- Optimize models for accuracy, interpretability, and scalability in production environments.
- Build reproducible, well-documented data science workflows and collaborate closely with engineering teams on deployment.
- Mentor and guide junior data scientists, setting best practices in experimentation, evaluation, and MLOps.
- Communicate findings and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders through compelling visualizations and narratives.

- 8–12 years of professional experience in Data Science, Machine Learning, or Applied AI.
- Strong expertise in ML algorithms (XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost, ensemble methods).
- Solid experience in feature engineering, data preprocessing, and statistical modeling.
- Proficiency in clustering (KMeans, DBSCAN, etc.) and unsupervised learning techniques.
- Hands-on programming skills in Python (pandas, scikit-learn, NumPy, matplotlib, seaborn).
- Familiarity with MLOps tools, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and version control.
