Job description

At Oura, our mission is to empower every person to own their inner potential. With our award-winning Oura Ring and app, we help over 2.5 million people turn insights about sleep, activity, and readiness into healthier, more balanced lives. We believe that starts from within — by creating a culture where our team feels supported, included, and inspired to do their best work. Our values guide how we show up for each other and our community every day.

We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist to play a key role in advancing our physiological feature pipeline and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with biomarker and wearable health data. This role is ideal for an experienced ML expert who has clinical research expertise around health data, thrives in ambiguous problem spaces, and brings a balance of hands-on technical depth and strategic thinking.

You will work within our Product Science team, and we seek a data scientist who thrives in dynamic environments and is prepared to pioneer in uncharted territory accompanied with a creative approach to algorithmic development.

This is a remote U.S. role with a strong preference for candidates based in the East Coast. Oura employees in major cities (like Boston and New York) will occasionally gather informally at local co-working locations.

What you will do:

• Contribute to development of new human physiology based features and new sensor technology
• Transform multi-sensor data into actionable health metrics by combining insights from diverse biosensing technologies with state-of-the-art data science methodologies
• Develop reusable data analytics tools, which can be deployed at scale
• Actively participate in developing and refining the team’s strategic roadmap, innovating and prioritising initiatives, and aligning project goals with broader organisational objectives
• Lead data collections, write scientific reports, publications and white papers, and present findings internally (leadership and stakeholders) and externally (conferences, etc.)
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and overseas stakeholders

We would love to have you on our team if you have:

• Have 6+ years of experience in Data Science with sparse real world data, most likely biomarker and wearable data with excellent physiological understanding
• Considers Python as their Mother Tongue and has a strong track record in developing deep learning and multimodal data fusion for sequential data.
• Experience with forecasting models, optimization models, statistical analysis, and running simulations.
• Have an advanced degree (Masters) in a STEM-related field (e.g. engineering, computer science, mathematics, statistics) or equivalent work experience
• Expert level experience building and deploying data science products using AWS tools, SQL, GitHub, and Pytorch and knowledge of C++
• Strong project management experience and is comfortable working with a diverse, distributed and talented group of team members
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
• Demonstrates a proactive mindset, thriving in uncharted territories with the resilience and creativity to navigate ambiguity and deliver solutions in the face of obstacles

At Oura, we care about you and your well-being. Everyone here at Oura has a ring of their own and we are continually looking to improve employee health.

What we offer:

• Competitive salary and equity packages
• Health, dental, vision insurance, and mental health resources
• An Oura Ring of your own plus employee discounts for friends & family
• 20 days of paid time off plus 13 paid holidays plus 8 days of flexible wellness time off
• Paid sick leave and parental leave
