Data Scientist II
Job no: 537353
Work type: Staff Full-Time
Location: Main Campus (Gainesville, FL)
Categories: Health Care Administration/Support
Department:29240101 - MD-HOBI-GENERAL
Classification Title:
Data Scientist II
Classification Minimum Requirements:
A Bachelor's Degree in data science, statistics, bioinformatics, analytics, or similar field and three years of experience; Master's Degree in data science, statistics, bioinformatics, analytics, or similar field and one year of experience; Doctoral Degree in data science, statistics, bioinformatics, analytics, or similar field.
Job Description:
The Division of Biomedical Informatics and Data Science (BIDS) within the Department of Health Outcomes and Biomedical Informatics (HOBI) at the University of Florida (UF) is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Data Scientist II with expertise in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced analytics. This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to an interdisciplinary research environment focused on developing innovative data science solutions for healthcare and biomedical research. The successful candidate will collaborate with faculty, trainees, and research staff to design and implement analytical pipelines, apply advanced AI/ML methods, and support projects leveraging large-scale clinical and real-world data, including electronic health records (EHRs), medical imaging, and unstructured clinical text. The Data Scientist II will also play a key role in ensuring data quality, harmonization, and reproducibility, while contributing to manuscripts, presentations, and grant proposals.
Develop methods and tools to effectively use electronic health record (EHR) data; apply AI/ML methods to solve critical clinical and biomedical problems.
Implement methods into software that meets research needs, manage and update source codes as needed. Work in an interdisciplinary team of informaticists, programmers, information quality experts, statisticians, and researchers during software development.
Lead and participate in the design, implementation, and reporting of research and evaluation studies. Contributions to scientific reports, conference papers, journal articles, and grant proposals are expected, including documentation of method, presentation of data, and participation in interpretation of results.
Lead and participate in collaborative projects and contribute to data processing, software development, and other collaborative efforts.
Expected Salary:
$73,000
Required Qualifications:
A Bachelor's Degree in data science, statistics, bioinformatics, analytics, or similar field and three years of experience; Master's Degree in data science, statistics, bioinformatics, analytics, or similar field and one year of experience; Doctoral Degree in data science, statistics, bioinformatics, analytics, or similar field.
A M.S. in biomedical informatics, computer science, information science, data science, (bio)-statistics, (applied) mathematics, physics, or a related STEM fields.
Strong programming and data analysis skills (e.g., Python, R)
Solid understanding of machine learning, deep learning, and data modeling techniques
Preferred:
Prior working experience with EHR data, machine learning, deep learning, imaging informatics, and large language models (LLM) is preferred.
