- Build, optimize, and maintain end-to-end ML pipelines and experimentation frameworks.
- Fine-tune, deploy, and monitor foundation models (LLMs, transformers) and generative architectures.
- Develop prompt engineering workflows and retrieval-augmented generation systems and innovative integration with MCP and A2A.
- Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and research teams to integrate AI into customer-facing products.
- Lead experimental design, data analysis, and performance benchmarking.
- Author technical publications, present findings at conferences, and mentor junior scientists and engineers
What will help you succeed
- Bachelor’s in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related quantitative field; Master’s in AI/ML or Computational Neuroscience; PhD highly desirable.
- 5+ years’ experience in applied data science, with a track record of deploying mathematical models at scale.
- Proficiency with Python (NumPy, pandas, PyTorch/TensorFlow) and strong coding skills in Java or C++.
- Hands-on experience fine-tuning and deploying LLMs and generative AI architectures.
- Solid understanding of prompt engineering, RAG, and ML operations.
- Excellent communication skills, with experience presenting to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
