• Integrate data science models into Data and ML pipelines in collaboration with data scientists and data engineers
• Design and execute machine learning tests and experiments, by applying best practices for experiment tracking and model registry
• Build and orchestrate MLOps pipelines including CI/CD to automate data ingestion and transformation, model (re-)training,(re-)deployment, inference and monitor
• Support the industrialization of scalable data science solutions through automation and continuous delivery
• Identifying changes in models and shifts in data distribution that could affect model performance, and apply appropriate measures for protecting against drifts
• Apply strong testing and quality assurance practices
• Support field trials with our customers using the mobility analytics software modules and tools
• Analyses and checks the suitability of an algorithm if it caters the needs of the current task/business problem
• Attend meetings, submit work progress reports and perform related duties as required
