What is the project about?

Our client is seeking to add a new team member with a Data background. They are a diverse team of NLP and machine learning experts, taxonomy experts and scientific content experts in biology and chemistry domains. The client mainly develop best-in-class enrichment pipelines for their business and partners.

You will be responsible for building, testing, and maintaining our NLP solutions using (gen)AI technology. You will work throughout the whole life cycle of data science projects: design, implementation, production and beyond. You will deliver efficient and production-ready Python code. You will collaborate with the technology team to deploy and productionize our data science pipelines.

You will work in a team of 16 data scientists, located in Amsterdam and India. The team is mostly developing automation pipelines. These are automation pipelines are used to extra data from text articles and to feed the data to the 3 databases. The team is also exploring GenAI, with tasks such as embedding and vector database searching. They use LLMs mainly for entity- and relationships extraction.

Responsibilities

Data collection, data analysis, model development, defining quality metrics, quality assessment of models and regular presentations to stakeholders.
Creating production-ready Python packages for each component of data science pipelines (such as pre-processing and model inference) and their deployment together with the technology team
Integration of data science components and end-to-end quality assessment.
Keeping our data science pipelines robust against model drift and ensuring continuous output quality; development of needed tools and strategies for maintenance such as automatic model re-training.
Establishing the reporting process of the performance of the pipeline, and automatic re-training strategy for the existing pipelines
Leading and managing projects with a team of data scientists and independently executing the entire small-scale projects
Consistently communicating team goals and milestone achievements to internal stakeholders
