Description:
We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Data Scientist to join our Content Engineering team. This role requires a strong engineering mindset combined with expertise in data science and emerging AI technologies. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to design, develop, and deploy solutions that leverage machine learning and generative AI to enhance content workflows.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and implement machine learning models (classification and predictive models) to solve business problems.
- Contribute to Generative AI initiatives, including prompt engineering, prompt validation, and optimization for agentic workflows.
- Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code primarily in Python.
- Collaborate within an engineering team, following best practices such as unit testing, CI/CD pipelines, code reviews, and pull requests.
- Work with Databricks for data processing and model deployment (experience is a plus).
- Partner with stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into scalable solutions.
- Stay updated on emerging trends in AI/ML, particularly in Generative AI and automation.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
- 5+ years of experience in data science or related roles.
- Strong programming skills in Python and familiarity with software engineering principles.
- Hands-on experience with machine learning frameworks (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
- Knowledge of prompt engineering and Generative AI concepts.
- Understanding of CI/CD processes, testing frameworks, and collaborative development practices.
- Familiarity with Databricks (nice to have).
- Basic awareness of AWS concepts (e.g., S3 buckets) is a plus, though not mandatory.
- Hands-on experience with Database frameworks (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL)
- Good to have experience in tracking tools (e.g. MLflow, W&B, Neptune.ai)
- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience in data-driven automation and content workflows.
- Exposure to large language models (LLMs) and agentic AI systems.
- Ability to mentor junior engineers and contribute to design reviews and best practices.
