AI/ML

About the job:

Step into a high-impact leadership role where you’ll shape intelligent products and guide teams in building practical, scalable AI solutions. You’ll work at the intersection of machine learning, NLP, and data-driven experimentation—turning complex business problems into models that deliver measurable outcomes. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys mentoring engineers, setting technical direction, and collaborating closely with product, data, and engineering stakeholders. You’ll champion best practices across the ML lifecycle—from data preparation and feature engineering to model deployment and continuous improvement—while fostering a culture of curiosity, ownership, and learning. If you’re excited to lead with both technical depth and a collaborative mindset, this is a chance to build meaningful AI capabilities and help teams deliver smarter experiences at scale.

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities:

Technical Leadership & Delivery

• Lead end-to-end AI/ML initiatives, translating business goals into model strategies, milestones, and measurable success metrics.
• Provide technical direction on model selection, training approaches, evaluation frameworks, and deployment patterns for production-grade ML systems.
• Mentor and guide ML engineers and data scientists through design reviews, code reviews, and model performance deep-dives.
• Drive engineering excellence by defining standards for reproducibility, experimentation tracking, documentation, and model governance.

Model Development (AI/ML, NLP, Data Learning)

• Build and optimize machine learning models using structured and unstructured data, ensuring robustness, generalization, and interpretability where needed.
• Design and implement NLP pipelines for tasks such as text classification, entity extraction, semantic search, summarization, or intent detection based on product needs.
• Partner with data stakeholders to improve data learning workflows: data quality checks, feature engineering, labeling strategies, and feedback loops.
• Establish model evaluation practices including offline metrics, error analysis, bias checks, and A/B testing where applicable.

Collaboration & Stakeholder Management

• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to align model capabilities with user experience, latency, scalability, and reliability requirements.
• Communicate technical trade-offs and model outcomes clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Identify risks early (data drift, model decay, dependency gaps) and drive mitigation plans to ensure stable delivery.

Minimum Qualifications:

• 5–9 years of overall experience with strong hands-on ownership of AI/ML solution delivery in real-world environments.
• Strong expertise in AI/ML including model development, training, evaluation, and iterative improvement.
• Solid experience in NLP and applied learning from data (data learning workflows, feature engineering, and experimentation).
• Ability to lead technical discussions, mentor team members, and drive execution across multiple workstreams.
• Education: BTECH, MTECH, MCA, MSC (or equivalent).

Additional responsibilities

Preferred Qualifications:

• Proven experience leading production ML deployments, including monitoring, retraining strategies, and performance optimization over time.
• Strong understanding of modern NLP approaches (transformer-based modeling, embeddings, prompt-based workflows) and how to evaluate them reliably.
• Experience designing scalable ML architectures and collaborating closely with platform/engineering teams to operationalize models.
• Demonstrated ability to define best practices for experimentation, versioning, and model governance across teams.
• Track record of delivering measurable business impact through ML initiatives and influencing stakeholders with data-backed recommendations.
