Job Responsibility:

  • Build and lead a new applied machine learning team, including hiring, coaching, career development, and setting a high-performance culture with clear delivery accountability
  • Establish the applied ML charter, operating model, and engagement pattern with data product teams to ensure ML work is prioritized by value and delivered as part of product roadmaps
  • Own model development end-to-end, including problem framing, feature strategy, model selection, training, evaluation, and iteration based on business and technical metrics
  • Partner with data product managers and domain stakeholders to define use cases, success measures, and adoption plans, ensuring solutions are usable and drive outcomes
  • Work closely with the MLOps team to productionize models with strong engineering rigor, including CI/CD, model registries, reproducible training, automated testing, monitoring, and retraining triggers
  • Collaborate with the data platform team to ensure ML solutions leverage trusted, standardized data assets and patterns (e.g., curated datasets, lineage, access controls, scalable pipelines)
  • Define and enforce best practices for applied ML delivery, including experimentation discipline, documentation, model governance, and responsible AI practices appropriate for the business context
  • Ensure models and workflows meet security, privacy, and compliance requirements, including operating effectively in SOX and GxP environments where applicable
  • Drive reuse and scale by developing shared components (feature patterns, evaluation templates, reference architectures) and reducing one-off model implementations
  • Provide senior technical leadership and pragmatic guidance to stakeholders on when ML is appropriate versus rules-based or analytical alternatives
  • Establish and report on applied ML performance and value metrics (e.g., model quality, drift, business lift, adoption, time-to-deploy), and drive continuous improvement

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, data science, or a related field
  • advanced degree preferred
  • 10+ years of experience in applied machine learning and/or data science, with 4+ years in people leadership roles
