• End‑to‑End AI/ML Development: Lead the design, development, validation, and optimization of AI/ML models, proofs of concept (PoCs), and Minimum Viable Products (MVPs). This includes data exploration, feature engineering, model selection, training, and robust evaluation.
• Solution Deployment & Integration: Drive the deployment, integration, and scaling of AI/ML solutions into production environments, both in the cloud and at the edge, ensuring seamless operation and alignment with strategic organizational objectives.
• Stakeholder Partnership: Act as a key technical partner to cross‑functional project teams, guiding them through the potentials and limitations of AI/ML to effectively address specific business challenges.
• Technical Excellence & Best Practices: Contribute to the development and maintenance of comprehensive technical documentation, model reporting, and knowledge sharing initiatives. Champion MLOps principles and foster best practices for AI/ML development, deployment, and monitoring.
• Continuous Learning: Stay updated of the latest advancements, research, and emerging technologies in AI/ML, bringing innovative approaches and tools to our projects.

Required Qualifications

• Programming Expertise: Strong proficiency in Python, including libraries for data manipulation (e.g., Pandas, NumPy) and machine learning (e.g., scikit‑learn).
• ML Frameworks & MLOps: Hands‑on experience with major ML frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, or Keras. Solid understanding of MLOps principles for model lifecycle management, versioning, testing, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD).
• Deployment Experience: Proven ability to deploy and manage AI/ML models in cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Azure) and/or on edge devices for real‑time applications.
• Core AI/ML & Statistics: Deep understanding of a wide range of AI/ML algorithms and statistical techniques, including supervised learning (regression, classification), unsupervised learning (clustering, dimensionality reduction), time‑series analysis, and advanced statistical modelling.
• Data Handling: Experience with data querying languages (e.g., SQL) and working with various data sources, including structured and unstructured data.
• Data Visualization: Proficiency with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Matplotlib) to effectively communicate model performance, insights, and validation results to both technical and non‑technical audiences.

Desired Qualifications

• Advanced AI/ML Techniques: Experience with deep learning architectures, Natural Language Processing (NLP), or Reinforcement Learning; Generative AI Technologies: practical experience integrating Vision Models, Large Language Models (LLMs), Small Language Models (SLMs), Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG) systems in AI solutions; Experience with Agentic frameworks and model context protocols.
• Domain Knowledge: Previous experience in the Power Transmission business and good understanding of our products. Additional Languages: Proficiency in other programming languages such as R, C#, or C++.

Soft Skills & Attributes

• Collaborative Team Player: Exceptional ability to work effectively and collaboratively within diverse, cross‑functional teams and with external partners.
• Communication & Presentation: Excellent written and verbal English communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders and prepare clear, concise documentation.
