Senior Data Scientist, Brightflag

• 5+ Years developing and deploying machine learning models and solutions, ideally in a software product focused environment
• Strong programming skills in Python
• Strong skills in NLP, foundational representations like TFIDF matrices and topic modelling as well familiarity with Word2vec, Transformers etc... Familiarity with Spacy a plus
• Some familiarity with generative ai text based applications and frameworks, in particular applying generative ai models to product application development. Knowledge of frameworks such as langchain or llamaindex may be useful but not essential. Similarly familiarity with patterns like RAG would be beneficial but not essential
• Application of classification techniques to multiclass and multi label classification
• Familiarity with base Python stack such as Numpy,SciPy, Sklearn and experience developing Neural Network models in Keras/Tensorflow/PyTorch
• Application of regression techniques to predict continuous outcomes. Some familiarity with Time Series forecasting is also a plus
• Clustering and segmentation analysis is also beneficial, familiarity with core algorithms like KMeans, DbScan etc.
• Comfortable working with ambiguity in a fast-paced product environment
• A passion for building product-focused solutions that solve customer problems
• A track record of shipping product by working collaboratively with product and software engineering teams
• Ability to work autonomously
