- Define technical direction for scientific AI, physics-informed ML, surrogate models, optimization, uncertainty quantification, generative AI, and accelerated computing.
- Own architecture decisions across compute, storage, orchestration, MLOps, governance, security, observability, performance, cost optimization, and enterprise integration.
- Translate scientific and engineering problems into scalable, reusable AI/ML, computational science, simulation, optimization, and data architecture solutions.
- Lead design reviews, architecture governance, technical risk assessment, solution estimation, implementation planning, and quality assurance for complex programs.
- Guide engineering teams on reference architectures, accelerators, coding standards, model lifecycle practices, and production readiness.
- Present and defend technical and business cases to senior stakeholders and support sales and pre-sales through proposals, demonstrations, and proofs of concept.
- Drive thought leadership and reusable assets for scientific AI, simulation intelligence, digital twins, agentic workflows, generative AI, and cloud-native scientific computing.
Requirements
- At least 18 years of professional experience is required; the role also specifies minimum experience thresholds of 8 years in AI/ML or related fields, 5 years architecting enterprise-scale platforms, and 4 years leading technical teams.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent in Computer Science, Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Computational Science, Data Science, or a related field, with 15 years of full-time education.
- At least 4 years of experience with Python and scientific or ML frameworks such as NumPy, SciPy, pandas, scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, or XGBoost.
- At least 3 years of MLOps or production ML experience covering experiment tracking, model registries, CI/CD, feature stores, testing, monitoring, and lifecycle governance.
- At least 3 years of experience with scalable data engineering, distributed computing, workflow orchestration, APIs, batch or stream processing, and cloud-native deployment.
- Hands-on experience with Python, SQL, Git, containers, APIs, orchestration tools, distributed processing, and maintainable software engineering practices.
- Experience with scientific ML approaches including surrogate modeling, physics-informed ML, optimization, time series, anomaly detection, computer vision, NLP, generative AI, and uncertainty-aware modeling.
- At least 5 years of hands-on AWS experience across AI/ML architecture, scientific data platforms, scalable compute, data engineering, and enterprise integration.
- Experience architecting AWS workflows for simulation pipelines, surrogate modeling, optimization, training and inference, monitoring, and secure deployment.
- Strong knowledge of model governance, responsible AI, security, data privacy, observability, model performance monitoring, and production support.
- Preferred qualifications include a master's degree or Ph.D., client-facing consulting or pre-sales experience, HPC and GPU acceleration, CUDA, MPI, digital twins, scientific foundation models, reusable architecture assets, relevant certifications, and agentic AI, RAG, vector search, or knowledge graph experience.
