PhD's in an exciting multi-faceted career in data mining:
* Analyze data for customers using IBM's industry-leading data mining
products
* Interact directly with senior management at Fortune 500 companies
* Teach data mining classes to our customers and develop course materials
* Travel, see the world! (One member of our team just got back

are not vacations, it's their job!)
* Interact with researchers and product developers, discuss ideas for
new data mining algorithms, new visualizations, and new features
for our products

answer hard questions
* Work with the marketing group to help develop brochures, etc.

mining (background in statistics, machine learning, neural nets, or
pattern recognition, or related), with a desire to learn more

a team
* is a fast learner, can quickly become an expert in a new industry
and work with IBM consultants to productively apply data mining

out to dinner, insists on paying every time, etc...
Positions are available for both senior applicants (professors, PhD's,
MBA's, or 4+ years relevant business experience) and more junior
members (MS, BS, less job experience). Salaries are competitive, and
based on experience. The jobs are focused on business, but some amount
of time spent on research may be negotiated. IBM's data mining group
is growing quickly, and offers excellent career opportunities.
