Kernel is bringing neuro measurement mainstream. We have built the next generation non-invasive brain interface. From the photon through machine learning, we are a close-knit, full-stack team that thrives on pushing the limits. Join us on this epic journey as we strive to usher in a new era of understanding ourselves, each other and the future of our shared existence.

We are looking for an entry-level Data Science Engineer to support the processing, analysis, visualization, interpretation, and application of the signals captured by our new neuroimaging technologies. This position will focus on data analysis and visualization. The ideal candidate has a demonstrated proficiency for writing clean, modular code and a passion for developing their data analysis and engineering skills. You will work under the direction of senior team members in a nurturing and enriching work environment, but you will still need agility and self-direction to adapt to the evolving and complex challenges that we are tackling.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

• Help translate research into production by validating signal processing and analysis techniques designed by senior team members or pulled from the relevant literature
• Work with our team of neuroscientists and analysts to add new analyses and interactive visualizations to our cloud analysis platform
• Improve the tracking and improvement of key performance metrics in our internal metrics dashboard
• Communicate progress, challenges, and results effectively to an interdisciplinary team of neuroscientists, physicists, data scientists, and software engineers

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• A portfolio that demonstrate your ability to write clean, efficient, and well-documented code in Python. This can be from a degree program (e.g. capstone project, master's thesis), preliminary industry experience (e.g. internships), bootcamps, or independent projects
• Experience with numerical Python (numpy, scipy) and plotting (matplotlib, plotly) libraries
• Experience with collaborative software development including version control and code reviews
• Ability to both take direction as well as work independently to deliver on time-critical projects

PREFERRED SKILLS:

• Experience analyzing (neuro-)physiological time series data
• Experience with state of the art tools for big data analysis and data pipelines
• Any neuroscience knowledge is a plus!
