- Guide the design, training, and refinement of AI/ML models that understand and replicate strong teaching practices, while collaborating closely with LMS developers and designers to ensure smooth integration.
Requirements
- Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, or a related field.
- At least five years of hands-on experience leading AI/ML projects, ideally within education technology.
- Strong practical knowledge of TensorFlow or PyTorch and fluency in Python.
- Proven skill in handling and preparing large datasets for model training.
- Demonstrated success leading technical teams and delivering projects to completion.
