What you’ll do
 

  • Build, optimize, and maintain end-to-end ML pipelines and experimentation frameworks. 
  • Fine-tune, deploy, and monitor foundation models (LLMs, transformers) and generative architectures. 
  • Develop prompt engineering workflows and retrieval-augmented generation systems and innovative integration with MCP and A2A. 
  • Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and research teams to integrate AI into customer-facing products. 
  • Lead experimental design, data analysis, and performance benchmarking. 
  • Author technical publications, present findings at conferences, and mentor junior scientists and engineers 

What will help you succeed

  • Bachelor’s in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related quantitative field; Master’s in AI/ML or Computational Neuroscience; PhD highly desirable.
  • 5+ years’ experience in applied data science, with a track record of deploying mathematical models at scale.
  • Proficiency with Python (NumPy, pandas, PyTorch/TensorFlow) and strong coding skills in Java or C++.
  • Hands-on experience fine-tuning and deploying LLMs and generative AI architectures.
  • Solid understanding of prompt engineering, RAG, and ML operations.
  • Excellent communication skills, with experience presenting to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
