[What the role is]
The role is responsible for developing and operationalising AI solutions to support critical energy sector operations and regulatory functions. The incumbent will collaborate with data scientists and engineers to design, test, and deploy AI/ML models across the full lifecycle, ensuring solutions are production-ready and scalable. The role also establishes and manages robust MLOps practices, including CI/CD/CT pipelines, automated retraining, performance monitoring, and model governance to maintain reliability and safety. In addition, the incumbent provides technical leadership and stakeholder engagement, translating complex AI insights into actionable outcomes while aligning business objectives, technical feasibility, and compliance requirements.[What you will be working on]
Responsibilities:
(1) AI Solution Development: Work collaboratively with Data Scientists and Data Engineers to design, test, and implement AI/ML models for EMA's diverse use cases across the complete AI/ML lifecycle. Lead the development of production-ready AI solutions that can be deployed reliably, timely, and consistently to support critical energy sector operations and regulatory functions.
(2) MLOps and Production Lifecycle Management: Establish and maintain comprehensive MLOps foundations covering the end-to-end journey from code commit to model retirement. Design continuous integration, continuous deployment, and continuous training (CI/CD/CT) pipelines whilst managing version control across code, data, and models. Implement automated retraining infrastructure with performance monitoring, data drift detection, and guardrail systems to ensure models remain safe and effective in critical infrastructure environments.
(3) Stakeholder Management and Technical Leadership: Lead engagement and alignment initiatives with senior management, data scientists, business users, and vendor/IT teams. Translate complex AI outputs into actionable insights and business intelligence for non-technical audiences. Bridge communications between diverse stakeholders to identify optimal trade-offs between business outcomes, system performance limitations, and compliance requirements.
