We predict trends in the aerospace and government defense entities and aim to influence actual changes in government policies through innovation.


JOB DESCRIPTION:


As a newly created role for a team of four, you will integrate large-scale data preprocessing with machine learning, transparent integration, and the use of data structures and algorithms, enabling training models leveraging a distributed in-memory machine learning platform. Areas to cover will include analytics engines for large-scale data processing. You will demonstrate model training together with hyper-parameter tuning (Random Grid-Search with time constraint) of various algorithms using AutoML-training meta model combining different algorithms. You will demonstrate target encoding by using Bullisher API documentation, the dashboard, analytics, configuration, and application health. We are a startup enhancing the formation to early stages of a product development project. The oversight requires you to deploy trained models into production, expedite a branch deployment, and design, deploy, and operate a full-stack system. Areas to improve will include replacing existing workflows with advanced machine learning algorithms, including NLP and ensemble methods using powerful data munging, ML pipelines with advanced algorithms fully deployed for speed and accuracy with graphical user interface (GUI). You will also participate in software development meetings with the CEO, CTO, CIO, V.P of Data Processing and Governance, and V.P of Software Engineering and Advanced Analytics to determine technical requirements and will undergo a formal approval, review, and voting by representatives for security impact analysis (the Change Approval Board).


WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR:



  • A proven record of implementation of method transformers.
  • The technical ability to convert one data-frame into a tokenizer.
  • Proficiently fitting implementing methods that accept data-frames and produce models into transformers.
  • In-depth knowledge of deployment of chains, multiple transformers, and estimators to create ML workflow.
  • Develop detailed analyses repeatedly evaluating different features in engineering steps, algorithms, hyper-parameters, train original datasets, and cross-validation.
  • Superior ability to build and execute specifying a list of learning models combined into a powerful meta-learning model.
  • Solid experience with specifying a mechanism of converting categorical features to continuous features based on the mean calculated values of the targeted labels column and running it through the pipeline model.


PHYSICAL DEMANDS:This position requires the ability to communicate and exchange information and utilize equipment necessary to perform the job.


ENVIRONMENT:This position will operate in the following areas of the organization: regulatory engineering division “Multidomain Defence Dock.”


MULTIDOMAIN DEFENCE DOCK:Standard engineering lab environment.
