Provide technical direction for distributed training, large‑scale model optimization, and system architecture.

Collaborate with Research, Product, and Infrastructure teams to define objectives, milestones, and KPIs.

Implement MLOps best practices: experiment tracking, CI / CD, model governance, observability.

Manage compute resources, cloud budgets, and enforce Responsible AI + data security standards.

Communicate technical progress, blockers, and results clearly to leadership and stakeholders.

5+ years of experience in Machine Learning, NLP, and Deep Learning (Transformers, LLMs).

2+ years leading teams delivering ML / LLM systems in production.

Strong proficiency in Python and frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, DeepSpeed.

Experience with distributed training, GPU / TPU optimization, and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).

Knowledge of MLOps tools (MLflow, Kubeflow, Vertex AI, etc.).

Excellent leadership, communication, and cross‑functional collaboration skills.

Bachelor's / Master’s in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (PhD preferred).

Experience training or fine‑tuning foundation models.

Knowledge of Responsible AI practices, bias mitigation, and model interpretability.
