• Cross-functional Collaboration: Work with engineering, operations, and business teams to identify high-impact AI use cases.
• Technical Documentation: Maintain high-quality documentation of models, processes, and performance metrics.
• Continuous Improvement: Monitor model performance post-deployment and propose enhancements to ensure sustained value.
• Team Enablement: Share knowledge, mentor peers when appropriate, and contribute to the growth of the internal AI competency.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders to align project goals and expectations.

• Proficient in Python, with experience in tools like Google Colab, Jupyter, or similar.
• Experience with common machine learning libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
• Strong understanding of data preprocessing, model evaluation, and lifecycle management.
• Ability to work independently and take initiative on projects.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills to effectively collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams.
