We are looking for a Data Scientist to develop, deploy, and scale machine learning (ML) and AI solutions for fleet analytics, logistics optimization, and operational decision-making. This is a hands-on role focusing on production-grade ML, real-time and streaming analytics, and AI-driven decision systems built on cloud platforms, including Google Cloud, Kafka, and RisingWave.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and deploy production-grade ML models for fleet optimization, including route optimization, ETA prediction, fuel efficiency, capacity planning, predictive maintenance, and driver behavior analysis.
• Build anomaly detection, forecasting, and time-series models to monitor vehicle health, trip deviations, fuel theft, and demand fluctuations.
• Develop batch and real-time ML pipelines with low-latency inference using Kafka, RisingWave, and cloud services.
• Integrate large language models (OpenAI, Google MCP, Ollama, Hugging Face) for conversational analytics, automated insights, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems.
• Operate MLOps workflows on Google Cloud using Vertex AI Pipelines, Feature Store, and Model Registry, supporting model training, deployment, monitoring, and drift detection.
• Build and optimize end-to-end data pipelines for analytics and ML using BigQuery, Dataflow, Dataproc, Vertex AI, Cloud Functions, Pub/Sub, and Cloud Composer (Airflow).
• Design scalable analytical data models in BigQuery, AlloyDB PostgreSQL, and Snowflake; optimize SQL-based feature engineering, data partitioning, and clustering.
• Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA) to uncover trends, anomalies, and business insights.
• Build dashboards and visualizations for stakeholders.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate business problems into robust data science solutions.
• Support best practices in model development, experimentation, documentation, and data governance.
