A bachelor's degree is required, with a strong working knowledge of Python and 3+ years experience in time series analysis and machine learning.
This position offers an excellent opportunity for professional growth in areas of near real-time data processing and analytics of IoT data streams. You will be instrumental in developing models that directly impact the success of our customers and therefore the business.
Responsibilities:

• Your solutions will have immediate impact on the efficiency of the scientific process
• Develop advanced machine learning models and algorithms on time series sensor data for product features
• Research, prototype, deploy and own time series algorithms and predictive models, such as classification, forecasting, anomaly detection, event detection and signal processing
• Identify and build new datasets to enhance the models and product features
• Communicate results to technical and non-technical stakeholders

Requirements:

• 3+ years experience as a data scientist or in a similar role
• Knowledge of programming languages (e.g. Python (preferred) or R)
• Experience with time series analysis (anomaly detection, event detection, forecasting and/or classification)
• Experience training and tuning machine learning classification models for better precision or recall
• Hands-on experience with relational and time series databases (SQL)
• Experience with version control software (e.g. GitHub or bitbucket)
• Great numerical and analytical skills
• Graduate degree, or a bachelor's degree with 3-5 years professional experience, in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field
• Knowledge of the GCP cloud environment and tools a plus

About us:
Today's research, clinical, and quality control labs are expected to discover and produce at a pace once considered unimaginable. Now, to lead is to be led by data. The Elemental Machines platform elevates LabOps teams to lead data-driven discovery, development, and delivery by simplifying the connection between physical and digital worlds. The result is a lab united by a universal cloud-connected dashboard and operations, informed by monitoring of every asset and environment, both in real-time and over time. Why? The standards established by operations determine the pace of output and discovery organization-wide.
