You'll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely * from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. For all hires in the Minneapolis or Washington, D.C. area, you will be required to work in the office a minimum of four days per week. Primary Responsibilities: - Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): Dive deep into project datasets to uncover patterns, trends, and insights. Conduct thorough exploratory analyses that inform project direction or hypothesis generation, identifying key statistics and relationships in the data that drive decision-making - Feature Engineering & Data Preparation: Create and refine features for use in machine learning models or reporting. Work on combining data from multiple sources, cleaning and transforming raw data into structured formats (with help from data engineers when needed). Ensure that analytic datasets are comprehensive and of high quality for downstream use - Statistical Modeling & Insights: Develop statistical models or simpler machine learning models to solve a variety of project needs beyond the primary AI components. This could include predictive analytics (e.g., regression models for trend analysis), segmentation/clustering to understand different user or patient groups, or A/B test analysis for pilot interventions. Interpret model results and validate their accuracy and reliability - Business Intelligence & Reporting: Translate data findings into actionable insights for business stakeholders. Build dashboards, visualizations, or custom reports that track key metrics for the project. Present analytical results in clear business terms, and make recommendations based on data (e.g., identifying areas of improvement in program outcomes or user engagement metrics) - Collaboration & Support: Work closely with other team members to support overall project goals. Provide analytical assistance such as validating the main AI model outputs, performing deep-dive analyses when anomalies arise, or answering ad-hoc analytical questions from leadership. Also collaborate with data engineers to ensure that data pipelines align with analytical requirements (for example, suggest additional data sources or transformations that could enhance model performance) You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.
