• Collaborate with product and software teams to integrate AI into live systems
• Build and manage scalable data pipelines and databases
• Lead model performance optimization and real-time inference
• Research and prototype novel AI-driven digital indicators

Requirements

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or Physics
• 3+ years' experience managing a small team of data scientists
• 5+ years' experience in applied data science or ML engineering
• Strong proficiency in Python and ML libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch)
• Hands-on experience with cloud services (e.g., AWS, Azure) and backend integration
• Familiarity with time-series models (e.g., LSTM, regression, ensemble methods)
• Solid foundation in data preprocessing and statistical modeling
• Comfortable working with structured and unstructured datasets
• Experience with database systems (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB)
• Bonus: Experience working with sensor data or real-time systems
