Lead the design, development, and deployment of AI and machine learning systems for promotion optimization, price elasticity, demand forecasting, and personalized recommendations. Build scalable forecasting models, causal-inference solutions, dynamic pricing systems, ML pipelines, APIs, and monitoring workflows. Collaborate with data engineering, product, marketing analytics, and cloud teams while ensuring secure, stable, and cost-effective production deployments.
We’re looking for a Senior AI Engineer I to help design, build, and scale our next generation promotion optimization and forecasting platform. This role sits at the intersection of machine learning, data science, and applied statistics, focusing on personalized promotions, price elasticity modeling, and demand forecasting across thousands of SKUs.
You’ll work closely with data engineers, product managers, and marketing analytics to design AI driven decision systems that maximize business impact while ensuring technical excellence and scalability.
Duties & Responsibilities
Forecasting & Modeling
• Develop and deploy time-series forecasting models (e.g., Prophet, ARIMA, DeepAR, LSTM, Temporal Fusion Transformer) to predict demand, revenue, and promotion lift.
• Apply advanced statistical and causal-inference methods to understand promotion effects and seasonality.
• Build dynamic pricing and promotion recommendation models leveraging reinforcement learning or multi armed bandits.
AI System Design
• Architect ML pipelines for promotion targeting and ROI optimization
• Design end to end data workflows from data ingestion to model deployment integrated with production APIs and dashboards.
• Contribute to scalable model monitoring, retraining, and drift detection.
Data Engineering & APIs
• Work with SQL databases, data warehouses (Azure SQL, Snowflake, Databricks Delta, etc.), and APIs to retrieve, transform, and operationalize data.
• Collaborate with cloud teams to ensure efficient and secure deployment of AI services (Azure or GCP).
The ideal candidate should have a background that demonstrates strong technical and solution experience designing and building systems that consider careful technology selection, security, interfaces, performance, stability, security, and economy of operation. Experience within the retail domain is highly desired.
Requirements
Basic Qualifications
• Master’s degree in computer science, Data Science, Statistics, or a related field.
• 6+ years of experience in designing, developing, and deploying AI/ML solutions.
• Proficiency in Python and its AI/ML libraries (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn).
• Strong expertise in forecasting and time series analysis techniques.
• Solid understanding of machine learning algorithms and statistical modeling.
• Experience with data preprocessing, feature engineering, and model evaluation.
• Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git) and collaborative development workflows.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene
To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
