• Enhance and refactor our existing forecasting models in R while leading the development of new, state-of-the-art services in Python.
• Develop and own the MLOps pipelines for our forecasting models, including automated training, deployment, A/B testing, and monitoring for performance at scale.
• Collaborate with Backend Engineers and Data Scientists to ensure our forecasting engine is seamlessly and efficiently integrated into our product.

This is who we're looking for

• You have 3–6 years of professional experience building and deploying machine learning models in a high-volume production environment, with a strong focus on time series forecasting.
• Proven expertise in both Python and R
  for production-level data science. You are an expert in at least one, with professional, hands-on experience in the other.
• Python:
  pandas, scikit-learn, LightGBM/XGBoost, etc.
• R:
  dplyr, , forecast/fable, tidymodels, etc.
• Demonstrated experience working with
  large-scale data
  and building high-performance, production-grade ML systems.
• Deep theoretical and practical understanding of time series analysis, from classical statistical models (ARIMA, ETS) to modern machine learning techniques.
• Hands-on experience with software engineering best practices and tools, including Git, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Strong experience with SQL for complex data extraction and analysis.
• You are a pragmatic problem-solver, driven by the challenge of optimizing a complex system and delivering measurable business impact.

Nice to Have

• Experience with probabilistic forecasting and inventory optimization techniques.
• Exposure to cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure) and MLOps tools (e.g., MLflow, Kubeflow).
• Experience with large-scale data processing tools (e.g., Spark, Dask).
• Prior experience in a SaaS, e-commerce, or supply chain tech company.
