• Ability to work independently in a fully remote environment.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop entity resolution algorithms for identifying duplicates across datasets.
• Build matching frameworks for individuals, organizations, products, locations, and other entities.
• Apply deterministic, probabilistic, and ML-based matching techniques.
• Develop similarity algorithms using names, addresses, identifiers, attributes, and behavioral data.
• Apply fuzzy matching, string distance metrics, token-based comparisons, and semantic similarity methods.
• Design blocking, indexing, and candidate-generation to reduce complexity.
• Develop entity clustering and record consolidation for unified profiles.
• Apply graph-based resolution to identify relationships.
• Tune thresholds, scoring, and rules to balance precision and recall.
• Handle missing values, inconsistent formats, and conflicting identifiers.
• Evaluate performance using precision, recall, F1-score, and false-match rates.
• Conduct error analysis and investigate matches/misses.
• Improve scalability for large-scale data processing.
• Collaborate with data engineers, scientists, and stakeholders to integrate solutions.
• Establish automated testing, validation, monitoring, and QA procedures.
