DJ Patil, the former LinkedIn Chief scientist who recently left Color Labs, now has a new job. He's the "Data Scientist in Residence" at Greylock Partners, working alongside his old colleague, LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman.This title's a new one for me. Venture firms regularly hire experts in particular areas who can help their portfolio companies, like Bessemer's "Designer in Residence." And firms also hire lots of "Entrepreneurs in Residence" - successful executives and entrepreneurs who need a place to park for a while as the figure out what their next company will be. But Data Scientist in Residence? Never heard of it.Patil tells me it's a hybridization between a standard entrepreneur in residence job and the executive in residence roles where experts help portfolio companies. Eventually he hopes to join or start his own company. In the meantime, he wants to work with Greylock's portfolio companies to help them leverage data into new products and services.
