  • Deploy generative AI models or integrate their APIs, and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques,
  • Select features, build and optimize classifiers using machine learning techniques.
  • Perform studies and developments aiming at improving the quality of machine translation (MT) engines for each installed language pair, addressing the specific needs of customers of the service concerning MT quality and contributing to a general strategy for the systematic evaluation and long-term improvement of MT quality.
  • Interact with data stewards and other IT stakeholders to define the data rules.
  • Define data controls and implement strategies to ensure data quality, integrity, and the detection and mitigation of bias in datasets and AI models.
  • Create automated anomaly detection systems and constant tracking of its performance.
  • Perform processing, cleansing, and verifying the integrity of data used for analysis.
  • Design and propose the technical architecture for NLP/ML/AI solutions, coordinating its implementation with engineering teams while adhering to data management principles (master data management, metadata).
  • Assess data architecture against quality dimensions (consistency, completeness, accuracy, reasonableness) and recommend target-state improvements.
  • Draft technical guidelines, documentation, and presentations to effectively communicate complex AI concepts, project status, and results to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Ensure compliance with data protection and AI Act regulations.
  • Implement MLOps practices to automate the machine learning lifecycle, including continuous integration, delivery, and monitoring (CI/CD/CD) of models.
  • Monitor model performance in production, identifying model drift and initiating retraining processes to maintain accuracy and relevance.
  • Stay abreast of the latest academic and industry research in AI/ML to propose and pilot innovative solutions that provide competitive advantage.
