    • Mentor other data scientists and raise the technical bar through design reviews, feedback, and sharing domain expertise.
    • Proactively identify areas where data science can create business value and lead cross‑functional efforts to drive those opportunities forward.

    • Experience working with real‑world product data at scale and translating ambiguous problems into well‑scoped ML solutions.
    • Experience with distributed data processing and training, real‑time inference, and ML Ops frameworks.
    • Prior experience mentoring other data scientists or acting as a tech lead.
    • Experience leading experimentation (A/B testing), causal inference, and real‑time decision systems.
    • Proficiency in Python and SQL, and experience with ML frameworks (scikit‑learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow).
    • Strong grasp of software engineering principles including modular design, version control, testing, and CI/CD.
    • Hands‑on experience with cloud platforms (preferably AWS), including tools like SageMaker, Athena, Glue, DynamoDB, and Bedrock.
    • Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
    • Strong business acumen with the ability to align technical solutions with company goals.
