Senior Data Scientist

Trackunit is a fast-growing company and a leading supplier of IoT solutions, operating out of many offices worldwide. Trackunit specializes in digital solutions that connect machines, people, and systems in the global construction industry. The construction industry is the least digitalised industry of all. This lack of digitalisation has left construction far behind a global economy on the rise and placed the industry as one of the least productive industries too.

We're looking for a skilled Data Scientist to join our cross‑functional team of data scientists, backend engineers, and frontend engineers.

In this role, you'll work closely with your team on the data pipeline powering our Emissions application and more — from modelling data and generating new insights to integrating and expanding our platform. Collaborating across engineering, product, and sales, you'll be at the centre of one of our most impactful areas: driving value for customers and scaling our data pipelines for the future.

With locations in the heart of London, ON, we offer you a flexible setup with the possibility to work from one of our locations or remotely from anywhere in Ontario. No relocation assistance is offered for this position.
