Prisma-Photonics is a rapidly growing startup company, developing the next-generation smart-infrastructure solution based on novel fiber-sensing technology (smart roads, smart cities, perimeters, and grid monitoring, etc.). The company offers an award-winning disruptive solution; a “sensor free” approach to smart infrastructure. The company is VC backed and in the revenues stage.
Combining pioneering technology in optical fiber sensing with state-of-the-art machine learning, we help prevent environmental disasters, protect human lives, and keep critical energy and transportation backbones running smoothly.
We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist to join our team and take a leading role in shaping the future of our data science. We need your CTO-grade capabilities to incubate and launch the data product offering, creating value to our customers via reports and recommendations. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on environment, enjoys working across disciplines, and wants to see their work go from concept to impact in the real world.
Today, this is a high-impact individual contributor role. However, it is intentionally structured to evolve into a leadership position. As our product, customer base, and data expand, you’ll be instrumental in building and leading a dedicated data science team, with full ownership of methodologies, tools, and people. The Data Science Team Leader at Product will report to the VP Product.
What You'll Do:
* ?Be a Prisma Photonics technology expert – understand the ins and outs of how our products work.

* Analyze customer data and field deployments to identify edge cases, improve models, and drive continuous product improvement. Bridge the gaps ad-hoc to bring immediate customer value, using AI and data analytics skills, as well as collaborating with R&D, Product, and AI teams.
* Implement machine learning or algorithmic solutions to solve urgent issues, with a clear path toward production deployment.
* Once the business need arises and team expansion begins, take an active role in hiring, mentoring, and leading a team of data scientists and analysts.
What You Bring:
* B.Sc. degree in a related field; M.Sc./Ph.D. is an advantage.
* Solid background in AI coding and data analysis skills.
* Track record managerial experience, leading a data science or data analytics team.
* Self-motivated with analytical skills and problem-solving orientation.
* Experience in multidisciplinary systems engineering, laser technology.
