Data Scientist - Startup

Job Opening :

In today's high pressure urban society, a consequence of the rapid urbanization with a massively choking traffic infrastructure, the societal orientation towards transportation has been rapidly incentivizing on-time reliability that comes at the cost of road safety. Drivers have started adopting new patterns of driving unsafely to reach on time, aware that the current penalization mechanism is less robust (low sampling with small penalties).

Imagine a stress free environment on the roads, just at home or the work place! Think about a world of roads where the drivers value safety and don- t just see it as a trade-off with time reliability, where they respect the rights of others around them (fellow drivers, pedestrians, property, regulations), where they are sensitive of passing the right attitudes and safety mind-set to the next generations, all while reaching the intended destination on time and, more importantly, safely.

Are we living in Utopia- NO. But we are certainly living in a technology-enabled world that is capable of solving the road safety challenges. It will involve massively innovative approaches, exceptional use of emerging technologies (IoT, Analytics, Cloud, and Mobility), lot of energy & commitment, and, at the end of the day a satisfaction of having made a tremendous impact on the lives of the millions today and tomorrow.
