Job Summary
Drive the future of HR and workforce analytics in a large, mission-driven healthcare system, designing and delivering advanced, action-oriented data science solutions that truly impact employee engagement, patient outcomes, and financial performance. This role is ideal for a self-driven, visionary data scientist who thrives on creating transformative projects, influencing leaders at all levels, and building not just insights, but actionable change across the organization-leveraging expertise in AI, causal inference, and predictive analytics to fuel rapid, sustainable improvement.
Role Overview
As a People Analytics Data Scientist, you will design and implement scalable, innovative solutions using advanced data science methods-ranging from observational experimentation and causal inference to predictive modeling and cutting-edge agentic AI. Your work will uncover high-confidence relationships between employee experience and business outcomes, then translate those findings into customer-facing solutions that inspire leaders to take action. You will partner with stakeholders across HR, clinical operations, finance, and executive leadership, ensuring actionable insights are embedded directly into decision-making. In addition, you will mentor colleagues, raising the bar for analytics practices across the team.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and lead analytical projects that transform HR data into actionable insights connected to organizational outcomes.
- Develop and apply advanced techniques, including causal inference, experimentation, predictive modeling, and AI-driven solutions, to identify factors influencing workforce, clinical and business performance.
- Build analytic frameworks that accelerate not only time to insights but time to action-taking.
- Apply agentic AI approaches to create decision-support solutions that nudge and inspire leaders to act on insights.
- Translate complex concepts into clear narratives for both technical and non-technical stakeholders, influencing leaders at all levels.
- Proactively identify opportunities where data can positively shape outcomes across HR, clinical, and financial domains.
- Mentor and coach junior analytics team members, fostering stronger technical, strategic, and storytelling capabilities.
Highly Preferred Skills & Qualifications
- Advanced degree (Master?s or PhD) in data science, statistics, computer science, economics, or a related quantitative field.
- Proven experience leading end-to-end data science projects in HR, healthcare, or related domains.
- Deep expertise in observational studies, causal inference, and experimentation (e.g., quasi-experimental designs, A/B testing, natural experiments).
- Proficiency in data science tools and languages (Python, R, SQL, cloud-based environments).
- Strong understanding of predictive modeling, machine learning, and AI, including emerging approaches such as agentic AI.
- Exceptional communication skills with demonstrated ability to influence organizational leaders and inspire adoption of solutions.
- Track record of mentoring and building team capability.
- Self-starter who thrives in environments with high autonomy and broad impact.
Nice-to-Have Experience
- Experience in healthcare, hospital systems, or regulated industries.
- Integration of data-driven insights directly into workflows, digital tools, or decision-support platforms.
- Knowledge of workforce strategy, HR analytics, or organizational effectiveness metrics.
What Makes This Role Unique
- Opportunity to pioneer agentic AI and human-centered data science within healthcare HR.
- Direct influence on reducing workforce challenges that affect employee and improve patient and business outcomes.
- High visibility across leadership, with the ability to transform insights into systemic organizational change.
- A mandate to shape strategy, not just analyze data-this role is built for action-oriented impact.
