Job Responsibility

  • Defining and driving the data science and AI roadmap, aligning model development priorities with business objectives and product strategy
  • Leading end-to-end delivery of ML and AI solutions — from problem framing, data discovery, and model design through validation, deployment, and performance monitoring
  • Translating ambiguous business problems into well-scoped data science workstreams, identifying quick wins alongside longer-term strategic initiatives
  • Designing and implementing NLP pipelines for use cases such as entity extraction, semantic mapping, classification, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
  • Building and maintaining forecasting and predictive models to support operational and strategic decision-making
  • Conducting current-state assessments of data architecture, sources, and quality
  • defining future-state data models and governance standards
  • Partnering closely with Product, Engineering, and business stakeholders to clarify requirements and define measurable success criteria
  • Mentoring data analysts and junior data scientists, and driving a culture of continuous learning and responsible AI

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent professional experience)
  • 5+ years of experience in data science, data analytics, or a related discipline, including production ML/AI deployments
  • Strong proficiency in Python for data science workflows, including pandas, scikit-learn, and NLP libraries (e.g., spaCy, Hugging Face Transformers)
  • Proven experience designing and delivering NLP pipelines and/or forecasting models in a business context
  • Solid command of SQL for data querying, transformation, and analysis
  • Experience with BI and reporting tools, particularly Power BI (including data modeling and DAX)
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate analytical findings clearly to non-technical stakeholders
  • Experience working in regulated industries (healthcare, finance, or similar) with understanding of compliance and data governance requirements (e.g., HIPAA, GDPR)

Nice to have

  • 7+ years of data science or analytics experience, including a team lead or principal contributor role
  • Experience with Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and prompt engineering
  • Familiarity with cloud-based ML platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure) and MLOps practices
  • Working knowledge of process optimization frameworks such as Lean Six Sigma
  • Exposure to clinical data standards or health data interoperability
  • PL-300 Power BI Data Analyst certification is a plus
