Job Description

Kforce has a client that is seeking a Data Scientist II onsite in Raleigh, NC or remote EST. Summary: We are seeking a hands-on Data Scientist to develop and evaluate AI solutions for legal content workflows. The role focuses on large language models, natural language processing, and reliable data pipelines. The successful candidate will collaborate with engineers, product stakeholders, and legal subject matter experts to translate business requirements and editorial feedback into measurable improvements. This role requires strong Python skills, sound experimental judgment, and the ability to independently investigate issues and deliver working solutions. Duties:
  • Develop and improve LLM-based workflows for information extraction, classification, legal summarization, and content generation
  • Design and evaluate prompts, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and multi-step agent workflows
  • Build reliable data-preparation pipelines, including parsing, transformation, validation, caching, and recovery from interrupted processing
  • Create representative evaluation datasets and conduct controlled experiments, error analysis, and regression testing
  • Work with subject matter experts to assess factual accuracy, completeness, source support, and consistency, and translate feedback into generalizable improvements
  • Diagnose problems across data, retrieval, model behavior, and application logic
  • Balance output quality, latency, and cost when comparing technical approaches
  • Maintain tested, version-controlled code and clear documentation to support reproducibility and team handoffs

Requirements:

  • To be considered for this position, candidates must have experience in a similar role, or they must possess significant knowledge, experience, and abilities to successfully perform the responsibilities listed
  • Relevant education and/or training will be considered a plus
  • Experience with traditional machine learning is a strong plus

The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs. This range may be modified in the future.

We offer comprehensive benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, HSA, FSA, 401(k), and life, disability & ADD insurance to eligible employees. Salaried personnel receive paid time off. Hourly employees are not eligible for paid time off unless required by law. Hourly employees on a Service Contract Act project are eligible for paid sick leave.

Note: Pay is not considered compensation until it is earned, vested and determinable. The amount and availability of any compensation remains in Kforce's sole discretion unless and until paid and may be modified in its discretion consistent with the law.

This job is not eligible for bonuses, incentives or commissions.
