About the role
We're hiring a Senior Data Scientist to own the non-real-time, ML-driven side of that system: turning large-scale network telemetry into models and analysis that make the entire platform smarter over time. You'll work directly on the algorithms that cluster cells, detect conflicts, and forecast load — and you'll partner closely with the real-time engineering team to push more of that intelligence into automated decision-making.
What You'll Do:
-
Design, build, and improve machine learning models and graph/statistical algorithms — including clustering, anomaly detection, and time-series modeling and forecasting — to drive automated network optimization..
-
Build a real, repeatable experimentation and model-deployment workflow (e.g., using MLflow or comparable tooling), taking models from notebook to production.
-
Work directly with the near-real-time engineering team to identify where today's rule-based, threshold-driven decisions can be replaced by learned models that adapt to real network conditions.
-
Mine large-scale time-series and topology data (stored in Elasticsearch, InfluxDB, and MongoDB) to uncover patterns in network behavior at the scale of thousands of cells and large user populations.
-
Define and track quantitative success metrics so every model shipped can be proven to actually improve network outcomes, not just deployed and forgotten.
-
Present findings and roadmap recommendations to engineering and business leadership.
What We're Looking For:
-
5+ years of applied data science / machine learning experience, including graph algorithms, clustering, anomaly detection, or time-series modeling.
-
Strong Python skills; comfort working alongside Go-based production services.
-
Experience with large-scale time-series and document data stores (Elasticsearch, InfluxDB, MongoDB, or comparable).
-
Experience with ML experiment tracking and deployment tooling (MLflow or equivalent) and with streaming data pipelines (Kafka or comparable).
-
Excellent communication skills — the ability to turn open-ended "why is the network behaving this way" questions into a shipped, measurable model.
- Outstanding B.Sc. graduates in these fields may also be considered.
-
M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Software Engineering.
Nice to Have:
-
Background in telecom, RF, or wireless networking (handovers, KPIs such as RSRP or PRB utilization, cell topology).
-
Experience turning a hand-tuned, rule-based system into a learned model running in a live production environment.
-
Experience with distributed or streaming compute frameworks.
