• Transform data science prototypes and applying appropriate ML algorithms and tools
• Work closely with the Data Scientists, build tools to enhance their productivity and to ship and maintain ML models
• Analyze huge datasets to perform EDA and come out with patterns and features to support the problem statement.
• Manage the infrastructure and data pipelines needed to bring code to production
• Demonstrate end-to-end understanding of applications (including, but not limited to, the machine learning algorithms) being created
• Partner with product managers and architects to analyse business problems, clarify requirements and define the scope of the systems needed
• Use cloud platforms such as AWS or GCP to handle larger scale data
