Job Description

Own end-to-end ML/AI projects: problem framing, data pipelines, modeling, offline/online evals, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.

  • Build and productionize agentic workflows (tool-using/multi-step agents with retrieval, planning, and human-in-the-loop), including safety/guardrails and reliability.

  • Train classical ML models (tree ensembles, linear models, anomaly detectors, time-series forecasting) and deep learning models when appropriate.

  • Operationalize models with CI/CD, feature stores, reproducible training, and model registries

  • Monitor and improve live systems: data & concept drift detection, performance regression, bias/fairness, cost/latency; drive remediation playbooks.

  • Partner cross-functionally with product, data, and platform teams; write clear design docs

  • Work as an Individual contributor with minimal directions

  • Should be able to interact with stakeholders, understand the problem statement, and come up with solutions

Skills and Requirements

  • Minimum 12+ years of total experience in Software Development, preferably with a Data Analyst/Data Scientist background

  • Demonstrated production agent build (at least one end-to-end agentic framework delivered to users).

  • Strong with classical ML: feature engineering, cross-validation, calibration, regularization, class imbalance, interpretability (SHAP/LIME), time-series (forecasting, seasonality, drift).

  • Solid deep learning foundations (CNN/RNN/Transformers), and practical fine-tuning experience (e.g., LoRA/QLoRA, instruction tuning, RAG).

  • Proven MLOps: model registry/experiment tracking (MLflow or equivalent), model serving (FastAPI/TF-Serving/TorchServe/TGI/vLLM), observability.

  • Fluency in Python and the ML stack (NumPy/Pandas, scikit-learn, XGBoost/LightGBM, PyTorch/TensorFlow).

  • Excellent communication; can drive projects independently as an Individual Contributor.

    -

Must have

  • Experience with agent frameworks (LangGraph/LangChain Agents, AutoGen, Google ADK) and tool use (function calling, tool routing, planners).

  • Retrieval/RAG design: chunking strategies, embedding models, vector stores (FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate), hybrid search, evals.

  • Must have implemented projects involving some classical ML problems(classification, clustering, regression, anomaly detection, time series etc.,)

  • Some working experience with Cloud services, CI/CD and Microservices - Experience leading/mentoring junior data scientists or ML engineers is a plus

  • Experience fine tuning SLMs is a huge plus
