Data Scientist (Gen AI)

• Model Development & Fine-tuning: Run end-to-end experiments on transformer-based architectures (LLMs, Whisper, diffusion, LoRA, RLHF/SFT, multimodal models).
• Domain-Specific Applications:

• Audio: Lip-sync, emotional delivery (shouting, whispering, crying), regional language support.
• Video: Scene/character consistency, quality benchmarks comparable to Veo3/Sora.
• Text: Extend LLMs to handle regional languages and domain-specific adaptation.

Requirements

• Experience: 4–10 years in applied Data Science/ML with a strong focus on generative AI.
• Core Fundamentals: Solid grasp of transformer architectures, LLMs, training dynamics, and optimization techniques.
• Modality Depth: Expertise in at least one modality (text, audio, or video), with demonstrable end-to-end project experience.
• Hands-On Skills: Strong coding and debugging ability in Python, with deep learning frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow).
• Deployment Knowledge: Experience with ML pipelines (FastAPI or similar) for inference and deployment.
• Evaluation Metrics: Proven ability to design/implement automated evaluation methods for generative outputs.
• Adaptability: Ability to experiment quickly with new tools, libraries, and models in a dynamic environment.
