  • Work closely with Data Analysis, Data Engineering, Data Warehousing, product, and business stakeholders to design scalable data and model workflows.
  • Set technical standards for clean code, reproducible experiments, model tracking, documentation, observability, and production readiness.
  • Mentor data scientists, support their growth, and help the team make strong technical and product decisions.

What You’ll Bring

  • 5+ years of experience in applied ML/AI, including hands-on work with production-oriented solutions.
  • Strong Python and SQL skills, with experience working with complex real-world data and building maintainable workflows.
  • Experience with the ML lifecycle, including feature engineering, model training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
  • Practical exposure to LLM-based applications, such as RAG, embeddings, prompt engineering, vector search, orchestration, or evaluation.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to explain technical trade-offs and guide both people and projects.

Nice to Have

  • Master’s degree or PhD in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Data Science, Machine Learning, or a related field.
  • Experience with tools such as GCP, Airflow, Docker, Kubernetes, MLflow, Langfuse, FastAPI, BentoML, LlamaIndex, LangChain, Haystack, Milvus, or similar.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
