Description

Our Client, an IT Services and Consultant company, is looking for a Senior AI/ML Engineer for their Atlanta, GA/Remote location.
 
Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning models tailored to complex business problems.
  • Conduct exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, and statistical modelling on large-scale datasets.
  • Evaluate model performance using appropriate metrics and validation techniques; iterate to improve accuracy and robustness.
  • Build and maintain end-to-end ML pipelines from data ingestion to model serving and monitoring in production.
  • Collaborate with data engineers, software engineers, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into ML solutions.
  • Research, prototype, and integrate state-of-the-art algorithms and frameworks to solve novel problems.
  • Document models, experiments, and design decisions to ensure reproducibility and knowledge sharing.
  • Stay current with advances in ML research and assess applicability to the organization’s use cases.
 
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's or master’s degree in computer science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field (Ph.D. is a plus).
  • 5–9 years of hands-on experience in machine learning and data science roles.
  • Strong mathematical foundation — linear algebra, calculus, probability, and statistics.
  • Demonstrated ability to take ML projects from research to production.
  • Experience working with structured and unstructured data at scale.
  • Required Technical Expertise
  • Supervised Learning
  • Linear regression and logistic regression,
  • Decision trees, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting (XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost),
  • Support Vector Machines (SVMs) and kernel methods,
