Looking for Senior EEG scientist - (close to) PhD level - Location Amsterdam

Are you a methodologically strong neuroscientist with a lot of experience in M/EEG? Do you enjoy translating scientific insights into practical recommendations that customers can use? Then you might be our new Senior EEG Scientist!

About the company, Alpha.One
Alpha.One is a young Dutch company that operates in the domain where neuroscience, marketing and machine learning (AI) meet.

The Senior EEG scientist will be part of the Alpha.One science team. This team conducts neuroscience lab research using EEG and eye tracking. With these tools we generate actionable insights for customers to develop better advertising and communication. In addition, the science team is responsible for the scientific development of the AI-powered ad testing platforms expoze.io<http://expoze.io> and Junbi.ai. These platforms allow users to test the effectiveness of advertisements without the need for participants.

The core values of Alpha.One are rooted-in-science, actionable-results, and what-you-see-is-what-you-get. In addition to developing marketing products, we also develop applications and products to increase social impact and diversity.

About the role
As a Senior EEG scientist you stand with one leg firmly in science. You manage the team of junior researchers and carry out the EEG and eye tracking research with them. You analyze the data according to our standardized methods, and work on optimizing the analysis pipeline. You contribute to the development of new applications based on machine learning and you are jointly responsible for supervising master students who do an internship in the science team. With the other leg you stand on the customer side in marketing. We don't expect you to have experience with this part, but you are interested in it. You will be trained in this and grow and develop this skill on the job. You learn to translate the client’s research questions into a robust research proposal. You will also work on reports and presentations in which the research findings are translated into practical recommendations for our clients.
