About the role
- You'll also bring structure to complex scientific work: setting realistic yet ambitious timelines, sequence priorities, communicate tradeoffs, and move with both speed and rigor.
- Evvy is a primarily in-person team based in NYC.
- We strongly prefer NYC-based candidates, but we're open to remote for an exceptional fit.
Responsibilities
- Set and hold the technical quality bar across the team's work. Review methods, models, and code deeply enough to catch validation gaps, design issues, or assumptions that won't survive contact with real-world data
- Partner with the team to build credible timelines and roadmaps. Help scientists estimate timelines, plan dependencies, and surface risk early so leadership can make real decisions on tradeoffs
- Co-own the ML team's roadmap with the Co-founder & CSO.
- Manage the day to day and grow Evvy's ML team. Run 1:1s, performance, hiring, and the day-to-day operating cadence
- Partner closely with product and engineering to take models from prototype to shipped feature. Hold the line on validation, performance monitoring, and the documentation engineering needs to deploy
- Help recruit, lead technical interviews and onboard new ML scientists as the team scales.
- Build the rituals and systems that let a small science team move with the speed and accountability of a much larger one
- Top tier team, investors, and partners.
Requirements
- You can hold the technical quality bar on work you didn't write
- A track record of helping technical teams ship on realistic timelines.
- You know how to translate ambitious science into a credible plan, and you push back on estimates that aren't grounded in reality
- You can run a productive conversation across all three without losing anyone in the room
- Comfort communicating with non-technical stakeholders.
- You can take a complicated methodological tradeoff and frame it as a clear product or business decision
Nice to have
- Senior ML or data science leadership in a science-driven product company is the bar
Compensation
- Evvy has generated the world's largest vaginal microbiome dataset from 100,000+ patients, uncovering novel biological markers underlying women's health conditions that collectively cost the healthcare system $180B+ annually.
Benefits
- $1K learning and development budget
- Health, dental, and vision insurance, plus HSA plans
- Paid parental leave
- This is a hands-on leadership role for someone energized by the opportunity to build an ML function at the center of a category-defining women's health company.
- 6-9 years of experience in machine learning or data science, including prior experience managing ML or research ICs at a company.
