Senior Data Scientist for the Search team

About the team

Our team develops new approaches in product search and individual listing search. Our main goal is to improve customer happiness by matching products through an AI assistant. We are looking for a strong Data Scientist with experience in building RAG systems, recommendations, or search, who can bring an outside perspective to our team. In the role of Data Scientist, you will participate in all stages of system development — from data collection and preparation to model deployment and evaluation of their performance.

Examples of future tasks:

• Development of RAG for products and individual listings;
• Training and implementation of vector search models;
• Building a validation pipeline for assistant-based search.

It would be great if you:

• Have extensive experience in Python development, understand the basics of parallel programming;
• Possess confident skills in working with PyTorch and have successful experience in creating non-standard training pipelines;
• Know the main DL architectures in your domain, understand the transformer architecture;
• Have a broad knowledge in the field of LLMs and can distinguish prompting from training, training from distillation, and distillation from quantization.
