The Unified Search Team at Optum is working to bring industry-leading search technology and user experiences to tens of millions of healthcare consumers and providers. We are looking for a Data Scientist to collaborate with teams and lines of business across the Optum/United Healthcare enterprise to integrate their data into the expanding Unified Search Platform. Reporting to the the VP of Engineering, they will partner closely with Engineering, Platform and Product teams and collaborate with numerous stakeholders across the business.
We are forming a geographically distributed but cohesive and high-performing team of inquiring minds; we plan our teamwork around flexible schedules and other personal needs. You will be part of a group of innovators who will help drive the change for healthcare consumers. We are looking for a data scientist who worked or is interested in working on search (ranking and relevance) projects related to healthcare (benefits, claims, providers, clinical content, etc.). This individual should be able to take the lead for one or more of our verticals, mainly concentrating on algorithms and their implementations, working with our platform engineers.
We expect you to contribute to our IP with interesting ideas around search relevance. You will contribute to the design of our search data platform, collaborate with other platform leaders to create efficient solutions and deliver state-of-art production systems that are easy to maintain. YouÂ’ll enjoy the flexibility to telecommute* from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. Primary
Responsibilities: • Apply advanced statistical and predictive modeling techniques to data related to the optimization of healthcare and digital experiences • Propose innovative ways to look at problems using data mining, statistical analysis and machine learning • Communicate findings, verbally and visually, to business partners and clients • Seek out new data sources and verify the integrity of data that fill gaps and improve models • Support business needs around analytics, predictive modeling, and business intelligence • Collaborate effectively with internal clients, transforming their needs into data science use cases • Provide ongoing tracking and monitoring of the performance of statistical models and recommend ongoing improvements to methods and algorithms An ideal candidate will have the following: • Excellent written and oral skills • Excellent analytical skills; attention to detail, and documentation • An interest in working with complex data; an interest in building new mechanisms for different domains • Leading/mentoring junior engineers You’ll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.
