Senior Data Scientist - Healthcare

@ CGI

Position Description:

• CGI is seeking a highly motivated Data Scientist to join our team of data engineers and data scientists who collect, store, process, and analyze huge sets of data.
• Your primary focus will be in applying machine learning and data mining techniques, performing statistical analysis, and building high quality analytic systems – deep learning, anomaly detection, natural language processing, recommendation systems, predictive analytics and information retrieval.
• You’ll mentor teammates, develop algorithms and scripts, apply machine learning, and use the right combination of tools and frameworks to turn that set of disparate data points into recommended and measurable insights.
• This position is based in Lafayette LA in hybrid model.

Your future duties and responsibilities:

• Selecting features, building and optimizing classifiers using machine learning techniques
• Data mining using state-of-the-art methods – deep learning, learning to rank, anomaly detection.
• Extending existing data with third party and open sources of information when needed
• Enhancing data collection procedures to include information that is relevant for building analytic systems.
• Processing, cleansing, and verifying the integrity of data used for analysis
• Performing ad-hoc analysis and presenting results in a clear manner
• Creating automated anomaly detection systems and constant tracking of its performance
• Creating object recognition systems from images, video and other media feeds
