• Contribute to the development, training, and improvement of machine learning models.
• Design and execute structured experiments using appropriate validation strategies (cross-validation, hold-out testing, statistical comparison).
• Evaluate models using appropriate performance metrics (Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1, RMSE, etc.).
• Optimize models and inference pipelines for performance, memory efficiency, and real-time constraints when required.
• Ensure reproducibility, traceability, and proper validation of models within regulated or industrial environments.
• Support chemometrics-related workflows, including spectral preprocessing, feature extraction, multivariate modeling, and validation for spectroscopy-based applications.

Production & System Integration

• Design and implement production-ready ML pipelines integrated with software applications and hardware systems.
• Ensure models are maintainable, version-controlled, and deployable within real-world products.
• Contribute to the design and evolution of ML system architecture and reusable pipeline components.
• Develop unit and integration tests for ML components to ensure reliability.
• Document ML modules and interfaces to support long-term maintainability.
• Work closely with software and firmware teams to integrate ML models into desktop applications, services, and embedded workflows.

Tools, Innovation & Growth
