Data Science Engineer

We are looking for a progressive Data Science Engineer with technical experience in building scalable distributed software in the cloud that will combine cognitive computing technology with traditional data engineering/science, and apply it at scale to transform enterprise business processes.

The primary focus will be on choosing the optimal solutions to implement, maintain, and modify to realize system wide cognition.

Individuals in this role are expected to be comfortable working as a software engineer and a quantitative researcher, able to modify traditional open-source, or other data/software stacks to realize cognition.

Experience with machine learning, optimization, and algorithms, with a deep understanding of data analysis, exploration, statistics, and general system design, is something that should be embedded in your DNA.

You will need to have experience with unstructured and structured data and be able to transform and analyze data using various tools (eg. Statistical analysis languages, R, Python, SQL, SparkML, TensorFlow, Theano, or H2O).

As a part of a diverse engineering team, you will provide architectural support for scalability, high-speed processing, design, and support the network functionality of Blockchain protocols.

You will have a unique opportunity to shape the model of large-scale distributed system, using data as an input for improving existing products and conceiving new products, and through your experience in building data products and integrating these datasets from multiple sources.

You will have an opportunity to expand your interests and skills by establishing scalable, efficient, automated processes for large scale data analyses, using statistics, NLP, and machine learning techniques to create scalable solutions for large scale business problems.

Experience in one or more of the following areas: recommendation systems, pattern recognition, Predictive modeling, natural language processing, text analysis, and large-scale data mining.

We will expect you to be our team’s thought leader and so you should have a passion for participating in cutting edge research and development in artificial intelligence and machine learning applications, and have the ability to provide expert advice to non-technical staff and partners.

The successful candidate will have an anti-disciplinary passion for advanced and emerging technology across Blockchain, Distributed ledger, Data Science, and Machine Learning, and they are constantly learning how these technologies shape design decisions, make great products, and create innovative experiences.

You will be expected to deliver upon engineering excellence as you strive to build insanely scalable, robust, and fault-tolerant systems.

Beyond this baseline of excellence, you will be expected to show versatility: an intimate knowledge of the whole web stack, and how all the pieces of advanced technological architectures fit together (e.g.front-end, database, network layer, HTTP protocol, TCP/IP, Linux, CPU architecture, etc.) and how they impact the performance of robust applications.

This role demands great technical depth, principled thinking, well-honed product judgment, bold innovation, a high engineering bar, and a mentality of starting with the customer first and working backwards, while taking ownership over everything you ship; and you never call code "released" until you’re confident it’s correct.

You should have experience as a Software Engineer or startup Founder, and have launched multiple successful products and features, preferably on multiple platforms (iOS, Android, desktop, and web).

We expect that you stay up-to-date with the latest architectural trends across emerging technologies shaping business innovation globally.

Our teams at Intrepid Ventures are distributed, so you must be able to embrace an asynchronous communication environment. We expect you to have strong written communication skills in English, and be able to create working relationships with coworkers remotely.
