The primary duty of a Lead/Senior Data Scientist is to research, evaluate, and implement advanced descriptive and predictive data models, with a preference for unsupervised techniques based on Statistical Analysis, and Graph-based methods. Familiarity/Expertise with Unstructured Data Analysis, Natural Language, Deep Learning, as well as extensive software engineering skills is required.

Responsibilities:

  • Research, evaluate, and build descriptive and predictive decision strategies to be implemented as part of our Jumio analytics Innovation roadmap. In addition to familiarity with classical data analysis tasks, such as data cleansing, wrangling, pattern identification and variable creation, the position will focus on the use of new techniques for data segmentation and analysis to bring innovation to our cognitive analytics group. Examples of the later are research and implementation of anomaly detection and outlier detection methods based on graph analytics and connected data analysis.
  • Lead technical implementation of models and innovative solutions for new analytics in fraud detection, health care, and decision recommendation.
  • Collaborate tightly with an existing team of Jumio scientists doing applied R&D on cognitive analytics, while actively contributing with the engineering team tasked with the implementation of these new analytic approaches. Keep up to date with latest technologies trends. Communicate results and ideas to the rest of the team.
  • Assist with client meetings and client engagements to promote the new technology, implement proof of concepts, and solve real life data problems. Provide support for customer meetings, model construction, and pre-sales engagements.
  • Write documentation related to research and product features to present to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Serve as a source of technical expertise and leadership across development teams.
