Senior Data Scientist

Location: Pune, India

Department: Data Science

Experience: 8-10

Role Overview

At Haber, we are changing how industries run by combining automation with intelligent decision making. As a
Senior Data Scientist, you will build and own the machine learning systems behind our products - Elixa, Kaiznn,
Mount Fuji and our upcoming Fibre Morphology solution.

You will work with time-series sensor data coming from live plants, and build models for quality prediction,
process optimisation, anomaly detection, forecasting and root cause analysis. You will also lead a small team of 2
to 4 data scientists and set the technical direction for how we build and deploy models.
This is a hands-on leadership role. Our models do not stay in notebooks. They run in operating plants, where a
wrong prediction costs real money, water and energy. We are looking for someone who has built a model, put it in
production, seen it degrade, and fixed the system behind it.

Key Responsibilities

● Build AI and ML solutions for quality prediction, process optimisation, anomaly detection, forecasting, root
cause analysis and decision support
● Work with time-series sensor data from live plants, and handle the real problems that come with it - sensor
drift, missing data, changing conditions and limited labels
● Own the full lifecycle: data collection, cleaning, feature engineering, model building, validation, explainability,
deployment and monitoring
● Take models into production and keep them healthy - pipelines, versioning, monitoring, drift detection,
retraining and rollback
● Own the technical direction for the data science team and decide what gets built, what gets reused and what
gets retired
● Lead and mentor 2 to 4 data scientists through code reviews, design reviews and day-to-day guidance
● Contribute to AI system design - data access layers, model services, APIs and cloud deployment on AWS
● Build optimisation and recommendation layers that act on model output in real time, such as setpoint
recommendation for plant operations
● Work on Generative AI and Agentic AI solutions using LLMs, RAG, tool calling and knowledge graphs, as
these become part of our product
● Work closely with domain experts, product, software, cloud and engineering teams to turn industrial problems
into working solutions
● Stay current with research in machine learning, signal processing and industrial optimisation

Must Have

● 8 to 10 years of experience in Data Science and Machine Learning, with real production experience
● Bachelors or Masters in Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics or a related
field
● Strong Python and SQL, with Pandas, NumPy and Scikit-learn
● Strong foundation in statistics, probability, mathematics and optimisation
● Strong experience in time-series analysis and forecasting - this is the core of our work
● Machine learning: regression, classification, clustering, anomaly detection and ensemble models
● Proven experience deploying and maintaining models in production, including monitoring, drift detection and
retraining
● MLOps and production tools: Docker, Git, CI/CD, MLflow, FastAPI or similar
● AWS for deployment and monitoring - S3, Lambda, SageMaker, CloudWatch
● Working knowledge of deep learning using PyTorch or TensorFlow, especially for time-series problems
● Model explainability using SHAP, feature importance or similar methods
Haber – Senior Data Scientist Page 1● Experience mentoring or leading other data scientists
● Ability to work independently and take a project from idea to production
● Good communication skills and comfort working with people who are not data scientists

Good to Have

● Experience in manufacturing, chemicals, pulp and paper, water, energy, pharma, metals or similar industrial
and process environments
● Generative AI: LLMs, prompt engineering, RAG, embeddings and vector databases
● Agentic AI: multi-agent systems, tool and function calling, and Model Context Protocol (MCP)
● LangGraph, LangChain or similar frameworks; Knowledge Graphs or Neo4j
● AWS Bedrock and RDS
● Computer vision: image preprocessing, object detection, classification, segmentation, OpenCV, YOLO, CNNs
or Vision Transformers
● Optimisation, control theory, reinforcement learning or operations research
● Signal processing fundamentals
● Causal analysis, industrial digital twins, or AI governance and ISO 42001 exposure
● Experience building system design, APIs and microservices for production AI systems

What We Offer

● Real-World Impact: Your models will run in operating plants, not just in experimental labs
● Ownership and Autonomy: Freedom to explore, decide and build in a high-trust environment
● Leadership: A small team from day one, with room to grow into wider data science leadership
● Diverse Tech Stack: Time-series, sensor data, vision, optimisation and generative AI in one place
● Fast-Track Learning: A startup where learning never stops and innovation is constant
● Collaborative Culture: A team that supports initiative, experimentation and personal growth
● Product-Minded Thinking: Your work will be closely tied to product and business decisions
