Deep expertise in Machine Learning and/or Deep Learning techniques
Experience working with large-scale, complex datasets in collaborative environments
Preferred
Experience within healthcare, pharmaceutical, or other highly regulated industries
Hands-on experience with claims data or similarly complex, regulated datasets
Strong understanding of data privacy, compliance, and governance requirements
Experience with MLOps practices, including pipeline automation, deployment, and monitoring
What We’re Looking For
A self-driven, senior-level contributor who can lead model development efforts and influence technical direction
Someone who thrives in a team environment and contributes to shared goals without needing sole ownership
A candidate who balances technical excellence with business impact, delivering solutions that are both scalable and meaningful
Additional Notes
This is a Level II role, requiring demonstrated depth in both technical execution and real-world application of AI/ML solutions
