## About the role

We are seeking an exceptional Applied Scientist to join our Applied Science team. In this role, you will design, develop, and deploy the algorithmic systems that power Garner's products and drive meaningful impact for our members. Our members rely on us to answer hard questions — Which doctor should I see? What will it cost? When should we reach out, and how? — and the quality of those answers is determined by the algorithms behind them.

## What they're looking for

- 4+ years of industry experience as an Applied Scientist, Machine Learning Engineer, Research Scientist, or equivalent, or 2+ years of industry experience with a relevant advanced degree, PhDs preferred
- A bias toward action, quickly translating ideas into working prototypes to test approaches
- Strong applied problem-solving skills, with the ability to define good metrics and then deliver solutions that improve them
- Deep technical range, with fluency across Garner's data and a habit of staying current with advances in the field
- Strong judgment in choosing between statistical models, heuristics, optimization approaches, and simpler algorithmic methods depending on the problem
- Strong communication skills and the ability to synthesize complex algorithmic ideas for senior and external stakeholders, and to secure buy-in for cross-team work
