Data Scientist

We are looking for a seasoned Data Scientist to work with our existing team to use Generative AI technology in supporting Federal use cases. The ideal candidate should have excellent communication and customer service skills, a passion for data and problem solving, and hands-on experience in building and deploying generative models.

Requirements

• Design and train advanced machine learning models, especially generative models like GANs, VAEs, or transformer-based models.
• Work closely with ML Engineers and Software Developers to transition models from a research and development stage to production.
• Stay updated with the latest research and trends in AI to implement cutting-edge solutions.
• Evaluate the performance of foundational models (e.g., GPT, LLaMA, Claude) on domain-specific tasks and fine-tune them using supervised, reinforcement, or instruction tuning methods.
• Design and optimize prompts, few-shot examples, and system instructions to improve LLM behavior in constrained environments (e.g., RAG pipelines, multi-agent workflows, decision support systems).
• Identify, clean, label, and synthesize high-quality datasets for model training, fine-tuning, or retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
• Design experiments to evaluate generative model behavior (e.g., hallucination rates, factuality, coherence, safety), define appropriate benchmarks, and use metrics like BLEU, ROUGE, perplexity, and human evaluations.
• Ability to leverage and integrate various data management tools at scale – cloud experience preferred.
• Support an Agile software development lifecycle.
