Principal Full Stack Data Scientist

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Colombia.

📋 Description

• Design and construct data pipelines that feed into machine learning training and inference workflows.

• Develop, assess, and iterate on machine learning and statistical models aimed at business solutions.

• Manage the complete model lifecycle: development, validation, deployment, and monitoring.

• Integrate GenAI tools (LLMs, copilots, agents) into the daily development workflow to expedite deliverables.

• Deploy models in production environments, ensuring reliability, performance, and system maintenance.

• Collaborate with stakeholders to translate complex business problems into functional data science solutions.

• Document work clearly enough for the team to maintain and extend it.

⛳️ Requirements

• Professional degree in Systems Engineering, Computing, Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or related fields with a strong background in engineering and software development.

• Over 5 years of proven experience leading end-to-end ML projects—from raw data to production systems.

• Practical experience designing data architectures and ETL/ELT pipelines.

• Daily use of productivity tools based on GenAI is a requirement, not a differentiator.

• Advanced proficiency in Python and key ML libraries (scikit-learn, PyTorch, or TensorFlow).

• Strong fundamentals in data engineering: pipeline design, data modeling, and ETL/ELT processes.

• Practical experience with data engineering tools: dbt, Airflow, Spark, or equivalents.

• Proficiency in SQL.

• Experience deploying and monitoring models in production (Docker, FastAPI, cloud ML services).

• Active and professional use of Generative AI tools in daily workflows (Copilot, Cursor, LLM-based agents, prompt engineering).

• Advanced English (C1 or higher)—essential for communication with the team and stakeholders.
