OverviewAre you a technically strong and business-oriented
Machine Learning / AI Engineer with a passion for building and scaling intelligent solutions? Our team is looking for a hands-on engineer with deep experience in AI/ML engineering and AI/ML engineering operations who can partner with clients to design, build, and operationalize AI-powered solutions at scale.
This role will focus on translating advanced analytics, machine learning, and generative AI use cases into secure, scalable, and production-ready solutions across on-prem and cloud environments (ideally on Azure but also GCP and AWS).
What you will do- Partner with clients to understand business problems and identify opportunities to apply AI and advanced analytics solutions.
- Translate business and analytical requirements into end-to-end ML/AI solution design,
- Execute ML/AI engineering tasks including exploratory data analysis, data preparation, model development (e.g., forecasting, classification, recommendation, anomaly detection) using tech stack such as Python and common ML frameworks (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Azure ML Studio, Databricks MLFlow).
- Develop and optimize AI and GenAI solutions using state-of-the-art tools and platform (AI Foundry, GCP Vertex AI, AWS Sagemaker and Bedrock).
- Operationalize AI/ML pipelines using AI/ML Ops best practices, including model deployment versioning, CI/CD, automated testing, and monitoring.
- Implement model monitoring, performance tuning, drift detection, and retraining strategies in production environments.
- Collaborate with data engineers to ensure reliable, scalable data pipelines that support model training and inference.
- Apply responsible AI principles, including explainability, bias detection, model governance, and compliance with security and privacy standards.
- Support client workshops, technical discussions, and stakeholder presentations related to AI strategy, solution design, and implementation.
What you bring to the role- University degree in computer science, engineering, data science, mathematics, or a related discipline.
- 3+ years of professional experience in machine learning, data science, AI engineering, or a related field, with demonstrated experience delivering production ML solutions.
- Strong proficiency in Python for data analysis, machine learning, and model development.
- Hands-on experience with machine learning frameworks/libraries and platform tools (e.g., scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Azure ML Studio, Databricks MLFlow).
- Solid understanding of ML algorithms, statistics, model evaluation techniques, and feature engineering.
- Experience designing and implementing end-to-end ML pipelines, including data preprocessing, model training, validation, deployment, and monitoring.
- Practical experience with ML Ops practices, including CI/CD, model versioning, experiment tracking, and automated retraining.
- Experience deploying ML models to cloud environments (Azure, AWS, or GCP) with an understanding of cloud-native architecture and security principles.
- Familiarity with big data or distributed processing frameworks (e.g., Spark) is an asset.
- Experience with generative AI, large language models (LLMs), prompt engineering, or retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) is essential, experience with fine-tuning foundational models is an asset.
- Strong consulting and communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Proven ability to collaborate within cross-functional and multi-disciplinary teams to solve complex business problems.
Certifications (Preferred)- Cloud AI / ML certifications (e.g., Azure AI Engineer Associate or better, AWS Machine Learning Specialty or better, Google Professional ML Engineer or better, Databricks ML Engineer Associate or better, Databricks Generative AI Engineer).
