The posting

Employment Type

Remote (Global) | Flexible Engagement | Switzerland-based Startup (Stealth)

About the Opportunity

humani is the strategic HR partner with a well-funded, Switzerland-based seed engineering startup operating in stealth mode, backed by established family office investors with long-term commitment.

We are building a globally distributed, fully remote team of scientists and engineers who collaborate across time zones, disciplines, and industries. Our working model is intentionally flexible: contributors may join as consultants, freelancers, or part-time collaborators while maintaining other professional commitments. As the company grows, there will be opportunities to transition into full-time roles for those who wish to deepen their involvement.

The Role

We are looking for a Statistical Data Scientist who combines rigorous statistical thinking, scientific curiosity, and modern analytical methods to transform complex experimental and biological data into actionable insight.

Your focus is not model building for its own sake—it is enabling better scientific and business decisions through evidence, uncertainty quantification, and clear interpretation.

What You Will Do

  • Collaborate with seed engineers, breeders, biologists, and data engineers
  • Translate complex statistical results into clear, decision-ready insights
  • Design and analyse biological and experimental datasets with statistical rigor
  • Build predictive models for breeding and product development decisions
  • Apply machine learning where it adds meaningful value beyond classical statistics
  • Ensure experimental conclusions are robust, reproducible, and well-validated

Requirements

What You Bring

  • MSc or PhD in Statistics, Biostatistics, Applied Mathematics, Quantitative Genetics, Econometrics, or related field
  • Strong grounding in statistical inference, experimental design, regression, and mixed models
  • Experience with Python and/or R
  • Familiarity with predictive modelling and modern machine learning approaches
  • Strong communication skills and ability to simplify complex reasoning
  • Curiosity for scientific problem-solving beyond standard analytics

What Success Looks Like. Within your first year, you will:

  • Improve experimental design and analytical quality
  • Become a trusted scientific advisor across teams
  • Deliver predictive models that influence real-world decisions
  • Strengthen evidence-based decision-making across the organisation

Benefits

  • Work at the intersection of statistics, biology, and engineering in a company where scientific thinking is central to every decision.
  • Be part of a strong and truly international initiative
  • Get well compensated for your time while being capable to keep your morning or research arrangements

Special Conditions

  • This is not a sponsored visa job.
  • It requires trips in central Europe once a month for about 5 days. All relevant expenses are covered by the company.
  • We are looking for people that further to their strong background they do enjoy what they do and wish to make a manageble change to the world

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
