Senior Data Scientist

Autodesk Autodesk · Enterprise · Toronto, ON +2

Senior Data Scientist to join Autodesk’s Platform Strategy and Emerging Technologies (PSET) organization to develop next-generation applied AI solutions. The role involves developing and deploying end-to-end AI/ML pipelines, applying Generative AI for scalable solutions like AI assistants, and building classic ML applications for personalization and recommendations. Requires expertise in large-scale ML model development, deep learning, RL, or NLP, with hands-on experience in AI/LLM development and fine-tuning.

What you'd actually do

  1. Develop & deploy end-to-end AI/ML pipelines, by partnering with data developers and contribute from data preprocessing to model training, validation, deployment, and monitoring
  2. Design and implement advanced statistical & experimentation frameworks, including post-launch causal inference techniques (e.g. A/B testing, propensity score matching) to measure product impact
  3. Application of Generative AI to develop scalable solutions - such as AI assistants to support platform capabilities
  4. Build classic machine learning applications such as personalization, recommendation, and ranking systems to improve customer workflows and drive product adoption
  5. Conduct technical reviews, and promote best practices in experimentation, model development, and MLOps
