Join a team at the forefront of innovation, where vehicle software design, release, warranty, and telemetry data converge to transform engineering and quality processes. We’re pioneering intelligent automation through advanced prognostics powered by smart algorithms, large language models (LLMs), and machine learning driving faster issue resolution and launching vehicles with exceptional quality.
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer for Data Science to build scalable, AI-driven solutions that deliver measurable impact across engineering and customer experience.
The Role
As a Senior Software Engineer for Data Science, you will lead the development of scalable AI/ML powered analytics and prognostics applications in a cloud environment, driving innovation across vehicle telemetry and software integration domains.
You’ll collaborate cross-functionally with engineers, data scientists, and domain experts to deliver high-impact solutions that improve vehicle quality and customer satisfaction. You will contribute to executive decision-making, product launch strategies, and data-driven quality improvements while staying ahead in a fast-paced, evolving tech landscape.
What You’ll Do
Prototype, and productionize scalable AI systems, with an emphasis on hybrid AI pipelines including LLMs.
Lead AI/ML analysis of vehicle engineering and telemetry data ensuring robustness, interpretability, and physical relevance of outputs.
Apply statistical methods, anomaly detection, and clustering to uncover patterns.
Work with large scale data sets and collaborate with subject matter experts to incorporate physical interpretations of insights
Leverage advanced data analytics and signal processing techniques to extract actionable insights from complex telemetry datasets
Create interactive data visualizations to communicate and interpret complex data
Design and build supervised and unsupervised ML models
Develop and operationalize full-stack AI pipelines using MLOps practices (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes, FastAPI, MLFlow, cloud-native services).
Define strategies for large-scale data ingestion, embedding generation, retrieval tuning, and prompt optimization in production environments.
Ensure scalability, reproducibility, and performance of deployed models through well-defined evaluation, monitoring, and retraining mechanisms.
Mentor junior level employees, providing coaching and guidance on difficult issues.
Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)
