WHOOP is an advanced health and fitness wearable, on a mission to unlock human performance. WHOOP empowers its members to improve their health and perform at a higher level through a deeper understanding of their bodies and daily lives. It’s popular among Navy SEALs, healthcare, Fortune 500 CEOs, and professional athletes - if you’ve been to Fenway Park you’ve likely seen our office sign overlooking the field!

As a Senior Data Scientist on the Sleep Data Science team, you’ll develop algorithms to transform wearable sensor data into meaningful insights and metrics for the user to track and evaluate their sleep. Providing the highest quality sleep tracking and analysis is at the core of the business and a fundamental part of the WHOOP experience. You’ll work with colleagues of different backgrounds, including MLOps engineers, research scientists, software and hardware engineers, to conceptualize, develop, implement and deploy robust algorithms to analyze sleep data. You’ll also directly interface with the product team to identify opportunities to create novel sleep features. We’re looking for someone who has experience analyzing large datasets, developing ML models in Python, and who is excited about the use of wearables in the health and wellness space.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Develop statistical and machine learning models on large datasets to build member-facing features
Research a specific health, physiological, or fitness problem and apply latest advances in mathematical modeling, particularly on time series data, for example, through Bayesian causal inference
Collaborate with data and software engineers to productize models and algorithms and monitor model performance in the field
Work with MLOps engineers to stand up backend services that call trained production ML models
Collaborate with the product team to ensure we’re delivering maximal member-value
Mentor junior data scientists and engineers
Report to the Data Science - Sleep Technical Lead

QUALIFICATIONS:

Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field. Master’s and/or PhD are preferred.
3+ years of full-time professional experience in a related area
3+ years experience applying advanced machine learning algorithms in a related field. Deep learning experience is preferred.
Significant experience working with time series data, preferably with sleep applications
Proficient in scientific Python, including object-oriented programming, and SQL
Experience with deploying production models, for example, through REST API and MLOps tools
Proficiency in data visualization
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Ability to present findings to both internal and external stakeholders and communicate results to technical and non-technical audiences
Strong collaboration skills
