We are looking for an ambitious and self-motivated Sr. Data Scientist who shares our passion for blockchain data and the endless opportunities this data presents. 

We are looking for gritty, technical Swiss Army Knives who are enthusiastic about quickly translating customer needs into elegant, stable, and performant software solutions.

Your job is to figure out what needs to get done and do it.

Can you balance trade-offs between the speed of delivery and perfection?

Is your code production-ready and a stable foundation for continuous iteration?

Do you love working in new verticals, rolling your sleeves up, and solving fantastically hard data problems – often ones that have never been solved before?

If so - we want you on the team!

Proactively identify opportunities where data can enhance our understanding of Blockchain. Support the core of our data science process

Collaborate with the engineering and business team to coordinate timely product delivery cycles

Build and maintain the operational toolbox for the data science team

Curiosity in creating proprietary graph algorithms as well as applying graph data science to blockchain data

Degree in a technical or quantitative discipline, such as statistics, mathematics, physics, electrical engineering, or computer science (all levels welcome, from bachelor’s to doctorate)

You should be comfortable venturing into new and unknown directions while maintaining clarity of purpose. The problems we work on rarely have clean, definitive answers.

Curiosity about blockchain and technology in general

Proactivity in identifying problems and asking the right questions

Resourcefulness in finding data sources and gathering data 

Versatility in attacking problems with different tools and from various angles
