviction that visual understanding and reasoning can be applied in multiple new ways to manage physical spaces.

The Role

In this role, you will apply advanced analysis technique and statistical concepts to draw insights from massive datasets, create intuitive data visualizations, and build scalable machine learning models. You are a pragmatic generalist. You can contribute to each layers of a data solution – you work closely with business intelligence engineers, data engineers and product managers to obtain relevant datasets and prototype predictive analytic models, you team up with data engineers and software development engineers to implement data pipeline to productionize your models, and review key results with business leaders and stakeholders. Your work exhibits a balance between scientific validity and business practicality.

To be successful in this role, you must be able to turn ambiguous business questions into clearly defined problems, develop quantifiable metrics and robust machine learning models from imperfect data sources, and deliver results that meet high standards of data quality, security, and privacy.
