Senior AI Data Scientist

  • New York, New York, United States
  • Full-Time
  • Remote

Job Description:

We're looking for a Senior AI Data Scientist to lead the design, evaluation, and evolution of the Client's agentic systems. This role sits at the intersection of LLMs, financial data, and decision systems. You'll own how models reason over data, how agents coordinate and make decisions, and how we rigorously measure quality, correctness, and risk in production AI workflows.

Requirements

  • 6+ years experience in data science, applied ML, or AI-focused software roles
  • 3+ years building production AI / ML systems, with ownership beyond experimentation
  • Deep hands-on experience with LLMs, agentic patterns, and tool-calling systems
  • Strong Python skills and comfort working close to production systems and APIs
  • Experience with RAG pipelines, embeddings, and vector databases
  • Strong intuition for model behavior, trade-offs, and failure analysis

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience applying ML or statistical methods to financial (crypto/DeFi a plus)
  • Strong intuition for model behaviour in production and how it shifts with data, users, and constraints
  • Track record of building reusable ML or data abstractions that meaningfully improved team velocity or decision-making
