Role
Who you are
- If you are a visionary data scientist with expertise in Recommender Systems, Language Understanding, and Semantic Search, this is an exciting opportunity to shape how businesses identify and act on the most valuable market signals
- MS + 5 years or PhD + 3 years in a quantitative field (Computer Science, AI, ML, EE, Physics, Applied Math, etc.)
- Deep expertise in Recommender Systems, Scoring Models, and Signal Ranking Algorithms
- Strong experience in Language Understanding and Information Retrieval using encoder-only or decoder-only models
- Hands-on experience with ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, Transformers)
- Familiarity with LLM fine-tuning techniques and model optimization (distillation, reinforcement learning with human feedback, model compression)
- Experience developing scalable ML pipelines using cloud tools like Dataproc, EMR, Airflow, FAISS, Pinecone, or equivalent
- Strong ability to communicate complex ML concepts to cross-functional teams and business stakeholders

- Build scalable ML pipelines to process and score signals in real time, ensuring high performance and accuracy in production
- Collaborate with ML engineers to deploy models using cloud infrastructures and distributed computing frameworks (Spark, Ray, etc.)
- Continuously evaluate and refine models based on user feedback, A/B testing, and real-world performance metrics
- Stay ahead of the latest research in recommender systems, GenAI, and AI-driven scoring models, ensuring our solutions remain cutting-edge and industry-leading
Our take
It was only a few years ago when B2B sales teams relied on warm introductions and contact books. Now, cloud-based CRM, automation and Big Data are critical tools for any selling process. ZoomInfo’s B2B contact base has played a massive part in that journey.
The company primarily helps salespeople find potential customers. Crucially, ZoomInfo then leverages technology to help make that approach as successful as possible. Think contact details of the most likely budget holder at that company, signal for when and how to approach and crucial updates on the company’s fortunes.
ZoomInfo has grown significantly over the previous few years and is now shifting its approach to pursue more inorganic growth through mergers and acquisitions, acquiring several companies in 2022, including the job recruitment website Comparably.
The risk for ZoomInfo is that these moves represent expansion beyond its traditional strengths in top-of-funnel customer acquisition. The company will need to ensure that it maximizes synergies in order to win in these markets. The company has expanded operations in India and is set to see further expansion, as indicated by its appearance on the Fortune Future 50 list of robust and growing companies in 2023.
