As a Manager Reporting & Automation in our recently set up team within the adidas Gurgaon Tech hub you will collaborate closely with the EU ecom Analytics team based in Amsterdam (the Netherlands) and other stakeholders located in other parts of the world (such as Herzogenaurach, Germany). You will be responsible for fully automating ML workflows and models and maintaining their stability. You will play a key role in enabling fact-based decisions through robust and trustworthy ML models. At the same time and on occasion, you will not shy away from performing basic data engineering tasks or mentoring data scientists into relevant ML Ops concepts.
Key Responsibilities
- Partner with the data scientists and data engineers in our team to ensure the stability and trustworthiness of ML models, across the entire ML Ops cycle.
- Apply your expertise to drive the ML Ops discipline of the team to the next level.
- Empower the business to use data science models with confidence through relevant upskilling, documentation, and self-service capabilities.
- Create and maintain stable data & model pipelines (using Databricks MLflow).
- Automate the data science workflow.
- Optimize data science models with engineering techniques such as data storage and OOP improvements.
- Determine how often data science models would need to be trained, tested, and deployed.
- Work on versioning (like Bitbucket / Git / GitHub) and monitoring of training / predictions.
- Create & maintain code repositories.
- Produce data visualization such as charts and dashboards to communicate model findings, accuracy, and error rates to internal stakeholders clearly and effectively.
- Work as part of Agile product teams (e.g. Scrum / Kanban) to deliver business value through data science models.
