  • Apply strong mathematical principles (linear algebra, calculus, probability, statistics) to model development and optimization.
  • Develop scalable ML solutions using distributed computing frameworks (e.g., MapReduce, streaming technologies).
  • Leverage domain expertise in Oil & Gas or Manufacturing to design context-aware predictive and prescriptive models
  • Collaborate with data engineers and subject matter experts to identify, validate, and interpret new data elements
  • Translate operational and industrial requirements into analytical and ML-driven solutions
  • Lead end-to-end data science initiatives from problem definition through deployment and monitoring
  • Develop rapid prototypes using Python, R, or JavaScript, with exposure to Java or Scala as a plus
  • Design and implement MLOps practices including CI/CD pipelines for ML models, automated testing, model versioning, containerisation, deployment automation, monitoring, and performance drift management.
  • Ensure models are production-ready, robust, explainable, and aligned with operational constraints
  • Communicate technical insights clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
