About the role

The ideal candidate should be a practical, hands-on ML practitioner who can bridge the gap between Data Science and Engineering.

They should be able to explore data, build models, evaluate performance, write clean code, and work with MLOps / Engineering teams to move models into production. They should not be limited to notebook-based experimentation, but should also be comfortable thinking about production readiness, monitoring, model usage, and business impact.

What would you do?

Data Science & Model Development

• Understand business problems and translate them into ML-ready problem statements.
• Perform exploratory data analysis, data quality checks, feature discovery, and target definition.
• Build, validate, and improve ML models across supervised, unsupervised, and predictive use cases, including classification, regression, forecasting, clustering, anomaly detection, ranking, and recommendation.
• Design and engineer meaningful features from transactional and product data to improve model performance and business relevance.
• Evaluate models using appropriate statistical, ML, and business metrics.
• Interpret model outputs and explain drivers using techniques such as feature importance, SHAP, error analysis, and segment-level performance review.

ML Engineering & Productization

• Build reusable ML pipelines for data processing, feature engineering, training, validation, batch scoring, deployment, monitoring, and retraining.
• Convert data science prototypes into production-ready workflows and services.
• Design config-driven pipelines that support multiple tenants, customers, or business units.
• Build reusable components that can scale across different use cases, tenants, and environments.
• Build CI/CD pipelines for ML code, configurations, pipeline definitions, and model artifacts.
• Collaborate with Engineering teams to integrate model outputs into product and business workflows.

Model Lifecycle & Release Management

• Implement model lifecycle practices including experiment tracking, model registry, versioning, lineage, and artifact management.
• Manage model metadata such as datasets, features, parameters, metrics, versions, and deployment status.
• Support model promotion across development, staging, and production with controlled rollout, rollback, and retirement processes.
• Ensure reproducibility of training, scoring, packaging, and deployment workflows.

GenAI / LLMOps — Nice to have

· Support GenAI use cases involving LLMs, embeddings, and vector databases. · Help design document processing, chunking, retrieval, prompt engineering, and response evaluation workflows. · Work with managed LLM platforms, open-source models, and LLMOps tools where applicable.

Who you are?

• 4–8 years of experience in Data Science, ML Engineering, Applied ML, or related roles.
• Strong hands-on experience with Python & SQL.
• Strong understanding of machine learning algorithms, model evaluation, feature engineering, and validation.
• Experience converting notebooks into reusable, maintainable, production-quality code.
• Experience with orchestration tools such as Airflow, Kubeflow, Mage, or similar.
• Experience with model lifecycle tools such as MLflow, SageMaker, Azure ML, Vertex AI, or similar.
• Strong understanding of batch inference, model deployment, production ML workflows, and monitoring.
• Experience with Docker, Git, environment management, and CI/CD automation using tools such as GitHub Actions/workflows.
• Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Familiarity with production ML monitoring concepts such as model/data drift, data quality validation, prediction monitoring, and common failure modes in deployed ML systems.
• Familiarity with NLP fundamentals such as text preprocessing, tokenization, lemmatization, stemming, text representation, and semantic embeddings for search, similarity, classification, and retrieval use cases.
• Ability to analyze model performance across segments, tenants, time periods, and business outcomes.
