Responsibilities

• Lead the data science lifecycle, from discovery and exploration to delivery and customer hand-off.
• Translate ambiguous business problems into clear problem statements and deliver working, production-ready solutions.
• Partner with customers and internal stakeholders to co-design use cases, define success criteria, and ensure models are adopted and successful in production.
• Build quick, iterative prototypes to test ideas, and work cross-functionally to deploy validated solutions into production environments.
• Own and improve pipelines for data integration, validation, and monitoring, ensuring long-term stability and performance.
• Analyze large-scale structured and unstructured datasets to extract insights and power model development.
• Apply machine learning, NLP, graph analytics, and other advanced techniques to solve challenging problems such as semantic search, or anomaly detection.
• Create and maintain internal data science tooling to streamline experimentation, testing, and delivery.
• Support internal teams and customers with issue resolution, ensuring data science solutions continue to deliver value post-deployment.
• Follow and advocate for best practices in MLOps, DataOps, and clean code to ensure reproducibility, maintainability, and scalability.
