About the Role
In this Phoenix, AZ role, you will be accountable for research infrastructure, point-in-time data integrity, experiment lineage, and reliable numerical workloads while supporting year-round Mountain Standard Time coverage as national clock alignments change. The work requires direct communication, explicit limits, and records that remain useful after market conditions change.
Phoenix Operating Focus
The Phoenix opening emphasizes explicit handoff rules during daylight-saving changes and dependable afternoon review. Arizona does not observe daylight-saving time, so the relationship between local hours and other U.S. teams changes during the year. This opening owns a written clock-change checklist for meetings, market events, alerts, and shift transfers. The objective is simple: no missed review or unclear owner because another region moved its clock. For this role, that means direct ownership of research-platform reliability, experiment lineage, and large time-series workloads during year-round Mountain Standard Time coverage as national clock alignments change.
First Review Cycle
