• Explore building a standalone agentic workforce for media operations  
• Ensure data quality and integrity across multiple sources and processing stages 
• Communicate findings and insights clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders 
• Assist in identifying and implementing SOTA and emerging AI/ML techniques  
• Contribute to team-wide technical decisions, planning, and long-term strategy 

This role will be a great fit if you have:  

• 1+ years of experience in data science with a solid foundation in statistics and machine learning 
• Proficiency in Python (and its core data/ML libraries) and SQL 
• Hands-on experience with ETL processes, large datasets (1M+ rows), and data cleaning and validation 
• Knowledge of frameworks like LangChain, Langraph 
• Ability to design and customize AI agents using RAG and similar techniques 
• Familiarity with AWS or another major cloud platform 
• Experience with time-series forecasting, recommender systems, NLP, or optimization problems  
• Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to bridge technical and non-technical perspectives 
• Self-driven and comfortable handling tasks independently in a remote setup 

We would also appreciate: 

• Familiarity with Docker or Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring tools, and Git 
• Previous experience with setting up MCP/A2 integrations is desired but not required 
• Background or interest in the advertising or marketing technology space 

Interview Process
