Description

Verily, an Alphabet company, lives at the intersection of technology, data science and healthcare. Their mission is to make the world’s health data useful so that people enjoy longer and healthier lives. They are developing tools and devices to collect, organize and activate health data, and creating interventions to prevent and manage disease.

As a Data Scientist Tech Lead for Verily, you will lead a team of data scientists that work cross-functionally with Verily’s clinical, software and science teams to build predictive models and algorithm capabilities. These efforts combine bio-sensor data, EHR and claims data with traditional clinical and lab-based tests designed to gather and analyze biological, physiological, behavioral and environmental variables.

You will leverage specialized and robust cloud infrastructure to capture and analyze digital health data. In this position, you will be a strong domain and technical leader, helping shape the product direction, whilst guiding your team to bring analytical rigor and statistical methods to the challenges of modeling large, diverse and complex data sets to measure disease status, progression and clinical outcomes. To do this, you will deliver key analyses for motivating product direction, build reusable analysis tools and work closely with software engineers, product managers and clinicians to deliver user-facing products.

Their team combines expertise in biology, chemistry, physics, medicine, engineering, computer science, and more to create interventions that exponentially improve patient care. They partner with leading life sciences, medical device and government organizations to enable fast development, meaningful advances, and deployment at scale. Their work spans many projects, including Project Baseline, the quest to map human health beginning with a 10,000 person observational study; Liftware, stabilizing utensil handles to aid individuals with hand tremor or limited mobility; and Debug, an effort to reduce the threat of mosquito-borne diseases using the sterile insect technique.
