About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Work closely with AI researchers and Data Engineering to prepare, organize, and improve data for research and machine learning projects.
  • Build reliable data workflows that move research data from raw sources into usable datasets for analysis, experimentation, training, and evaluation.
  • Explore datasets, identify quality issues or gaps, and determine how to structure and use the data.
  • Prepare datasets for language, vision, multimodal, and retrieval-based AI applications.
  • Ensure research datasets are consistent, traceable, reproducible, and well documented.
  • Automate recurring data preparation and processing tasks.
  • Develop summaries and visualizations to help teams understand datasets, patterns, and issues.
  • Support data integration across research tools, internal systems, and AI platforms.
  • Protect sensitive information and follow data handling practices throughout the data lifecycle.
  • Contribute to an experimental research environment with evolving datasets, methods, and requirements.
  • Stay current on developments in artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, and emerging analytical technologies.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Bachelor’s degree in data science, statistics, computer science, mathematics, engineering, or a related quantitative field.
  • Experience building ETL/data pipelines to clean, transform, integrate, and prepare structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data for AI/ML workflows.
  • Strong Python data manipulation skills, including efficient use of vectorized libraries for large-scale data processing, exploration, and visualization.
  • Working knowledge of SQL, NoSQL, data modeling, columnar formats, and modern data storage technologies.
  • Familiarity with preparing and versioning LLM/VLM training and evaluation datasets, including QA, preference/RL, multimodal, and human-annotated data.
  • Familiarity with embedding pipelines, vector databases, semantic search, RAG, and metadata-aware retrieval workflows.
  • Exposure to graph databases, knowledge graphs, and graph-based data modeling for AI applications.
  • Understanding of data quality, schema validation, dataset versioning, metadata, lineage, and reproducible train/validation/test splits with leakage prevention.
  • Familiarity with distributed data processing and workflow orchestration concepts such as DAGs, task dependencies, scheduling, and pipeline monitoring.
  • Comfortable working in Linux environments with Bash/shell scripting and basic automation.
  • Familiarity with experiment tracking and LLM observability tools such as Weights & Biases and Langfuse.
  • Basic understanding of PII handling, masking, hashing, tokenization, and de-identification within data pipelines.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD and infrastructure automation tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Terraform.
  • Comfortable working with research datasets that may be incomplete, inconsistent, or evolving, and able to investigate the data before implementing a solution.
  • Strong written communication, presentation, and technical-documentation skills.
  • Ability to build effective working relationships across business and technical functions.
  • Ability to exercise sound judgment, manage multiple priorities, and work independently while contributing to cross-functional initiatives.
  • Experience supporting AI/ML research, scientific computing, or other data-intensive research environments.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud data platforms or services in Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud.
  • Experience with data orchestration and distributed processing tools such as Airflow, Prefect, Dagster, Spark, or similar technologies.
  • Familiarity with data annotation and human-in-the-loop platforms such as Label Studio or Prodigy, particularly for machine learning or multimodal datasets.
