Senior Data Scientist

Position Overview: The client is looking for a Data Scientist, LLM Generative AI, to join our dynamic and fast-paced environment and work with cross-functional teams to lead the analysis and synthesis of data generated by our members and from third parties into actionable insights via large language models (LLMs).

As a Large Language Model/Generative AI Data Scientist, you will join our new global AI and Data Intelligence team. This team aims to build state-of-the-art data and AI technology with strong research fundamentals for our career management platform. You will utilize your expertise in the data sciences to investigate and work with relevant data sources and build AI products that support the career management process. This is an excellent opportunity to work on various AI-powered projects with a growing team.

The data scientist will be primarily responsible for implementing the client's LLM strategy and optimizing the outputs from the LLM, given the data inputs. This includes conceptual tasks to structure the data and inputs and hands-on implementation tasks. The Data Scientist ensures the data sources are clean and accurate. The Data Scientist will make sense of the data, including basic reporting and drawing conclusions and correlations. The Data Scientist will work closely with the Technology team to ensure tight integration with the client's infrastructure and offers and with the Marketing team to help identify key learnings and insights about and for our members.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in data analysis and statistical modelling, with a passion for uncovering insights from complex data sets.
