    Excellent Job Opportunity in Palo Alto for Statistical Modeler / Ph.D. in Stats or Math

    I run a search firm in San Francisco called Otec. We focus on enterprise software, have been around for 15 years, and count Peoplesoft, BEA Systems, Agile Software, Akamai and Cisco as clients of ours.

    A 2 year old, well funded, enterprise software client of mine is in the unique position of having too many customers. They are about to be dropped several million lines of data by these new customers, and they are looking for a Senior Quantitative Analyst (my title, not theirs - there is no formal job description, I spoke with the CTO and founder last night and received the requirements orally) to run build and analyze statistical models, run regression analyses, etc., on the data before it's plugged in to the software and implemented into the new client.

    The CTO and co-founder spent 20 years at Stanford Research Institute, and the algorithmic and AI research he was doing there is the core of their software product.

    They are looking for someone with a Ph.D. in Statistics or Operational Research, ideally who has been in software doing some sort of optimization work (maybe for an analytics software vendor, but this is all ideal), but folks from finance (a hedge fund, maybe), biotech, or other industries are totally relevant.

    This position pays Very Good Money, DOE. It's in Palo Alto, right off of 101. The position has the opportunity to transition into more of a development or a product management role as interest and experience allow.

    I'd appreciate the opportunity to walk any interested and qualified folks through this, and make the appropriate introductions. I have been working with this firm for over a year, and they are legit.

    The position starts immediately. Yesterday, if possible...it's an URGENT need for them.

    If you have more questions about myself or my client, or would like to hear the full details, please contact me:
