SENIOR DATA SCIENTIST

To maintain our #1 Healthcare supply chain serving our patients, customers and parents - and remaining agile in the new digital world, J&J is looking to build capability in developing supply chain solutions that enable supporting the above initiatives.

This hybrid position may be based at any Johnson & Johnson office in New Jersey (Titusville, Horsham, or Raritan). If you are passionate about leveraging data science to address real-world challenges and foster innovation in a global environment, we encourage you to apply.

The role requires both an in-depth knowledge of existing advanced analytics practices and approaches including Machine Learning, Mathematical Optimization, Simulation, data pipelines and advanced visualization and the ability to influence and convince others and customize and work in a multidisciplinary environment to drive business solutions. Knowledge of application of advanced analytics to manufacturing and especially pharmaceutical / healthcare / medical device manufacturing is highly desirable.

The candidate will report to director of J&J SC Data Science to:

• Gather business requirements from business partners and accurately translate those into digital & data science solution prototypes involving predictive analytics/simulation components, validate the prototypes and work closely with product development teams to scale the prototypes
• Build predictive/prescriptive model prototypes encoding complex business processes for deployment of solutions supporting business KPI improvement
• Work closely with product development teams to ensure that prototypes are scaled optimally with respect to adherence to business requirements, solution cost and agility to flex the solutions
• Work closely with vendors to deploy third party algorithmic components into our digital platforms.
• Assist digital product managers in new digital product launches i.e. ensuring that the right user tests are designed for product validation, develop metrics and product analytics to monitor and optimize products
• Assist digital product managers in sustaining and optimizing existing digital & data science products and platforms. This would involve continuous improvements to already deployed models by testing new generations of data science models, evaluating optimal ways to implement those models (e.g. open source vs vendor sourced analytic components)
• Monitor external trends on new types of modeling approaches & solution capabilities to continuously improve deployed digital solutions in targeted supply chain areas such as value chain management, planning, customer analytics, supplier risk management etc.

Qualifications

• Masters degree in Operations Research/Econometrics/Financial Engineering/Systems Engineering or other STEM disciplines. At a minimum, 2-3 years of work experience is required.

• Must have experience with deployment of open source based models into production within cloud based digital stacks. Candidates must have demonstrated the ability to work with data engineers to leverage data pipelines for operationalizing models.
• Must have expertise in various types of Operations Research models E.g. Optimization models (Linear Programming, Non-Linear Programming, Mixed Integer Programming), Simulation models (Discrete Event Models, Monte Carlo Simulations Etc.), parameter estimation models (e.g. Markov Chain Monte Carlo Etc.)
• Experience with modeling supply chain management particularly in the healthcare industry (pharmaceuticals/medical devices) is highly desired
• Familiarity with Azure or AWS Cloud components such as Databricks and associated big data frameworks such as Spark, PySpark etc.
• Must have intermediate to high degree of expertise in tableau or similar visualization tools to created prototypes of dashboards for validation and insights delivery
• Familiarity and experience with ERP systems like SAP including unstructured data sources is preferred
