• Research emerging techniques by understanding academic papers and new technical tools, and by conducting labs, prototypes, and explorations
• Monitor and contribute to the optimization of production models

What You Need to Get the Job Done

• 1+ years of professional experience as a data scientist, typically coding in Python with relevant libraries
• Demonstrated ability to propose and implement ML algorithms, shape data into useful input features, and choose and optimize appropriate model performance metrics
• Proficiency with NLP, text processing, LLMs / generative models
• Mathematical thinking foundation and orientation
• Skill working with data sources of various types using tools such as SQL, pandas, Spark
• Understanding of core machine learning and deep learning techniques
• Ability to work well independently and with colleagues
• Skill collaborating using cloud-based tooling, git, notebook systems, and ML workflows

A strong contender will also demonstrate abilities to:

• Understand each problem, available data, and potential methods
• Monitor, learn, and apply emerging techniques
• Write high quality deployable code
• Wisely select approaches and evaluation methods
• Have productive interactions that lift the team and stakeholders

Beyond the technical skills, we’re looking for individuals who are:

• Clear communicators (verbal and written)
• Analytical and perceptive of patterns
• Strong in understanding underlying math and algorithms
• Creative in finding relevant and novel approaches
• Productive in a dynamic setting

If you love to learn, you’ll be in good company. You’ll likely have an advanced degree in a quantitative field, or a related Bachelor’s and additional experience working with data.
