3. Data Pipeline & Feature Engineering

  • Work with data engineers to define and build scalable data pipelines.

  • Clean, process, and structure large datasets (creator data, content metadata, campaign performance).

  • Design meaningful features that improve model performance.

4. Product Integration

  • Collaborate closely with product managers and engineers to integrate models into the platform.

  • Ensure models are production-ready, reliable, and scalable.

  • Contribute to API design, model serving, and inference workflows.

5. Monitoring & Continuous Improvement
