RESPONSIBILITIES:
Lead end-to-end research projects from hypothesis formulation through analysis, interpretation, and communication
Analyze large-scale, longitudinal physiological and behavioral datasets to identify meaningful patterns and insights
Develop and evaluate models that characterize individual variability and predict future physiological states
Translate research findings into clear, actionable recommendations that inform product direction and algorithm development
Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and data science teams to ensure research is interpretable and aligned with real-world use cases
Contribute to the design and execution of research programs
Produce high-quality scientific outputs, including internal reports, white papers, and peer-reviewed publications
Serve as a senior technical leader, providing guidance and mentorship to junior scientists and contributing to raising the bar for scientific rigor across the team.
Help define research standards, methodologies, and best practices across the team
QUALIFICATIONS:
PhD (or equivalent experience) in a quantitative or health-related field (e.g., Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, Computer Science, or related disciplines),
Strong background in health science, with grounding in public health and clinical concepts, and experience modeling longitudinal or time-series data (e.g., within-person variability in real-world settings)
Demonstrated ability to design hypothesis-driven analyses and translate findings into clear conclusions
Proficiency in statistical modeling and/or machine learning methods and demonstrated experience using Python or R
Significant hands-on experience with advanced modeling techniques for longitudinal/time-series data, such as probabilistic methods, Bayesian inference, and/or causal inference
Ability to work across disciplines and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Experience connecting data analysis to real-world applications (product, wellness, clinical, or operational)
Strong written and verbal communication skills
