Data Scientist 1 TSSCI wpoly

The Data Scientist will develop machine learning data mining statistical and graph-based algorithms to analyze and make sense of datasets; prototype or consider several algorithms and decide upon final model based on suitable performance metrics; build models or develop experiments to generate data when training or example datasets are unavailable; generate reports and visualizations that summarize datasets and provide data-driven insights to customers; partner with subject matter experts to translate manual data analysis into automated analytics; implement prototype algorithms within production frameworks for integration into analyst workflows.

Other duties may include:

• Oversee one or more software development teams and ensure the work is completedin accordance withthe constraints of the software development process being used on anyproject.
• Produce data visualizations that provide insight into dataset structure and meaning.
• Work with subject matters experts (SMEs) toidentifyimportant informationin raw data and develop scripts that extract this information from a variety of data formats (e.g. SQL tables structured metadata network logs).
• Incorporate SME input into feature vectors suitable for analytic development and testing.
• Develop Al and machine learning models to address complex problems.
• Develop andoptimizeLarge Language Models (LLM) for various NLP tasks and information retrieval.
• Develop and implement statistical machine learning and heuristic techniques to createdescriptive predictive and prescriptive analytics.
• Develop statistical tests to make data-driven recommendations and decisions.
• Develop experiments to collect data or models to simulate data whenrequireddata areunavailable.
• Develop feature vectors for input into machine learning algorithms.
• Identify the mostappropriate algorithmfor a given dataset and tune input and model parameters.
• Evaluate andvalidatethe performance of analytics using standard techniques and metrics ( validation ROC curves confusion matrices).
• Oversee the development of individual analytic efforts and guideteamin analyticdevelopment process.
