Job Description

Data Scientist

Junction

• Own the research and modeling work underlying Junction’s highest-priority data science opportunities across diagnostics, clinical workflows, and AI-enabled product features • Define rigorous frameworks for measurement, experimentation, and causal evaluation so we can distinguish signal from noise and make decisions we can defend • Lead development of predictive models, segmentation approaches, risk or routing logic, and other statistical systems that directly inform product and business strategy • Build the analytical foundation behind customer-facing features — from model development through to validation and performance tracking • Partner with engineering and data engineering to ensure models and analytical systems can be put in production, are reliable, and useful in real workflows • Establish how Junction evaluates data-driven and AI-enabled features, including methodology, quality thresholds, monitoring, and performance review • Communicate complex technical findings clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including tradeoffs, limitations, and implications for action

Job Requirements

  • Strong track record of leading high-stakes analytical work that influenced product, operational, or business decisions
  • Deep foundation in statistical inference, experimental design, observational analysis, and model evaluation
  • Strong Python and/or R skills, with experience working on large, messy real-world datasets
  • Experience building predictive or decision-support models in production or near-production environments
  • Experience partnering closely with engineering to move work from analysis or prototype into deployed systems
  • Ability to operate at both strategic and hands-on levels: defining the roadmap while also getting into the details when needed
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills; able to explain methods, findings, and tradeoffs to executives as well as technical peers
  • Comfort operating in a startup environment with ambiguity, limited structure, and high ownership

Benefits

  • Generous early stage options (extended exercise post 2 years employment)
  • Regular in-person offsites, last were in Tenerife and Miami
