About Us
At Atomeocean, we leverage cutting-edge data science to revolutionize the job-seeking experience. Our platform harnesses AI and predictive analytics to match talent with opportunities seamlessly. We’re seeking a Data Scientist to build scalable models, uncover deep insights, and drive data-centric innovation across our product.
Job Description
You’ll architect data solutions that transform raw data into strategic assets. Partner with cross-functional teams to deploy machine learning models, design experiments, and optimize algorithms that enhance user outcomes and business growth.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and productionize machine learning models (e.g., recommendation systems, NLP for resume/job matching, churn prediction).
- Design and analyze A/B tests and causal inference studies to measure model impact.
- Build data pipelines (Python/SQL, Airflow) to automate feature engineering and model training.
- Collaborate with engineers to implement MLOps best practices (model monitoring, versioning).
- Conduct exploratory data analysis (EDA) to identify trends, anomalies, and new feature opportunities.
- Research and prototype advanced techniques (e.g., graph algorithms, LLM fine-tuning) to solve complex problems.
- Communicate insights through dashboards (Tableau/Metabase) and technical whitepapers for stakeholders.
Core Qualifications
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, or related field.
- Experience: More than two years of professional experience in data science, with a track record of deploying ML models in production.
- Technical Expertise:
- Advanced Python (PyTorch/TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, Pandas).
- SQL optimization for large-scale datasets (100M+ rows).
- Cloud platforms (AWS/GCP) and distributed computing (Spark/Dask).
- Experimentation frameworks (StatsModels, Bayesian inference).
- Analytical Rigor:
- Ability to balance technical depth with business pragmatism.
- Strong statistical foundation (hypothesis testing, bias-variance tradeoffs).
- Communication:
- Fluency in English and Mandarin (to align global teams).
- Experience translating model outputs into executive-level strategy.
Preferred Skills
- Deep learning (transformers, embeddings) or NLP (BERT, topic modeling).
- Feature stores (Feast) and model serving (FastAPI, Seldon).
- Publications or open-source contributions in ML/DS.
Preferred But Not Required
All preferred qualifications are optional and are not minimum requirements for the position.
These preferred skills do not increase the complexity of the offered position and do not elevate the wage level.
Wage Level Justification
This posting is classified using the worksheet method from the DOL's 2009 Prevailing Wage Determination Policy Guidance (see Wage Level Determination). Baseline occupation: Data Scientists (O*NET-SOC 15-2051.00), Job Zone 4 — experience range over 2 and up to 4 years; usual education: Bachelor's degree.
Compared with the Level I posting, this posting adds two minimum requirements:
- Experience (Step 2): more than two years of professional data science experience falls in the low end of the Job Zone 4 range (over 2 and up to 4 years), adding +1.
- Special skills (Step 4): Mandarin-English bilingual communication is a foreign-language requirement, generally treated as a special skill, adding +1.
| Worksheet step | Level I posting | This posting | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Step 2 Experience | No prior professional experience required | More than two years — low end of the Job Zone 4 range | +1 |
| Step 3 Education | Bachelor's degree | Bachelor's degree | +0 |
| Step 4 Special Skills | Mandarin preferred only | Mandarin and English required as a minimum qualification — foreign-language special skill | +1 |
| Step 5 Supervisory Duties | None | None | +0 |
Starting at Level I (1) + 2 points = Level III.
