XPO is looking to leverage data science and engineering to drive positive results and growth, requiring solutions focused on machine learning, deep learning algorithms, statistical concepts, data modeling, software development, cloud computing, and visualizations.
Requirements
- Experience with statistical modeling, data analytics and visualization using R and Python (Numpy, Pandas, Scipy, Plotly and Matplotlib)
- Significant experience applying one or more analytical methods: regression (preferably mixed models), data classification and reduction (cluster, factor, principle components, decision trees), Bayesian inference or other advanced machine learning techniques
- Deep understanding of statistical modeling, machine learning, deep learning or data mining concepts, and a track record of solving problems with these methods
- Technical database knowledge (Oracle, NoSQL, data modeling) and experience optimizing SQL queries on large data
- Ability to write SQL fluently, recognize and correct inefficient or error-prone SQL, and perform test-driven validation of SQL queries and their results
- 5 years of experience in data science, or data analysis with a focus on advanced analytics, statistical modeling, machine learning, and AI
- Ability to quickly learn and achieve proficiency in new software applications
Responsibilities
- Conceive and develop end-to-end solutions focused on data science and engineering, using machine learning and deep learning algorithms, statistical concepts, data modeling, software development, cloud computing and visualizations
- Resolve technical issues in existing processes and current development work; solicit assistance from other roles and groups, and drive resolution to ensure the integrity of platform quality and project timelines
- Understand and improve shared standard patterns, templates and artifacts for data science platform architecture, data science development approaches, data models, new technology adoption and rollout
- Collaborate with IT and business teams to identify and document use cases, performance and capability requirements, and criteria for successful solution delivery
- Mentor other team members on technical skills, methodologies, problem solving approaches and standard patterns used at XPO
- Generalize and share technical approaches among other developers, and simplify and communicate completed work to broader audiences across the company
- Help support data consumers to ensure they have reliable access to trusted data
Other
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent related work or military experience
- Availability to work periodic 24/7 on-call support as required by the team’s rotation schedule
- We look for employees who like a challenge and can communicate effectively in all situations.
- All applicants who receive a conditional offer of employment may be required to take and pass a pre-employment drug test.
- Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, sex, disability, veteran or other protected status.
