*Telecommuting role to be performed anywhere in the U.S.

Analyze and process large-scale structured and unstructured datasets using SQL tools (PostgreSQL, PL/SQL, Spark SQL), API integrations (including Google Suite APIs), and automated preprocessing workflows to prepare data for advanced statistical and machine learning model development.

What You Will Do:

  • Design, implement, and optimize predictive and statistical models using Gradient Boosting frameworks (XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost) and Bayesian modeling (PyMC), applying feature selection and high-dimensional modeling techniques to enterprise marketing use cases.
  • Develop and manage automated data transformation, cleansing, validation, and preprocessing workflows within MLOps frameworks (GitLab, Kubeflow, MLflow), ensuring data integrity, reproducibility, and CI/CD integration for ML systems.
  • Define and apply statistical evaluation metrics, loss functions, performance KPIs, cross-validation techniques, and drift detection mechanisms to compare, test, and optimize AI/ML model accuracy, robustness, and reliability.
  • Design and develop analytical dashboards in Tableau and interactive prototypes in Streamlit to visualize model outputs, KPIs, and experimental results for stakeholders.
  • Communicate AI/ML methodologies, model behavior, system limitations, and analytical findings to executive, technical, and business stakeholders, translating quantitative results into actionable recommendations.
  • Translate ambiguous business and analytical challenges into formal technical specifications and AI product roadmaps, conduct structured problem decomposition, and manage execution of AI feature backlogs using JIRA to coordinate iterative codesign and testing sessions with cross-functional data engineering, analytics, and business stakeholders.
  • Analyze production data trends, system telemetry, performance drift indicators, and outcome metrics to identify relationships and external factors affecting AI system outputs and business impact.
  • Lead strategic AI solution planning and prioritization within agile development frameworks, evaluating technical complexity, computational constraints, and measurable business impact to support marketing enterprise decision-making.
  • Apply statistical theory, machine learning algorithms, NLP and Transformer-based architectures (NLTK, gensim, spaCy), and reinforcement learning frameworks (Gymnasium, Ray) to design and oversee the lifecycle of enterprise AI/ML systems from requirements through deployment and post-release monitoring.
  • Review scientific literature and emerging AI research to evaluate and incorporate advanced modeling methodologies into enterprise AI system development.
  • Formulate, document, and recommend data-driven AI solutions aligned with operational and revenue objectives, supported by quantitative evidence and system performance metrics.
  • Oversee model training, cross-validation, recalibration, drift mitigation, and continuous improvement processes, including model registry management and production monitoring, to ensure predictive accuracy and long-term system stability.
  • Develop production-grade AI/ML applications in Python, build APIs for model serving, manage model registries, implement containerized deployments using Docker or Podman, and deploy systems on Kubernetes and OpenShift environments.
