Design, build and deploy end-to-end AI/ML pipelines for industrial use cases at scale on cloud-based platforms or on-prem server

Select and implement appropriate AI/ML algorithms, and tools

Build and maintain data pipelines using Python & SQL for reliable data flow between IT/OT systems

Develop time-series forecasting and prediction models for process variables (e.g., temperature, pressure, yield, emissions, energy consumption)

Build optimization models for refinery & petrochemical operations (e.g., fuel optimization, throughput maximization, energy efficiency)

Work with high-frequency process data from historians (e.g., PHD, OPC, SCADA systems)

Perform feature engineering on multivariate time-series data, including lag features, rolling statistics, and domain-driven transformations

Train, evaluate, monitor, retrain and maintain AI/ML models

Deploy models into production using APIs, batch pipelines, or real-time streaming systems

Implement model monitoring, drift detection, and retraining pipelines

Collaborate with process engineers, SMEs, operations teams, and business users to translate domain problems into ML solutions

Ensure scalability, reliability, and performance of deployed AI systems

Regularly update and leverage industry trends and advancements in AI, ML, and Optimization technologies.
