Data Scientist - Applied AI/ML Senior Associate

• Design, develop, and deploy predictive ML, advanced analytics, GenAI/LLM, and agentic AI solutions for complex business problems in shared services.
• Build and integrate agentic workflows (tool use, RAG, routing/planning, structured outputs, evals/guardrails) into end-to-end business processes to deliver context-aware insights and automation.
• Prototype AI-enabled approaches quickly, then harden successful prototypes into reusable, production-ready services with measurable outcomes.
• Own end-to-end model delivery: dataset manipulation/feature engineering, training, validation, evaluation, deployment, and iteration.
• Design, deploy, and operate production ML pipelines and services (batch/real-time), including logging/metrics, monitoring, retraining/refresh strategies, and reliability/cost/latency improvements.
• Partner with product, engineering, and risk/controls stakeholders to define requirements, align on success metrics, and drive adoption.
• Apply responsible AI, governance, and compliance-aligned practices throughout the model and agent lifecycle; share best practices and contribute reusable templates/libraries., * Reusable agent frameworks and patterns (routing, tool-use, workflow orchestration, safety controls) that multiple teams can adopt.
• LLM-powered capabilities embedded in business processes (summarization, classification, decision support, workflow automation) with measurable quality and risk controls.
• Deployed models supporting regulatory and change management (e.g., obligation/change classification and tagging, QA/routing, impact triage, and audit-ready decision support) integrated into workflows with monitoring and governance.
• Evaluation and monitoring foundations (golden sets, automated regression tests, drift/quality dashboards) that standardize how AI is operated at scale.

• Bachelor's degree in data science, computer science, statistics, mathematics, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience).
• 5+ years experience or demonstrated ability to set up and deploy AI/ML solutions end-to-end (prototype * production or production-like), shown through prior roles, internships, research, or substantial projects.
• Strong Python proficiency for data analysis, modeling, and production-grade implementation; solid dataset manipulation and feature engineering skills.
• Hands-on experience building, evaluating, and deploying predictive models and analytics solutions (e.g., classification/regression, NLP) using common ML/deep learning libraries (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn).
• Required agentic AI experience: built and deployed LLM-enabled agentic workflow (e.g., RAG + tool/function calling, routing/planning, structured outputs) with an evaluation approach (test set, regression tests, human review, or similar).
• Experience designing, deploying, and operating production ML/LLM pipelines or services, including basic MLOps practices (versioning, CI/CD for ML, monitoring/alerting, incident hygiene).
• Working knowledge of modern deployment environments: cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP) and/or containerized/distributed compute (e.g., Kubernetes).
• Strong communication and stakeholder partnership skills; ability to translate business problems into measurable technical outcomes and explain results to diverse audiences.

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• Advanced education & thought leadership: Master's or PhD in a quantitative field; publications, patents, or meaningful open-source contributions in ML/GenAI.
• Advanced agentic/GenAI maturity: scaled agentic systems beyond a single use case; strong LLM evaluation discipline (golden sets, automated regression, quality dashboards) and guardrail patterns.
• Scale/performance & data ecosystems: GPU/inference optimization (e.g., Triton, profiling), big data processing and cloud data services; exposure to RL or other advanced ML methods.
• Specialized ML domains & regulated environments: search/ranking, recommenders, graph ML/knowledge graphs; experience in financial services or other regulated industries and comfort operating within governance expectations-especially for regulatory/change management workflows.
