We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist III to lead the design and validation of Agentic AI-driven product capabilities within the legal domain. This role focuses on defining what to build and why-leveraging machine learning, NLP, and large language models (LLMs) to solve complex legal workflows.

You will drive experimentation, modeling, and evaluation, partnering closely with engineers to translate validated approaches into scalable, customer-facing solutions.

Responsibilities:
  • Lead experimentation and model development for AI/ML solutions in legal products.
  • Design and evaluate NLP, LLM, and generative AI approaches (e.g., RAG, prompt strategies).
  • Define agentic workflows and reasoning strategies for multi-step legal tasks.
  • Define retrieval strategies, including hybrid search (semantic lexical), and evaluation metrics (e.g., relevance, ranking quality).
  • Analyze large-scale legal datasets to extract insights and improve model performance.
  • Establish best practices for model evaluation, validation, and benchmarking.
  • Translate experimental results into clear product recommendations and business impact.
  • Collaborate with product, legal experts, and engineers to align solutions with user needs.
  • Mentor team members and provide technical leadership in data science and AI.

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in a relevant field (e.g., Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics).
  • Strong experience in machine learning, NLP, and LLM-based modeling.
  • Proven experience designing and running experiments, including model evaluation and iteration.
  • Experience with generative AI techniques (e.g., prompt engineering, RAG).
  • Experience designing and evaluating hybrid search (semantic lexical) using embeddings and vector databases.
  • Experience designing agentic workflows and reasoning strategies, with hands-on experience applying agent frameworks (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen) in real-world use cases.
  • Proficiency in Python and data analysis tools.
  • Ability to define retrieval strategies, including hybrid search (semantic lexical), and evaluation metrics (e.g., relevance, ranking quality).
  • Able to analyze large-scale legal datasets to extract insights and improve model performance.
