Lead Data Scientist (NLP, CV)

IHS Markit

Your RoleYou will be responsible for research and development of intelligence behind document structure understanding solutions as part of IHS Markit products. Your role is needed to design and implement intelligent content understanding pipelines from raw document to a structured knowledge.
Your duties will include:
  • Technically lead the team of data scientists and ML engineers to develop production ready components based on recent SOTA approaches for CV and NLP
  • Hands-on researching, prototyping and building content understanding pipelines and working models as their components, including state of art neural architectures in combined Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing domains – data augmentation, model selection, pre-training, optimization, etc.
  • Converting business problems to data science tasks collaborating with Product and Project managers
  • Defining and/or influencing the strategy of research-intensive projects, including goal metrics, development process, toolsets and communications for optimal progress
  • Hunting for quality datasets, including driving the development of datasets from scratch
  • Learning and sharing new things around ML/DL for CV and NLP to keep the AI team on the cutting edge
About YouYou are a data scientist/deep learning engineer experienced in building the working intelligent solutions related to analysis of unstructured content, who is motivated by complex and fuzzy challenges. Your required qualifications and experience include:
  • Degree in data science, math & computer science, statistics or related field
  • 4+ years of professional experience in data science and deep learning with application to Computer Vision and/or Natural Language Processing
  • Soft skills of a technical leader for the team (communication, engagement, patience, motivation, integrity)
  • Strong programming skills in Python with engineering
  • Strong practical experience in building of own DL models with TensorFlow, Keras and/or PyTorch, etc.
