About the Role

The central responsibility of the Tucson, AZ opening is a falsifiable research idea from point-in-time data construction through out-of-sample evaluation.

Success requires reproducible work, prompt escalation, and clear ownership through review and production use.

Tucson Operating Focus

Because Arizona keeps the same local clock all year, meeting and market relationships shift when other regions change time.
