Data Scientist - ( 240003SX )
Description
Many of the world's top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community's interaction with water a bit differently-as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we're hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O U.
Your Opportunity
We have an exciting opportunity for a Data Scientist with extensive experience in mobility, public transit optimization, human behavior modeling, and geospatial data analysis. You will collaborate with clients and cross-functional teams to develop solutions that leverage data to drive operational efficiency, sustainability, and strategic decision-making. The ideal candidate is a Ph.D.-level expert with hands-on experience in machine learning, data modeling, and advanced simulation tools, capable of working in a dynamic, multi-disciplinary environment.
Your Key Responsibilities
- Apply machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques, including Python and R, to analyze complex data sets for mobility, public transit, and infrastructure planning.
- Lead data-driven projects involving geospatial analysis, human behavior modeling, traffic simulations, and environmental impact assessments.
- Collaborate with software developers, urban planners, and engineers to design and implement distributed databases for real-time data tracking.
- Utilize cloud-based parallel computing platforms in Linux environments to process large data sets and develop scalable solutions.
- Support clients in industries such as electric vehicles (EV), ride-hailing services, and renewable energy infrastructure by creating predictive models for strategic and operational improvements.
- Present findings and solutions to stakeholders, translating complex technical data into understandable insights.
- Provide mentorship to junior data scientists and contribute to research efforts by publishing in top-tier journals.
