Additional Skills & Qualifications
There will be a heavy research and analysis component to this job, especially around risk management related to artificial intelligence and GenAI. They will be diving into an understanding of the biases of AI and the algorithms created by other data scientists on the team, how the data flows through the algorithm, and the risks associated to the outcomes. They'll be developing their own algos a smaller percentage of their time, but need to have a strong background in Python to be able to read the code of the 18 existing AI models and their architecture. They'll be spending a lot of time trying to break what exists and raising questions around why certain things were done that way. From a documentation perspective, they'll need to be able to create graphical representations of their findings so a lay person could understand them.
