Data Scientist – LLM Expert

Description

As an Associate Data Scientist at Kyndryl’s AI Innovation Hub, you’ll be part of a team that turns data into intelligent, high-impact solutions.

You’ll collaborate with senior data scientists, ML engineers, and AI architects to design, train, and validate predictive and machine learning models that tackle real business and operational challenges.

You’ll participate in every stage of the model lifecycle — from data exploration and feature engineering to modeling, evaluation, and documentation — helping transform raw data into actionable insights.

This is a hands‑on, learning‑focused role in which you’ll work with modern technologies, contribute to scalable AI solutions, and grow your expertise within an environment that values experimentation, rigor, and curiosity.

If you’re passionate about data, eager to learn from experienced professionals, and ready to contribute to cutting‑edge AI initiatives for leading global clients, this is your opportunity to build the foundation of your career in applied data science.

Your Mission

Collaborate with senior scientists and engineers to develop and validate machine learning and predictive models.

Participate in the end‑to‑end model lifecycle— from data collection and preparation to training, evaluation, and documentation.

Contribute to feature engineering, exploratory analysis, and performance optimization of models.

Apply statistical and analytical techniques to extract meaningful patterns and insights from data.

Assist in model deployment and monitoring within MLOps environments and cloud platforms.

Document experiments and ensure transparency, reproducibility, and traceability of results.

Stay up to date with new algorithms, frameworks, and best practices in data science and applied AI.

Actively contribute to a collaborative, knowledge‑sharing culture within the Hub.

Who You Are
