Responsibilities
- Design, prototype, and evaluate applied AI solutions across natural language, vision, recommendation, and structured data domains
- Translate ambiguous business problems into well-scoped ML formulations with clear success metrics and evaluation strategies
- Stay current with the latest research in deep learning, large language models, and adjacent areas, and assess applicability to internal use cases
- Implement rigorous experimentation workflows including baselines, ablations, and statistically sound evaluation methodology
- Build production-quality training and inference pipelines using modern ML frameworks and orchestration tools
- Collaborate with ML platform engineers to ensure efficient use of compute, storage, and accelerator resources
- Optimize models for accuracy, latency, throughput, and cost based on production requirements
- Develop tooling for dataset construction, labeling, validation, and ongoing monitoring of data quality
- Partner with product, design, and domain experts to ensure model behavior aligns with user needs and policy requirements
- Implement safety, fairness, and reliability evaluations and incorporate findings into model selection decisions
- Document research findings, design decisions, and operational characteristics clearly for both technical and non-technical audiences
- Mentor engineers on applied ML methodology, evaluation rigor, and responsible deployment
- Contribute to internal knowledge sharing, reading groups, and prototype-to-production playbooks
- Influence the broader AI roadmap based on research insight, capability gaps, and emerging opportunities
Skills
