Senior Data Scientist

Team: Data Science

Location: Remote, US

Commitment: Full-time

Workplace Type: remote

Salary:

• Committed to Parity: We eliminate the "negotiation tax" by placing candidates within the band based on verified professional experience and skill set, not bartering ability, and by giving our best offer up front. This is a core part of our mission to ensure gender pay equity and fairness across the board.
• Comprehensive Health Coverage: Your well-being is our priority. We cover 100% of health insurance monthly premiums for employees and 50% for your dependents.
  Performance Bonus: Exceptional work deserves exceptional rewards. You’ll be eligible for bonuses that reflect your contributions to our collective success.
• Equity Stake: We offer stock options so you can share in the long-term value you help create as we shape the future together.
• Continuous Growth: We are a learning organization. To support your evolution, we provide up to $500 in annual learning reimbursement for courses, certifications, or conferences.

What You'll Do

At Omnidian we believe in trust and autonomy. How you create an impact is ultimately up to you. Here is an outline of some of the things you’ll be doing:

Lead Issue Detection & Diagnostic Models (60%)

• Develop machine learning models that detect underperformance, faults, and anomalies in PV and storage system time-series data
• Build diagnostic logic that distinguishes root causes (soiling, shading, inverter clipping, string outages, communication gaps, sensor drift, degradation) of underperformance.
• Own the data science lifecycle from problem definition and model development through validation and monitoring, partnering with Engineering to deploy models into production.
• Help shape the technical direction for the detection and diagnostics roadmap and strengthen the team’s approach to model design, validation, and testing

Partner to Deploy High-Impact Models (20%)

• Partner with engineering to integrate your models into Resolv, turning model outputs into concrete, prioritized dispatch recommendations
• Close the loop with operations: track how your recommendations perform in the field — truck rolls avoided, issues resolved faster — and use that data to improve your models

Ideate and Explore New Models (20%)

• Explore and prototype new modeling approaches and validate their business impact before investing in production deployment
• Stay current with advances in ML and energy analytics, and share what you learn with the team

Who You Are

• You own outcomes and measure success by the decisions your models improve
• You are rigorous with messy, real-world data. You dig into the quality, provenance, and business context of the data your models consume
• You take your models through the full lifecycle (from problem framing, prototyping, and validation to deployment and monitoring)
• You translate across domains. You work fluently with engineers, operations teams, and customers to scope what data science can (and can't) solve, and you can explain a diagnostic model to someone who has never heard of state-space methods.

Experience You’ll Need

• MS in a quantitative field or equivalent experience; 6+ years in applied data science
• Strong hands-on experience with time-series methods: anomaly detection, forecasting, seasonal decomposition, state-space models
• Production ML experience including model deployment, monitoring, and retraining pipelines
• Proficiency in Python (pandas, numpy, scikit-learn) and SQL; experience with at least one of PyTorch/TensorFlow
• Experience working with noisy, irregularly sampled, multi-sensor data at scale
• Track record of leading modeling projects end-to-end — translating ambiguous business problems into measurable model outputs and shipping them to production
• Proven written and verbal communication skills
• The ability to work with large cross-functional team.
• Experience mentoring data scientists or engineers and raising team standards
• Experience with architecture and tooling decisions for production ML systems on a major cloud platform (e.g., AWS, Azure, GC)

Experience That’s a Plus

• GenAI: Experience developing with Claude Code or putting LLMs into operational workflows
• Solar Modeling: Familiarity with PV performance modeling tools (e.g., pvlib, PVsyst) or irradiance and weather datasets. Hands-on work with inverter, SCADA, or other industrial IoT data streams
• Tooling: Experience with Databricks, MLflow, or similar ML platform and orchestration tooling
• Forecasting: Experience with probabilistic forecasting or failure prediction — e.g., forecasting energy production, predicting part failure, or estimating remaining life
• Optimization: Experience with ranking, prioritization, or decision-optimization problems such as alert triage or field-dispatch scheduling

Logistics

• We plan to have this role start in early Fall 2026
• We are unable to provide sponsorship for this role, now or in the future
• Most of our roles offer the opportunity to work remotely
• If you are in the Seattle area, we offer a vibrant office space in the historic and beautiful Smith Tower, in the heart of Pioneer Square
• We prioritize applicants near one of our employee clusters and offer one or more local gatherings per year

Work-Life & Culture

• We provide outstanding benefits including family medical, dental, vision, disability, 401(k) administration and $1k match per year and thoughtful paid time off
• We offer 12 weeks of paid parental leave to all FTE employees (birthing and non-birthing) after 1 year, and four-week paid sabbatical leave after four years
• We offer a competitive total compensation package that includes monthly health insurance premiums, bonuses and long-term stock options for every employee
• We love to lift each other up through company-wide slack channels such as #puppiesandpets, #omnidian-wellness, #praiseandbooms and #sustainablefuture
• We have affinity groups to help employees feel seen and supported, such as Rainbow Array, Black Lights Matter, Neurospicy R Us, Puente and more.
• We are a passionate, mission driven team that believes in collaboration, mutual respect and trust. For examples, come Discover our Story!
