The Team

Our Data Science team is fueled by a passion to impact the future of mobility. We love to find the meaning within the 100’s of billions of miles of driving data we collect each year. We push the boundaries of telematics and transportation by building data and machine learning solutions to power our groundbreaking products.

We are a team of data scientists, data engineers, and analysts that take full ownership of our data pipelines and feature generation and use AWS Managed Services as the basis of our technology stack.  As a part of the team, in collaboration with product owners and other experts, your work will showcase your intelligence and creativity as you solve real problems that will improve transportation and even save lives. Personally, we think that’s game-changing stuff. 

The Role

We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Data Analytics Engineer to join our Analytics Data Engineering team inside of Data Science. You’ll help us continue to build out an analytics data ecosystem that organizes our data for research, merges disparate sources together, and ensures data privacy best practices.
