Job Description

Role Overview

We are looking for a Data Scientist with expertise in classical machine learning and predictive analytics to build custom models for equipment manufacturing and industrial environments. You will analyze sensor, time-series, and operational data to solve critical challenges, including predictive maintenance, equipment failure prediction, quality forecasting, and process optimization.

Key Responsibilities
Model Development: Design, train, validate, and deploy end-to-end classical ML and time-series models using Python.
Feature Engineering & Analytics: Clean and transform structured, sensor, and time-series data from SCADA, PLC, MES, and ERP systems into actionable features.
Problem Solving: Evaluate and optimize algorithms based on business objectives, metrics, and interpretability requirements.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with manufacturing, process engineering, QA, and maintenance teams to translate operational bottlenecks into ML solutions.
Deployment & Monitoring: Deploy production-ready models into operational workflows and continuously monitor performance and reliability.

Technical Stack & Qualifications

Mandatory Technical Skills
Classical ML: Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forest, XGBoost, LightGBM, Cat Boost, SVM, KNN,



Clustering (K-Means, DBSCAN), Dimensionality Reduction (PCA), Anomaly Detection, and Ensemble Methods.
Time Series Analysis: ARIMA, SARIMA, Prophet, and time-series forecasting techniques.
Programming & Libraries: Python, SQL, pandas, Num Py, scikit-learn, Sci Py, statsmodels, XGBoost, LightGBM, Cat Boost, Matplotlib, Seaborn.
Statistics & Data Prep: Hypothesis testing, regression analysis, experimental design, feature engineering, and robust ETL/preprocessing pipelines.

Domain Experience & Qualifications
Proven track record building and deploying ML models from scratch (AutoML experience alone is not sufficient).
Hands-on experience handling structured industrial/sensor datasets.
Robust communication and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred & Nice-to-Have
Manufacturing Domain: Exposure to Automotive, Heavy Engineering, Process Manufacturing, IIoT, OEE, Root Cause Analysis, or Downtime Reduction.
Advanced Analytics: Predictive Maintenance, Remaining Practical Life (RUL) modeling, Survival Analysis, or Digital Twins.
Deployment & MLOps: Docker, Cloud (AWS / Azure / GCP), Model Monitoring, Edge Analytics, or Streaming Data.
