Key Responsibilities
RESPONSIBILITIES
Advance our AI capabilities by designing, developing, and deploying Gen AI solutions—including LLM fine-tuning, prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, and integration of Gen AI into existing measurement and science workflows.
Lead end-to-end development and scaling of data science solutions, from research and experimentation through productionization, ensuring solutions are robust, reproducible, and maintainable.
Partner with product managers and cross-functional stakeholders to shape the vision, roadmap, and prioritization of science products and capabilities in the personalization and loyalty space.
Contribute to the vision and early development of a holistic science layer—working to connect and consolidate scattered science capabilities into a unified, scalable framework.
Apply and extend causal ML and econometric methods (e.g., CATE, DiD, matching, panel methods) to support measurement, experimentation, and personalization at scale.
Build, maintain, and improve production ML and experimentation pipelines using sound MLOps and software engineering practices, including CI/CD, version control, testing, and documentation.
Research and evaluate emerging AI/ML technologies and methodologies, identifying opportunities to bring state-of-the-art approaches into production.
Serve as a technical leader and subject matter expert on the team, providing guidance and informal mentorship to peers and evolving into a formal mentor as junior talent joins the team.
Communicate complex technical findings and methodologies clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences, including leadership and product stakeholders
