🧠 What You’ll Do

As part of a dynamic, cross-functional team, you’ll be responsible for designing, building, and deploying production-ready machine learning models and robust data pipelines in Microsoft Azure. You’ll collaborate with both technical peers and business stakeholders to develop innovative, data-driven solutions with real-world healthcare applications.

Your main responsibilities will include:

• Develop, train, evaluate, and deploy predictive data models using Python and ML libraries such as Scikit-learn and PyTorch.
• Design, build, and maintain scalable data processing pipelines and data flows using Azure Data Factory (ADF).
• Utilize Azure ML Studio for model experimentation, training, and deployment.
• Work extensively with large datasets, including Parquet files, stored in Azure Data Lake.
• Perform feature engineering and selection to optimize model performance.
• Define and apply appropriate validation metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score) to assess model performance and ensure business alignment.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to understand business needs and translate them into technical requirements, even when dealing with ambiguous or non-detailed user stories.
• Effectively communicate technical concepts and model outcomes to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Contribute to the design and architecture of cloud-based data science applications.
• Manage code and collaborate with the team using Git, and perform tasks using Bash and the command line.
• Develop and deploy serverless components using Azure Function Apps.

✅ What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking someone with strong technical expertise, business acumen, and a proactive mindset who thrives in collaborative environments.

Must-haves:

• 5+ years of experience in data science or ML engineering.
• Solid experience with the Azure cloud ecosystem: ADF, ML Studio, Data Lake.
• Deep Python knowledge and experience with Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, and PyTorch.
• Strong SQL skills and familiarity with data formats like Parquet.
• Proficient with Git, Bash, and working in terminal environments.
• Ability to work independently with minimal direction on complex tasks.
• Excellent communication skills in English – both written and spoken.

Nice-to-haves:

• Experience training or fine-tuning generative models (e.g., LLMs).
• Advanced knowledge of serverless architectures and Azure Function Apps.
