Data Scientist

Neurable

Job Description

Overview

As technology progresses, the distance between human and machine diminishes. We are at a point where we touch and speak with our technology. Neurable innovates past this to incorporate the mind for the ultimate user interaction. Our company leverages advances in machine learning and neuroscience in order to build a truly functional brain-computer interface (BCI) for the future of communication.

We are looking for a Data Scientist to join our team. Someone who wants to embed themselves into the fabric of the company, tackling not only interesting but also meaningful challenges. You’re not going to be putting together reports, for someone to review, to then discuss, to maybe never incorporate. This isn’t another fintech, “big data,” company. This is a chance to see your efforts directly translate into product and also impact the course of technological development. We are building towards the final frontier of technology, the brain.

Principal Duties and Responsibilities

  • End to end hands-on ownership of machine learning systems – including real-world data sets, data pipelines, model generation, training, and real-time predictions
  • Filtration of time series data
  • Cloud-based systems (Amazon Web Services)
  • Breadth of experience across Supervised/Unsupervised/Semi-supervised/Reinforcement learning
  • Develop statistical methods and models for dimensionality reduction in high dimensional problems with noise
  • Quick Proof of Concept (POC) projects for noisy time series data
  • POCs should serve as learning experiences for the organization, so that they can be applied across projects in parallel effort

Bonus

  • Experience with biological time series data (e.g., EEG ideal)
  • Experience with human subjects experimental design or data collection
     

Qualifications

  • BS with 5+ years experience/MS with 3+ years /PhD with 1+ yrs in Computer Science/EE/Applied Mathematics/Computational Neuroscience or other relevant STEM field. Or just convince us why you’re the person for the job.

  • Confidence in implementing algorithms in C/C++ or Python
  • Experience with scientific libraries (NumPy, SciKit-learn, SciPy, IPython, Sympy, Pandas, etc…)
  • Mathematical, statistical, and probability inclinations with a deep understanding of AI concepts
  • A track record in signal processing that includes developing, implementing, and validating signal processing algorithms (e.g., FFT, DFFT, Wavelet) for solving real-world problems
  • Research centered techniques for scalable and accurate inferences in graphical models, statistical modeling of data, large-scale combinatorial optimization, and robust decision making under uncertainty
     

Character

  • You know and can admit when something is not great. You can recognize that something you did needs improvement - no one is perfect 
  • Comfortable in a small, intense, and high-growth environment 
  • You are comfortable disagreeing with others and can respectfully work with them to reach a better solution
  • Desire to create a positive change in the world 
  • Ability to rapidly prototype real features in a startup environment  
  • A hacker, if something you need doesn’t exist you don’t wait around - you make it
  • Rapidly learn and adapt to new opportunities and ideas
