Senior Data Scientist (Availability)

Description

• Lead end-to-end ML projects: task setting -> solution -> testing -> production -> support;

• Work with data engineers to create datasets and data requirements, assess feasibility, risks, and limitations;

• Participate in the design and analysis of A/B tests together with data analysts: metrics, splits, interpretation of results, recommendations for rolling out solutions;

• Develop and train models (classic ML + DL), including solutions for text and image embeddings; conduct offline evaluation and error analysis;

• Transfer the model and code to production (Python service), support releases and integrations;

• Be responsible for model quality after launch: metrics, monitoring, drift/degradation, improvement plan, and support regulations

Requirements

• At least 4+ years as a Data Scientist;

• Experience managing end-to-end ML projects in production (from setup to support);

• Experience with DL (PyTorch/TensorFlow): understanding of fine-tuning principles, model inference;

• Python (production quality): readable code, tests for critical components, understanding of model/artifact packaging and integration into the service;

• Understanding of ML monitoring: quality metrics, drift, alerts, diagnostics, and support regulations;

• SQL at the level of independent dataset assembly (joins, window functions);

• Experience with model interpretability and error analysis;

• MLflow / W&B / DVC or similar experiment tracking tools;

• ML stack - classic machine learning algorithms / understanding of basic ranking approaches (pointwise, pairwise) and their practical application / experience with time series would be a plus;

• Conversational English.

Benefits

• A fully flexible work schedule — there’s no pressure to start work at exactly 9:00 AM; what matters is achieving results and moving forward;

• In tourism, it's difficult to grow without an excellent knowledge of English, and we support our employees' language learning goals — we organize group and individual lessons, plus speaking clubs with colleagues from all over the world;

• And, of course, to encourage you to travel more, we offer corporate prices on hotels and other travel services;

• We prioritize well-being and are committed to supporting the overall health and work-life balance at ETG.
