- Collaborate cross-functionally with product and engineering teams to integrate AI models into scalable products, transforming complex AI insights into actionable marketing strategies.
- Drive the research and integration of emerging AI technologies, conducting deep statistical analysis to identify the patterns and metrics that fuel successful campaigns.
- Mentor and guide junior data scientists and engineers, fostering a culture of innovation, technical excellence, and evangelizing our AI platform vision across the organization.
The ideal candidate will bring:
- 8+ years of hands-on experience building and deploying sophisticated machine learning solutions, with a deep focus on agentic systems, NLP, or deep learning.
- 3+ years of experience leading complex, end-to-end data science projects from proof-of-concept through to production deployment.
- A proven ability to architect scalable data pipelines, MLOps processes, and ML platforms that support high-volume model training and inference.
- Expert-level proficiency in the Python ecosystem (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Hugging Face) and advanced SQL for data warehousing and ETL processes.
- Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure), distributed computing (Spark or Dask), and a deep understanding of database architectures.
- Exceptional communication skills, with the talent to distill complex technical concepts and data into clear, actionable business strategies for non-technical stakeholders.
