Translate business questions and operational pain points into well-defined analytical or modeling problems. Ensure solutions are grounded in business context, regulatory requirements, and operational realities.
• Perform data acquisition, cleansing, transformation, and validation across structured and unstructured datasets. Conduct exploratory analysis to surface trends, anomalies, risks, and improvement opportunities relevant to GTM operations.
• Design, build, test, and tune machine learning models using established techniques (e.g., classification, regression, clustering, natural language processing) to address specific business use cases.
• Build Generative AI and Agentic AI‑based solutions, including prompt engineering and workflow automation.
• Deliver reproducible analyses and clearly communicate findings, recommendations, and limitations to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Create business-facing visualizations and dashboards that support day-to-day decision-making.
• Prepare and maintain documentation that supports knowledge transfer, auditability, and operational continuity.
• Apply appropriate evaluation methodologies and document assumptions, limitations, and model performance.
• Write clean, well-structured Python code that meets quality and security standards, working within shared repositories (Git).
• Support model deployment and operationalization, including basic MLOps practices such as monitoring inputs, outputs, and performance over time.
• Collaborate with D&SS, TIS, business partners, and domain experts to ensure solutions meet operational needs.
• Identify opportunities to enhance or extend existing business solutions within the assigned domain.
• Stay current on practical advances in data science, ML, and AI that are relevant to the business context.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related field.
• 6-8 years of combined experience applying data, analytics, and AI/ML to business or operational problems, with demonstrated ability to translate business needs into practical, data-driven solutions in the energy industry.
• Strong proficiency in Python and common data science libraries.
• Solid understanding of applied machine learning concepts and applied statistics.
• Demonstrated ability to communicate insights and recommendations to business stakeholders clearly and concisely.
• Experience working collaboratively across functions, not just within a technical team.
• Ability to work independently within a defined scope and effectively collaborate across teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Generative AI, large language models (LLMs), or agent‑based workflows or agent-based workflows in applied business settings.
• SQL proficiency and experience working with operational or analytical databases.
• Experience building business-facing dashboards or reports (e.g., Power BI).
• Familiarity with cloud-based platforms (Azure preferred; AWS or GCP acceptable).
• Experience working in engineering, operations, regulated, or energy sector environments.
• Exposure to documentation-heavy or audit-sensitive work contexts.

Level & Scope Expectations

• Works independently on routine and moderately complex tasks within a defined business domain.
• Demonstrates depth in understanding the operational context behind the data.
• Produces solutions that are reliable, documented, supportable, and business-owned.
• Escalates complex, ambiguous, or cross-functional issues appropriately.
• Prioritizes consistent delivery and operational value over exploratory research or technology experimentation.
