  • Cost & Ownership: Prepare Bills of Materials, infrastructure sizing, and total cost of ownership models for both client and internal deployments.
  • Team Leadership: Mentor, coach, and manage a team of data scientists and engineers to deliver production-ready solutions.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: Clearly communicate technical solutions, align deliverables with business priorities, and drive client adoption.

What We Expect

  • Experience: years in Data Science/AI, with at least 3–4 years leading ML/GenAI solution delivery.

  • Technical Skills:

  • Strong expertise in Python, ML/AI frameworks, and LLM-based architectures.

  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).

  • Familiarity with vector databases, RAG pipelines, and scalable data architectures.

  • Business & Analytics: Solid foundation in BI tools, hypothesis testing, actionable insights, and making business-driven recommendations.

  • Delivery Track Record: Proven history of taking solutions from design deployment adoption.
  • Cost Estimation: Experience in infrastructure requirement analysis and ownership cost modeling.
  • Education: Degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Computer Science, AI/ML, Data Science, or an equivalent quantitative discipline.
  • Leadership & Soft Skills: Ambitious yet pragmatic leader with strong problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management abilities.
