You will identify the right AI approaches for each problem and implement them on the C3 AI Platform so they run reliably at enterprise scale.

Qualified candidates will have deep knowledge of modern AI and ML techniques — including large language models, agentic systems, and classical statistical methods — along with a clear understanding of their limitations and how to adapt them to large-scale production environments. Some travel is expected.

Note: This is a client-facing position. Data Scientists are expected to work on-site with our customers four days per week.

Responsibilities:

  • Analyze model performance across enterprise deployments, diagnose issues such as poor recall or false positive rates, and recommend targeted improvements.
  • Collaborate with data engineers and subject matter experts from C3 AI and customer teams to source, validate, and correctly leverage new data assets.

Qualifications:

  • MS or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Statistics, Operations Research, or a related field.
  • Hands-on AI experience spanning generative AI, agentic systems, supervised and unsupervised learning, and classical regression and classification.
  • Strong mathematical foundation in linear algebra, calculus, probability, and statistics.
  • Experience building and deploying models at scale in distributed or cloud-native environments.
  • Ability to drive projects independently and collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical teams.
  • Sharp, motivated, and focused on making a real impact.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
