Job description

At Mindsay, our Data Scientists are also called AI Software Engineers. As a Data Scientist at Mindsay, you will be working on the implementation of our Natural Language Understanding algorithms, from conceiving the individual models to deploying them to production. You will work on our intent classification and entity detection models, our conversation’s grading models and our pipeline for self-learning.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Conceiving and evaluating NLP models
  • Deploying those models to production, integrating them in our pipelines and adapting our code base
  • Creating and maintaining data pipelines to train the models and automatically update them
  • Creating and maintaining internal APIs to serve these models with a high service level availability and fast response times

You will also participate in our research meetings where we conceive and challenge our general NLU algorithms before actually implementing them.

Your work in data science will include:

  • Reading bleeding edge papers on Natural Language Processing, Deep Learning and Reinforcement Learning
  • Writing tailored deep neural network architectures for your use cases
  • Conceiving and developing innovating algorithms and pipelines

Our algorithm and back-end APIs are written in Python 3, and our models are using tensorflow, keras and scikit-learn. You will also need to know basic Unix commands to manage the virtual machines hosting your server.


Preferred experience

This position requires a background in both software engineering and machine learning. We’re looking for candidates with at least five years experience in software engineering and a few years experience in machine learning.

We don’t require you to be familiar with every technology listed above. Instead, we’re looking for candidates that demonstrate enthusiasm and pro-activity. You are expected to be organised in your work, write clean and efficient code and always remain attentive to details.

We look for people who don’t choose deep neural networks over linear regression if the latter is enough, but who are not afraid of designing an adversarial learning pipeline when it clearly is the best solution.

You’ll find that members of the Tech team are often in front of whiteboards devising better designs or coaching each other, and we expect you to actively be a part of these discussions.

Bonus points:

  • Experience on working on large python projects, adding features, maintaining them and testing them
  • Experience on deploying projects to production and managing Unix servers hosted in the cloud
  • Experience on writing models using machine learning frameworks such as scikit-learn or tensorflow
  • Participation in programming contests (eg Google Code Jam) or data science contests (eg Kaggle contests)
