				Overview:

Helps translate high level business problems into actionable and tangible Data Science projects.
Analyzes, designs, develops, implements and maintains data science constructs, algorithms,programs, Statistical / Machine Learning Models, decision support system, Artificial/Augmented
Intelligence systems using structured, unstructured, diverse "big data" sources of from
measurement systems, IoT, human observations to provide real life business problem solutions
and product features/enhancements. Work is accomplished without considerable direction.
Exerts significant latitude in determining objectives of assignment to create tangible impact in
driving success factors and great experience for our customers and product users.

Highly skilled and motivated Data Scientist (LLM Specialist) to join our AI/ML team. This role is ideal for an individual passionate about Large Language Models (LLMs), workflow automation, and customer-centric AI solutions. You will be responsible for building robust ML pipelines, designing scalable workflows, interfacing with customers, and independently driving research and innovation in the evolving agentic AI space.

Responsibilities:

  Experience: experience in ML, NLP, or AI-related roles, with a focus on LLMs and generative AI.

  Programming Skills: Proficiency in Python and experience with ML frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch

  LLM Expertise: Hands-on experience in training, fine-tuning, and deploying LLMs

(e.g., OpenAI's GPT, Meta's LLaMA, Mistral, or other transformer-based architectures).

  Foundational Model Knowledge: Strong understanding of open-weight LLM architectures, including training methodologies, fine-tuning techniques, hyperparameter optimization, and model distillation.

  Data Pipeline Development: Strong understanding of data engineering concepts, feature engineering, and workflow automation using Airflow or Kubeflow.

  Cloud & MLOps: Experience deploying ML models in cloud environments like AWS, GCP (Google Vertex AI), or Azure using Docker and Kubernetes.

  Model Serving & Optimization: Proficiency in model quantization, pruning, distillation, and knowledge distillation to improve deployment efficiency and scalability.

  Research & Problem-Solving: Ability to conduct independent research, explore novel solutions, and implement state-of-the-art ML techniques.

  Strong Communication Skills: Ability to translate technical concepts into actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders.

  Version Control & Collaboration: Proficiency in Git, CI/CD pipelines, and working in cross-functional teams.

Nice-to-Have:

  Experience with Reinforcement Learning (RLHF) for LLMs.

  Knowledge of vector databases and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) architectures.

  Familiarity with multi-modal AI models (vision-language models, speech-to-text, etc.).

  Understanding of agentic AI frameworks (e.g., AutoGPT, LangChain, LlamaIndex).

  Hands-on experience with Google Vertex AI Pipelines, AutoML, and model monitoring.

We are seeking LLM enthusiast with a knack for research, customer interaction, and building impactful AI solutions
