What the Role Entails

We are looking for an Associate Data Scientist to help build AI-powered capabilities for our influencer marketing platform. This role focuses on turning data and machine learning into practical product features—from creator discovery and content understanding to campaign optimization and performance prediction.
You will work at the intersection of data science, product, and engineering, helping bring intelligent systems into real world use cases that drive measurable business impact.

1. Applied AI & Model Development

Develop and deploy machine learning / AI models to enhance platform capabilities.
Work on use cases such as:
- Creator segmentation and recommendation.
- Creator Content labeling and data analysis.
- Campaign performance prediction and optimization.
- Agentic Systems Developing.

2. Problem Framing & Experimentation

Translate business and product problems into data science solutions.
Design experiments to validate hypotheses and measure impact.
Iterate on models based on performance, feedback, and real-world usage.

3. Data Pipeline & Feature Engineering

Work with data engineers to define and build scalable data pipelines.
Clean, process, and structure large datasets (creator data, content metadata, campaign performance).
Design meaningful features that improve model performance.

4. Product Integration

Collaborate closely with product managers and engineers to integrate models into the platform.
Ensure models are production-ready, reliable, and scalable.
Contribute to API design, model serving, and inference workflows.

5. Monitoring & Continuous Improvement

Track model performance using appropriate metrics (accuracy, precision, recall, business KPIs).
Maintain documentation and ensure reproducibility.
