Coding proficiency required in at least one data science language (Python R Scala etc.) as well as expertise with modern ML packages and libraries (Spark SciKitLearn Pandas PyTorch TidyVerse Tensorflow Keras Shiny and / or AutoML tools).

Model Development Deployment and Optimization : Build evaluate and optimize machine learning models through hyperparameter tuning. Implement models into production continuously monitor their performance and ensure they remain explainable and reliable to minimize model decay. Ability to develop custom Machine Learning (ML). Highly proficient in the full AI workflow such as (1) data extraction cleansing feature engineering exploratory data analysis model selection / creation hyper-parameter tuning model interpretation model retraining and (2) Uses concepts like mlflow to log metrics. Well-versed in Interactive Development Environments (IDEs) such as Databricks Workspaces or Visual Studio Code. Proficiency in algorithm categories such as Supervised Learning Unsupervised Learning Optimization Algorithms Deep Learning AI-Computer Vision Natural Language Processing Deep Reinforcement Learning Search Algorithms and AI- Knowledge Graphs.

Visualization and Collaboration : Create visualizations and reports for stakeholders while working closely with cross-functional teams to align efforts with business objectives. Can utilize advanced coding methods to produce visualizations (e.g. ggplot etc.).

Generative AI : Develop and implement generative AI models focusing on creating new content or augmenting existing data. Generative Models-Understanding of GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) VAEs (Variational Autoencoders) and Transformers. Fine-Tuning-Techniques for adapting pre-trained models to specific tasks using smaller task-specific datasets. Agentics-Understanding of agentic architecture concepts and optimization of solutions. Prompt Engineering-Crafting effective prompts to guide generative models in producing desired outputs. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-Combining generative models with retrieval systems to enhance performance and relevance. Text Generation-Proficiency in using models like GPT-3 / 4 for generating human-like text. Image Generation-Familiarity with tools like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion for creating images from text descriptions.

What youll need :

Translate business problems into actionable insights through a comprehensive workflow involving coding data extraction cleansing feature engineering exploratory data analysis model creation and tuning visualization and deployment leveraging statistical analysis machine learning and big data technologies to drive informed decision-making and innovation.

What youll bring :

An experienced professional with in-depth knowledge applying organizational practices to resolve moderately difficult problems. Works with independent judgement on expansive projects with minimal supervision implementing policy changes to improve functions. Actions impact efficiency costs schedules and client relationships. Interacts primarily within the department and with General Managers and above across various teams.

TCP Career Step Differentiator : Performs moderately complex data science work and contributes to less complex models.

Education / Experience :

Bachelors degree (BS / BA) required from an accredited University in a Quantitative field of study such as Data Science Math Statistics Engineering or Physics. 2 years of related experience. Certification is required in some areas.

Supervisor : No
