Data Scientist - Remote - AI Focus

We are seeking a data-driven and detail-oriented Data Scientist to join our AI tech startup. In this role, you will focus on uncovering data-driven insights related to safety in the trucking industry

Key Responsibilities:

- Develop predictive models to identify drivers who are at higher risk of accidents or moving violations.

- Analyze driver behavior, vehicle data, and incident reports to uncover patterns that contribute to unsafe driving.

- Evaluate the impact of safety initiatives (training, policy changes, technology deployment, etc.) on reducing incidents and improving compliance.

- Design experiments and apply statistical techniques to validate the effectiveness of safety programs.

- Collaborate with operations, compliance, and engineering teams to turn insights into actionable improvements.

- Present findings and recommendations to stakeholders through clear visualizations and reporting.

Qualifications:

- Strong proficiency in Python or R, SQL, and data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI).

- Experience with predictive modeling, machine learning, and statistical analysis.

- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to communicate complex results to non-technical stakeholders.

Nice to Have:

- Knowledge of telematics, ELD (Electronic Logging Devices), or safety compliance systems.

- Prior experience working in the trucking, logistics, or transportation safety domain.

Why This Role Matters:

The candidate will run analysis to predict which drivers are likely to get into accidents and receive moving violations-proactively identifying risk before incidents happen. They will also assess how well our safety initiatives are reducing unsafe behaviors, helping to build a culture of safety across our operations.
