  • Partner with engineering, marketing technology, and business stakeholders, and explain results to non-technical audiences
  • Mentor junior data scientists and set modeling standards

  • Strong Databricks experience (Spark/PySpark, Delta Lake, MLflow; Feature Store or Unity Catalog a plus)
  • Solid grounding in machine learning, deep learning (PyTorch or TensorFlow), and reinforcement learning (e.g., bandits, Q-learning/DQN, PPO)
  • Proficiency in Python and SQL
  • Experience taking models from prototype to production with MLOps practices (CI/CD, monitoring, retraining)
  • Experience with experimentation, A/B testing, and measuring incrementality
  • Bachelor's or Master's in a quantitative field (Master's or PhD preferred)

Preferred (Not Required)

    • Life sciences or pharma commercial analytics (omnichannel, HCP/patient engagement, field force, patient journey data)
    • Familiarity with CRM, CDP, or marketing automation platforms
    • Causal inference and uplift modeling
    • Experience with regulated or compliance-constrained data (e.g., HIPAA)
    • Databricks certifications

  • Drive High-Impact Business Transformation: Lead strategic engagements that go beyond traditional analytics, delivering enterprise-wide AI adoption, cloud-native data modernization, and measurable business outcomes.

  • Continuous Learning & AI Upskilling: Stay ahead of the rapidly evolving AI landscape through continuous learning, hands-on exposure to emerging technologies, and opportunities to build expertise in Generative AI, agentic AI, and next-generation data platforms. Grow alongside a team that invests in developing future-ready skills and encourages innovation.
