📋 Description

• Own the execution of one or more production data science projects, translating broad problem statements into well-scoped tasks and credible analytical results that meet stakeholder expectations. • Design, develop, and validate novel behavioral heuristics and algorithms over EVM (and other) blockchain data to attribute on-chain activity and uncover new insights. • Apply advanced techniques including graph computation, statistical modeling, and machine learning to large-scale on-chain datasets. • Identify and resolve inefficiencies in code, methodology, and workflows; ensure your work integrates cleanly into our production data and tooling stack. • Clearly articulate and defend methodology and results to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, maintaining alignment through consistent communication. • Mentor junior team members, contribute to technical hiring, and share knowledge. • Collaborate closely with peers to bring research from prototype to production.

🎯 Requirements

• A PhD in computer science, machine learning, statistics, physics, mathematics, or a related technical field – or equivalent industry experience working on advanced, data-intensive problems. • Expert-level proficiency in Python and SQL, with a track record of writing clean, testable, production-quality code. • Demonstrated experience applying advanced analytical techniques (e.g. graph algorithms, ML, statistical inference) to large, messy datasets. • Comfort working with EVM-based blockchain data, or strong evidence of the aptitude to ramp up quickly on EVM data structures and protocols. • A demonstrated ability to take ownership of projects: decomposing requirements, driving them to completion, and proactively seeking clarity from stakeholders. • An analytical, open-minded approach to problem solving – comfortable navigating ambiguity and willing to dive into problems outside your day-to-day scope. • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex methodology to diverse audiences.
