Senior/lead Data Scientist Gen Ai & Classical Machine Learning Bengaluru

Senior Data Scientist/Data Science Manager - Generative AI & ML

We are looking for a Senior Data Scientist with hands-on experience in Generative AI (GenAI) to drive innovation through cutting-edge AI/ML solutions. This role involves designing and implementing GenAI models and pipelines that solve business problems and enhance productivity. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver solutions using large language models (LLMs), transformers, and other generative techniques.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and fine-tune Generative AI models using LLMs (e.g., GPT, LLaMA, Claude, PaLM) for tasks like summarization, content generation, question answering, semantic search, etc.

Build end-to-end GenAI-powered solutions including prompt engineering, model training/fine-tuning, evaluation, and deployment.

Use frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, and vector databases (e.g., FAISS, Pinecone, Weaviate) to build RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines.

Collaborate with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to identify AI prospects and prototype solutions.

Conduct experiments, evaluate model performance, and optimize for accuracy, latency, and relevance.

Contribute to the development of GenAI best practices and reusable assets within the organization.

Stay up to date with the latest research and developments in the GenAI and LLM space.

Required Skills and Experience

5+ years of experience in Data Science or AI roles, with 2+ years in GenAI or LLMs.

Solid Python skills and experience with transformers, Hugging Face, PyTorch, or TensorFlow.

Deep understanding of NLP, language modeling, and generative techniques.

Experience with prompt engineering, fine-tuning or few-shot learning.

Hands-on experience with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar GenAI orchestration frameworks.

Working knowledge of vector stores, embedding models, and retrieval techniques.

Experience with model deployment in cloud or hybrid environments (e.g., Azure, AWS, GCP).

Familiarity with MLOps tools and best practices is a plus.

Preferred Qualifications

Masters or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, or a related field.

Experience with OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta AI, or Google Cloud GenAI APIs.

Background in chatbot development, co-pilot solutions, or enterprise GenAI applications.

Publications or contributions to open-source projects in the GenAI space are a plus. .
