Role Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior AI/ML Engineer to design, develop, and deploy AI/ML solutions that deliver measurable business outcomes. The ideal candidate will have strong experience in machine learning, cloud-based AI platforms, MLOps, experimentation frameworks, and model evaluation. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver incremental value through agile development cycles while ensuring scalability, explainability, compliance, and cost efficiency.

Key Responsibilities

- Design and implement AI/ML solutions using statistical modeling, machine learning, optimization, simulation, and Generative AI techniques where appropriate.

- Select and apply the most suitable modeling approaches based on business objectives and problem statements.

- Define and monitor evaluation metrics aligned with business KPIs, operational processes, and customer outcomes.

- Validate model performance using historical data, synthetic data generation, offline experimentation, and controlled real-world testing.

- Demonstrate measurable improvements in business decisions, operational efficiency, and process outcomes through data-driven solutions.

- Own end-to-end delivery within agile 45-day versioned release cycles, ensuring each release provides incremental and measurable business value.

- Build, deploy, and maintain scalable AI/ML platforms and analytics products in AWS cloud environments.

- Implement and manage MLOps best practices, including CI/CD pipelines, model monitoring, retraining, versioning, and governance.

- Balance model accuracy, explainability, compliance requirements, and infrastructure costs when designing AI solutions.





- Optimize data processing, model training, inference workloads, and cloud resource utilization for performance and cost efficiency.

- Collaborate with Product Managers, Data Engineers, Architects, and Business Stakeholders to translate business needs into scalable AI solutions.

Required Skills & Experience

- 6+ years of experience in Data Science, Machine Learning, or AI Engineering roles.

- Strong expertise in Machine Learning, Statistical Modeling, Predictive Analytics, Optimization, and Simulation techniques.
