It's an exciting time to join our journey, we are seeking a Staff Data Scientist (Computer Vision). At our company, technology empowers us and people lead. We believe new technologies will enhance the associate and customer experience in our stores. You will be working on future-looking initiatives that are targeted at improving in-store customer experience for the 240+ million customers that shop at our stores. The mission is to create a step change in-store experiences, leveraging emerging technology to help define and deliver on evolving customer expectations. Its success requires a cross-functional, mission-based team that is highly entrepreneurial, collaborative, and passionate about solving the unsolved problems.
