We’re looking for a Data Scientist I to join our Directory team, ensuring that Garner maintains a best-in-class understanding of physicians and healthcare facilities across the U.S. This is a hybrid role and will require up to 3 days a week in Garner’s New York City office.

Responsibilities will include:

• Build and maintain data-driven algorithms, including AI and machine learning models, to improve provider recommendations and the member search experience.
• Enhance Garner’s understanding of the provider landscape by evaluating and integrating data from multiple sources. 
• Design scalable data pipelines that ingest, clean, and enrich healthcare provider data.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, engineering, and operations teams to translate business needs into data-driven solutions.

Ideal candidate has:

• 1-3 years professional experience in data science, product analytics, and/or healthcare.

• Mission First: Our mission is to transform our healthcare system, delivering high quality and affordable care to all. Everything else is secondary.
• Expect Extraordinary: Our mission is audacious, so we will only succeed by producing exceptional results. We continually push ourselves and each other to new heights and beyond our comfort zones.
• Courageous Communication: Transparency and candor are imperative to realizing our potential as an organization and as individuals—even when uncomfortable. Many companies talk about these values. We live them. 
• Supportive community: We know that people do their best work and learn the most when they feel genuinely supported and cared for. It’s also more fun that way.
