Data Scientist - Remote

Overview

Junction is building the infrastructure layer for diagnostic healthcare, making patient data accessible, actionable, and automated across labs and devices. We’re looking for a Data Scientist to take ownership of our highest-leverage statistical, modeling, and evaluation work across diagnostics and AI-enabled product development.

In Short

• You: Can define what should be measured, how it should be modeled, and how those insights should shape product and company decisions.

• Ownership: You’ll own Junction’s highest-leverage statistical, modeling, and evaluation work across diagnostics, clinical workflows, and AI-enabled product development.

• Scope: This is not a pure IC modeling role and not a reporting role. You’ll set the methodology, research roadmap, and decision framework for how Junction uses data to drive product, clinical, and business outcomes.

• Salary: $180,000 – $220,000 + equity

• Location: Fully remote (EST timezone only)

Requirements

• Strong track record of leading high-stakes analytical work that influenced product, operational, or business decisions
• Deep foundation in statistical inference, experimental design, observational analysis, and model evaluation
• Strong Python and/or R skills, with experience working on large, messy real-world datasets
• Experience building predictive or decision-support models in production or near-production environments
• Experience partnering closely with engineering to move work from analysis or prototype into deployed systems
• Ability to operate at both strategic and hands-on levels: defining the roadmap while also getting into the details when needed
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills; able to explain methods, findings, and tradeoffs to executives as well as technical peers
• Comfort operating in a startup environment with ambiguity, limited structure, and high ownership

Benefits

• Generous early stage options (extended exercise post 2 years employment)
• Regular in-person offsites, last were in Tenerife and Miami
• Monthly learning budget of $300 for personal development and productivity
• Flexible, remote-first working - including $1K for home office equipment
• Monthly budget of $150 to use towards a coworking space
• 25 days off a year + national holidays
• Healthcare coverage depending on location
