Developing Artefact's technical expertise
  • Contribute to testing and implementing advanced AI approaches and emerging techniques on client use cases.
  • Drive initiatives to build internal accelerators, such as modules and tools that can be reused across projects.
  • Maintain an active technology watch: evaluate emerging tools, frameworks, and cloud services to assess how they can address client needs.
  • Share knowledge through workshops, informal training sessions, and documentation, fostering a culture of continuous learning.
Being a great tech manager
  • Lead by example: demonstrate technical rigor, pragmatic problem-solving, and the ability to step in directly on projects when the team needs support.
  • Provide constructive feedback to help data scientists in your team progress in both technical and consulting dimensions.
  • Anticipate risks and unblock teams, ensuring projects stay on track.
  • Balance ambition and feasibility: critically assess approaches, driving innovation while ensuring solutions stay realistic to deliver.
  • Foster collaboration between data scientists, data engineers, and business teams to ensure solutions are effectively integrated and adopted.
Qualifications - What we are looking for
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience developing data-driven solutions.
  • Strong knowledge in applied machine learning and generative AI.
  • Solid understanding of software engineering and MLOps best practices.
  • Experience with industrializing AI workflows in cloud environments.
In addition to technical expertise, we value individuals who can:
  • Lead teams, manage stakeholders, and deliver impactful projects in a business context.
  • Show intellectual curiosity and excellent problem-solving skills.
