Position description
As a Senior Data Scientist, you will collaborate with the Data Science and Machine Learning team and will create data science, machine learning, and AI solutions to better address the needs of our constituents (students, alumni, faculty, researchers, staff, and community at large). You will have the chance to guide and continuously improve the ways in which we engage, educate, and empower people around the world, combining the best of human touch and technology scale. You will experiment with everything from the latest AI algorithms and techniques to blended and immersive environments, multi-modal and varied-form content, and the most innovative research and teaching methodologies. You will be highly influential in advancing our LLM applications and guide teams towards impactful and ethical AI. We seek an expert who is eager to grow and disseminate GenAI model expertise across the organization.
Role description
In this role, you will translate the needs of our cross-functional stakeholders into user-facing applications that leverage NLP techniques and large language models (LLMs). As a Sr. Data Scientist on our GenAI applications team, you will work on products like conversational search interfaces, chatbots, text summarizers, recommender engines, and more based on the needs of the constituents. You will partner with Product Managers, Machine Learning Engineers, Cloud Platform Engineers, and cross-functional partners to develop production-grade algorithms. Your innovations will drive value creation through personalized engagement, expanded reach, and experimental ways of learning that will continue the client leadership in education, business, and societal impact. Architect the overall framework and infrastructure for GenAI products like search interfaces, bots, summarizers, etc. Develop and implement techniques to optimize model performance to meet specific product goals Collaborate closely with product management and engineering leads to align on technical roadmap. Guide engineering teams to effectively leverage LLM capabilities in product implementations Establish protocols and systems for building fair, accountable and transparent LLM-based applications.
Lead efforts to proactively assess and mitigate risks due to model biases or failures Implement robust feedback pipelines, monitoring and corrections to ensure model safety Design and oversee curation of high-quality datasets tailored for LLM training for each product. Build data science pipelines from feature generation, data visualization and models evaluation; design the solution, build initial code and provide documentation with ways of working to maximize time to value and re-usability.
Communicate clearly and effectively to technical and non-technical audiences, verbally and visually, to create understanding, engagement, and buy-in. Contribute novel research and analyses to leading academic conferences and journals. Identify trends and opportunities to drive innovation, both in what we do and how we do it; evaluate new data science, machine learning, and AI technologies and tools that can boost team performance, innovation and business value. Proactively analyze latest developments in large language models to deeply understand model capabilities, limitations, and best practices. Develop techniques to continually improve language understanding and model training Embody the values and passions that characterize Client, with empathy to engage with colleagues from a wide range of backgrounds. Mentor and develop junior data scientists in state-of-the-art GenAI methods Set technical vision and lead initiatives to accelerate product impact through cutting-edge LLM innovations
