R&D Machine Learning Scientist

Eight Sleep is the first sleep fitness company. At Eight Sleep we design products at the forefront of sleep innovation. Our mission is to make people’s sleep count for more, using innovative technology, detailed design, and proven science and data to personalize and improve each night for everybody—changing the way people sleep forever and for better.

Our mission is to fuel human potential through optimal sleep. In 2019, we launched our temperature-regulated smart bed, the Pod. It's an absolute game changer, improving people's health and happiness by changing the way they sleep. Eight Sleep has partnered with Barry’s as their Official Sleep Fitness Partner. We actively collaborate with Justin Medeiros, 2021 Crossfit Champion, and Red Gerard, U.S. Snowboarding Olympic Gold-Medalist, as well as the Mercedes Formula One team. Backed by leading Silicon Valley investors including Valor Equity Partners, Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and Y Combinator, we’ve raised over $150 million to date. We were recognized as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in Consumer Electronics in 2019 and 2022.

That is why Eight Sleep is looking for an innovative ML Scientist to help us expand our product features. You will be responsible for designing next gen ML models and algorithms that will enable better sleep and better health for our members. To do so, you will work closely with a highly cross-functional R&D and production team.

We are seeking someone who is passionate about health technologies and about making an impact on health outcomes. We look for people who tackle problems with a system approach, and make data driven decisions to deliver the best products to our users.

How you'll contribute

  • Design next generation health sensing algorithms using cutting-edge ML techniques

  • Work with the R&D team to rapidly develop system concepts to prototype

  • Perform data analysis, signal processing, data cleaning, and algorithm development to assess feasibility and to implement solution

  • Work with the software and product teams to ship solution into production

  • Advance the field of ML algorithms for sleep health, and publish your work at top conferences journals

What you'll need to succeed 

  • MS/PhD in Computer Science or Engineering with 5+ years of industry experience in the field of health sensing and health technologies.

  • Excellent Python (e.g. SciPy, Pandas, Jupyter) programming and object-oriented design skills with experience working with commonly used ML/DNN frameworks - (Tensorflow, pyTorch, fastai).

  • Strong experience designing, training, and evaluating neural network architectures with a good understanding of statistical techniques and concepts (signal separation, spectrograms, autocorrelation etc.).

  • Experience working with time-series data from physiological signals. Knowledge of the underlying human physiology is a plus.

  • Strong command of signal processing and general algorithm development techniques.

Why you’ll love Eight 

  • We’re a tight-knit, passionate team that’s working to improve people’s lives by improving the way they sleep

  • Leadership is committed to employees’ wellness and career development

  • You’ll get a better night sleep every night; all full-time employees receive the Pod

  • Flexible, generous PTO 

  • 100% employer contribution for medical/dental/vision insurance
