Job Description
What You'll Do
-
Engage with clients in the US to understand business objectives, translate them into AI/ML solution roadmaps, and communicate progress and results clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
-
Lead the design, development, and optimisation of AI/ML models—including LLMs, RAG pipelines, embeddings, and predictive models—for complex, real-world client problems.
-
Build end-to-end ML workflows on platforms like Databricks, from data ingestion and feature engineering to training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring.
-
Design and implement generative AI and agentic workflows that integrate LLMs with enterprise data sources, APIs, and existing business processes.
-
Collaborate with data engineers, BI developers, and client stakeholders to prepare large, high-quality datasets and integrate models into production applications and data products.
-
Establish and promote AI/ML best practices around experimentation, reproducibility, versioning, performance tracking, and model governance across projects.
-
Mentor and guide junior team members, review code and solution designs, and provide technical leadership during architecture and strategy discussions.
What You Bring
-
4–7 years of industry experience in applied machine learning or data science, or 3–5 years combined with a recent Ph.D. in Computer Science, AI, Machine Learning, Statistics, or a related field.
-
Strong proficiency in Python and core ML/AI libraries and frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, Hugging Face Transformers).
-
Hands-on experience building and deploying LLM-based solutions, including embeddings, RAG architectures, and generative or conversational AI applications.
-
Proven track record of developing predictive models for classification, regression, or forecasting, with solid understanding of algorithms, statistical modelling, and optimisation techniques.
-
Significant experience working on Databricks or similar cloud-based data and ML platforms, including notebooks, ML runtimes, and scalable data processing.
-
Exposure to MLOps practices and tools (e.g., MLflow, model registries, CI/CD, containerization) and deploying models to production in AWS, GCP, or Azure environments.
-
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work independently, collaborate in distributed teams, and communicate complex concepts clearly to diverse stakeholders.
Nice to Have
-
Master’s or Ph.D. in a quantitative discipline (Computer Science, Machine Learning, Statistics, Mathematics, or related field).
-
Experience with building agentic AI workflows, tools, or orchestration frameworks for complex multi-step tasks.
-
Familiarity with broader programming ecosystems such as R or C++ for performance-critical or legacy integration scenarios.
-
Background in data-intensive consulting, analytics services, or working directly with enterprise clients across multiple domains.
-
Experience implementing responsible AI practices, including model explainability, bias detection/mitigation, and compliance-aware data handling.
-
Hands-on experience with feature stores, vector databases, and real-time inference setups.
-
Contributions to open-source ML/AI projects, publications, or technical blogging/speaking are a plus.
