Toronto, Canada Robots & Pencils Full time
Job Description

You do remarkable things and solve tough problems where many others have failed before. We are looking for people who are driven to be pioneers. If this is you -- we want to hear from you

Who you are:

You are someone who believes that insights can be mined from data and utilized to predict a user’s behaviour. You love to experiment and have a strong desire to learn. You have strong opinions that are weakly held; you are humble yet confident.

You know the difference between Regression and Clustering, when to use Supervised vs Unsupervised Learning, and can debate the merits of dimensionality reduction using Principal Component Analysis. You’re not bound to any one framework, library, or tool suite and feel like you could pick up any tool or language that’s right for the job. You’re also diligent about meeting allocated budgets and can work within time constraints, but you will never sacrifice quality. 

On top of this, you are independent, but you’re also comfortable working in cross-functional teams. You have excellent communications skills and can share insights and expectations with stakeholders, clients, team members and various levels of management.

  • Analyze client data as well as our own data, delivering first-class statistical analyses and predictive models

  • Create large labeled datasets on which to carry out various forms of supervised/unsupervised learning and model testing

  • Interact with data engineers and software engineers to make algorithms scalable and production-ready

  • Support sales and project managers with technical insights, leading to the creation of budgets and schedules for projects

  • Share knowledge and insights with team members through lunch n’ learn programs or mentorship

  • Experience in software development or MS in computer science or a field related to data science

  • Experience with open source statistical analysis software packages for Python (Pandas, NumPy, SciPy) or R

  • Experience with big data and query tools (SQL, Spark, Hive, Hadoop)

  • Experience with Cloud Technologies/Services like Azure, AWS and Google Cloud

  • Experience with ML libraries, frameworks, or APIs such as TensorFlow, Caffe, Torch, Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit, SageMaker, Watson

  • Strong statistical or mathematical background, with exposure to deep/machine learning, social network analysis, or recommender systems

  • Excellent communications skills with the ability to share insights and expectations with clients, stakeholders and colleagues, both locally and remotely


Qualifications

  • Five to seven years of experience developing applications that use AI
  •  Five to seven years of building app with Node.js and KOA on AWS with K8 required
  • Experience with React is a plus
  • Experience with technologies like Python and Node.js as well as knowledge of large language models 
  • Create large labeled datasets on which to carry out various forms of supervised/unsupervised learning and model testing
  • Interact with data engineers and software engineers to make algorithms scalable and production-ready
  • Support sales and project managers with technical insights, leading to the creation of budgets and schedules for projects
  • Share knowledge and insights with team members through lunch n’ learn programs or mentorship
  • Experience in software development or MS in computer science or a field related to data science
