Job Title: Data Scientist - GenAI

Location: NJ

Work Experience: 10+ Years

Location: Jersey City,NJ

On-site requirement: 4 days per week at Jersey City office

Job Summary:

We are looking for a highly capable and innovative Data Scientist with experience in Generative AI to join our Data Science Team. You will lead the development and deployment of GenAI solutions, including LLM-based applications, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, embeddings, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for enterprise use cases.

The ideal candidate has a strong foundation in machine learning and NLP, with hands-on experience in modern GenAI tools and frameworks such as OpenAI, LangChain, Hugging Face, Vertex AI, Bedrock, or similar.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and build Generative AI solutions using Large Language Models (LLMs) for business problems across domains like customer service, document automation, summarization, and knowledge retrieval.
  • Fine-tune or adapt foundation models using domain-specific data.
  • Implement RAG pipelines, embedding models, vector databases (e.g., FAISS, Pinecone, ChromaDB).
  • Collaborate with data engineers, MLOps, and product teams to build end-to-end AI applications and APIs.
  • Develop custom prompts and prompt chains using tools like LangChain, LlamaIndex, PromptFlow, or custom frameworks.
  • Evaluate model performance, mitigate bias, and optimize accuracy, latency, and cost.
  • Stay up to date with the latest trends in LLMs, transformers, and GenAI architecture.

Required Skills:

  • 10+ years of experience in Data Science / ML, with 1+ year hands-on in LLMs / GenAI projects.
  • Strong Python programming skills, especially in libraries such as Transformers, LangChain, scikit-learn, PyTorch, or TensorFlow.
  • Experience with OpenAI (GPT-4), Claude, Mistral, LLaMA, or similar models.
  • Knowledge of vector search, embedding models (e.g., BERT, Sentence Transformers), and semantic search techniques.
  • Ability to build scalable AI workflows and deploy them via APIs or web apps (e.g., FastAPI, Streamlit, Flask).
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure) and MLOps best practices.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate technical solutions into business impact.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with prompt tuning, few-shot learning, or LoRA-based fine-tuning.
  • Knowledge of data privacy and security considerations in GenAI applications.
  • Familiarity with enterprise architecture, SDLC, or building GenAI use cases in regulated domains (e.g., finance, insurance, healthcare).

Base Compensation Range: 130,000-140,000
