Scientist

Description
Hybrid: This means the successful candidate is expected to report to their primary location (Warren, MI Austin, TX,) three times per week, at minimum.
The Role:
General Motors is seeking applications highly motivated and qualified individuals for the position of Scientist. This is a unique opportunity to join a multi-disciplinary team of experienced individuals who will be driving the design, development, and deployment of advanced statistical and mathematical solutions running the gamut across the technological spectrum.
The team will generate new algorithmic and software models enabling analytic capabilities in enterprise-wide applications. Candidates will develop solutions to problems across the enterprise using AI/ML and other analytical techniques. In some cases, invention and generation of intellectual property for General Motors will be required. As a Scientist, the chosen candidate will be expected to provide thought/technical leadership for their team as problems are explored, selected, and worked against.
Experience with predictive modeling techniques based on time series analysis with very high dimensional data sets, especially regarding kinematics, is highly desired. Candidates should be familiar with techniques from scientific computing such as function interpolation and numerical linear algebra. Additionally candidates should be familiar with algorithms and methods to identify latent class features in both labeled and label-free datasets.
What You'll do:

• Analyze large datasets to extract actionable insights and patterns that drive business decisions.
• Develop and implement machine learning models to solve complex business problems and improve processes.
• Clean, preprocess, and transform raw data into usable formats, ensuring data quality and integrity.
• Explore and experiment with new data sources, techniques, and algorithms to continuously improve analytical capabilities.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify data-driven opportunities and provide guidance on data collection and storage.
• Able to work independently and guide more junior resources through standard projects, under direction of a senior data scientist.
