Requirements

  • Have proven experience owning evaluation of tabular machine learning systems used in production or high-impact customer decision-making.
  • Bring strong statistical expertise, including metric and validation-scheme selection, uncertainty estimation, model comparisons across datasets, and accounting for repeated experimentation.
  • Have practical experience identifying and preventing data leakage involving preprocessing, feature engineering, joins, temporal dependencies, and related entities across data splits.
  • Be proficient in Python and SQL, and familiar with scikit-learn, gradient-boosted decision trees, and reliable ML tools or platforms used by multiple teams.
  • Have experience designing fair, reproducible model comparisons, including hyperparameter optimization, resource allocation, and end-to-end inference latency measurement.
  • Have people management experience, including hiring, technical mentoring, team development, and performance management, and remain actively involved in technical work.
  • Communicate effectively with researchers, software engineers, and customer data scientists.
  • Be able to challenge unsupported conclusions, communicate uncertainty, and ground technical decisions in reliable evidence.
  • Experience evaluating tabular foundation models or AutoML systems is an advantage.
  • Familiarity with relational or multi-table datasets and data platforms such as Snowflake or Databricks is a plus.
  • Knowledge of automated or agent-driven machine learning workflows is beneficial.

Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain a shared evaluation platform for research, engineering, and Applied AI teams.
  • Develop benchmark suites, curated datasets, and model comparisons for business use cases.
  • Establish evaluation standards for statistical metrics, validation, data splits, leakage prevention, calibration, uncertainty, and benchmark contamination.
  • Design reproducible evaluation pipelines with version-controlled inputs, datasets, and artifacts, and integrate automated regression checks.
  • Benchmark models using fair protocols for hyperparameter tuning, data access, computational resources, and end-to-end latency.
  • Evaluate predictive performance, inference latency, and cost efficiency across deployment configurations, tasks, and datasets.
  • Support customer proof-of-concept evaluations with tooling, methodological guidance, and data-driven analysis.
  • Translate evaluation findings into research priorities, release recommendations, and improvement plans.
  • Recruit, lead, and develop evaluation specialists through priority-setting, technical coaching, and performance feedback.
  • Contribute hands-on Python development, experimental design, statistical analysis, and evaluation methodology.
