## Description

iQuasar is seeking a highly motivated Data Scientist/Machine Learning Engineer to join our dynamic AI team. In this role, you will leverage machine learning algorithms and software engineering skills to contribute to diverse AI-based projects related to resource planning for ship maintenance, marine transportation, and climate/environmental informatics. Work will involve developing machine learning models that deliver predictive insights and analytics for robust, web-based full-stack AI applications spanning both government (DoD, DoT, NOAA, etc.) and commercial domains.
Responsibilities:
Write code to extract and pre-process training data sets, handling disparate data formats and APIs.
Research, select, and develop appropriate ML/DL algorithms and models to tackle AI problems across disparate data domains (Navy, Transportation, Environmental Sciences, Healthcare, Public Safety, etc.).
Work with the TRABUS Data Science team to deliver scalable AI solutions involving LLMs, RAG, prompt engineering, computer vision, and NLP tools.
Work alongside other AI/ML and DevOps engineers to establish automated AI workflows that continuously provide inferences/predictions.
Develop validation and test routines to measure and evaluate the quality of predictions.
