Senior Data Scientist

• Design and develop Machine Learning solutions using statistical analysis, data mining, and classical/modern ML techniques.
• Build, train, validate, and iterate predictive models (classification, regression, ranking, forecasting, anomaly detection, clustering) against clear business outcomes.
• Perform feature engineering, exploratory analysis, and experiment design to improve model quality and decision usefulness.
• Collaborate with domain experts to understand business requirements and formulate data-driven solutions.
• Define offline and online metrics, holdout strategies, and monitoring signals for model performance and drift.
• Deliver models to enterprise-grade quality: rigorous, validated, reproducible, and ready for mission-critical use.
• Support packaging and deployment of models into production with engineering partners; maintain clear handoffs.
• Partner with AI Engineering and AI Quality when classical models or predictive signals feed GenAI / agentic workflows.
• Explain complex technical concepts and predictive analytics clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Lead a DS technical area (e.g. forecasting, anomaly detection, experimentation standards).
• Set/improve shared modeling, metrics, and experimentation practices across squads.
• Coach data scientists and raise consistent quality bars.
• Partner with engineering/platform on reusable feature, evaluation, and productionization patterns.

• 8+ years of Data Science experience.
• B.Sc. in Machine Learning, Statistics, Data Science, Physics, or related field — or equivalent education and industry experience.
• Proficiency in Python and data science libraries (Pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, and PyTorch or TensorFlow)
• Knowledge of statistical analysis, hypothesis testing, experimental design, data mining, and machine learning techniques.
• Experience designing performance metrics and evaluation approaches for predictive ML systems.
• SQL and modern data platforms; data exploration and visualization.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms such as OpenShift (OCP) and AWS.
• Clear communication; ability to work in a multi-tasked, dynamic environment.
• Track record of multi-team influence - standards, metrics, or practices others adopted.
• Experience coaching scientists, not only personal delivery excellence.
• Ability to prioritize a science agenda for an area across initiatives.

• Past experience: Improved measurement practices across teams and coached other scientists.
• Delivery evidence: Shared metrics or experimentation standards adopted by multiple teams.
• Shared expectation: Leads a technical area and improves shared practices.

• Python backend APIs (FastAPI, Flask, or similar).
• Exposure to Generative AI / LLMs as a collaborator (not a primary hiring filter).
• MLOps practices (MLflow, Kubeflow, experiment tracking, registries, pipelines).
• Time-series forecasting, causal inference, or anomaly detection in enterprise systems data.
• Agile methodology and Atlassian products (Jira, Confluence).
• M.Sc. in a related field
