Sr. Neuroscientist, External Scientific Programs
Beacon BiosignalsAbout the role
Beacon Biosignals is seeking an experienced sr. neuroscientist/data scientist to serve as a scientific partner to Beacon’s Life Science customers, working directly with pharmaceutical and biotechnology teams to analyze clinical trial data and extract meaningful insights using Beacon’s devices and AI/ML models. In this customer-facing role, you'll be embedded in active client engagements, helping translate complex neural data into scientifically rigorous, decision-relevant results that inform drug development programs across neurological, psychiatric, and sleep disorders.
As a member of Beacon’s Data Science Group, you will design and execute analyses on real-world and clinical trial EEG data, applying statistical, computational, and neuroscientific expertise. You will work closely with customer scientists, clinicians, and program leaders—leading scientific discussions, presenting results, and iterating collaboratively as studies evolve.
You will also act as a critical bridge between customers and Beacon’s other internal teams. By deeply understanding customer goals, constraints, and feedback, you will help shape analytical approaches, influence product and model development, and ensure Beacon’s technology continues to meet the needs of real-world clinical programs.
At Beacon, we've found that cultural and scientific impact is driven most by those who lead by example. As such, we're always seeking out new contributors whose work demonstrates innate curiosity, a bias toward simplicity, an eye for composability, a self-service mindset, and—most of all—a deep empathy toward colleagues, stakeholders, users, and patients. We believe a diverse team builds more robust systems and achieves higher impact.
Beacon's robust asynchronous work practices ensure a first-class remote work experience, but we also have in-person office hubs located in Boston, New York City, and Paris. For this position, candidates based in the United States are preferred to minimize logistical hurdles and maximize timezone overlap with colleagues and partners.
