Senior Data Scientist - GenAI & Cloud ML Specialist

Data Scientist with GCP/AWS/Azure

Long Description

We are seeking a seasoned Senior Data Scientist with overall 6 yrs and at least 5 years of hands-on experience in developing GenAI/machine learning models and deploying them in a cloud environment, preferably on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The ideal candidate will design microservice-based solutions, containerize deployments (e.g., GKE), and drive end-to-end SDLC practices. Experience in the pharma domain is a strong advantage.

Notice Period -Imemdiate Joiner Only
Mandatory skills - GEN AI/Python Programming Language/(GCP/AWS/Azure any cloud technology)
Location - Noida/Pune/Bengaluru/Chennai/Mumbai/Hyderabad

Experience Require - Minimum 8 years of experience

Key Responsibilities
Lead end-to-end development of GenAI/ML models: problem framing, data preparation, model selection, training, evaluation, and iteration.
Architect and implement microservice-based AI solutions and deploy them in containerized environments (preferably GKE); define APIs and data contracts.
Incorporate and operationalize defined ML pipelines with MLOps practices: model versioning, feature stores, experiment tracking, CI/CD for ML, monitoring, and rollback strategies.
Leverage GCP offerings (Vertex AI, BigQuery, Dataflow, Cloud Storage, Pub/Sub, Cloud Run, GKE, etc.) to design scalable AI solutions and efficient data workflows.
Deploy, monitor, and maintain models in production; implement observability (logs, metrics, tracing), cost optimization, and performance tuning.
Ensure cloud security, data governance, and compliance in line with regulatory requirements; manage IAM roles, data access controls, and data lineage.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (data engineers, software engineers, product, regulatory/compliance, analytics) to translate business needs into robust ML solutions.
Uphold SDLC standards: requirements gathering, design, development, testing, deployment, maintenance, and documentation; promote reusable patterns and best practices.
Mentor and guide junior scientists; contribute to code reviews, standards, and knowledge sharing.
Stay current with GenAI advancements and evaluate new tools/approaches; produce reproducible experiments and artifacts.

Required Qualifications
Overall 8 yrs and Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience developing GenAI/ML models and deploying them in a cloud environment.
Proficiency with Google Cloud Platfor and its AI/ML offerings e.g.- Vertex AI, BigQuery, Dataflow, Cloud Storage, Pub/Sub, Cloud Run, GKE

Must have experience working with any agentic framework
Knowledge of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) concepts and processes
Strong software engineering skills: Python (primary), experience with ML frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn), and API development (REST/GraphQL).
Experience designing and deploying microservices architectures and containerized solutions (Docker, Kubernetes; preference for GKE).
Solid experience in MLOps: model versioning, experiments, automated training, feature stores, model registries, monitoring, and governance.
Data processing and analytics expertise: SQL, data pipelines, ETL/ELT concepts, data quality, and data visualization support.
Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills; ability to work with cross-disciplinary teams.
Understanding of cloud security concepts, IAM, and basic principles of data privacy and compliance.
Demonstrated ability to translate business problems into scalable ML solutions and to communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
