**Job Title**
Apprentice Data Scientist – Mechanical
**Role Summary**
Work as a liaison between the Data Science team and mechanical engineering units to collect, structure, and model data. Design, develop, and deploy AI solutions—such as document information extraction, OCR, and generative chatbots—on Azure DevOps, and provide user-facing interfaces. Support continuous improvement of tools and communicate results to non‑technical stakeholders.
**Expectations**
- Act as primary contact for mechanical engineering teams to elicit and formalise data needs.
- Independently manage data pipelines and model training workflows.
- Demonstrate strong analytical, programming, and machine‑learning skills.
- Collaborate within a cross‑disciplinary data science network and contribute to knowledge sharing.
- Display motivation, autonomy, and a strong desire to learn.
**Key Responsibilities**
- Gather and document requirements from mechanical engineering stakeholders.
- Collect, clean, and structure heterogeneous data (tabular, technical documents, 2D/3D CAD files, images).
- Develop AI/ML solutions: information extraction from documents, OCR, intelligent file search, and domain‑specific LLM fine‑tuning.
- Build, test, and deploy models and services using Python libraries (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit‑learn, PyTorch) and APIs (FastAPI).
- Containerise applications with Docker and orchestrate on Azure DevOps pipelines.
- Release user interfaces to engineering teams and gather feedback for iterative improvement.
- Present outcomes and explain AI concepts to technical and non‑technical audiences.
**Required Skills**
- Strong foundation in linear algebra, probability, and statistics.
- Proficiency in Python, including Pandas, NumPy, Scikit‑learn, PyTorch, and FastAPI.
- Experience in machine‑learning and deep‑learning model development.
- Knowledge of natural language processing and computer vision.
- Familiarity with Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG), OCR, and generative AI is a plus.
- Experience with Docker, Azure DevOps, and API deployment.
- Excellent communication and documentation abilities.
**Required Education & Certifications**
- Current enrolment in an engineering school or equivalent (Bac+4/5) with a specialization in Data Science/AI, Computer Science, or Applied Mathematics (e.g., X, ENS, CentraleSupélec, Mines Paris, Télécom Paris, ENSTA, ENSAE, Ponts ParisTech).
- No mandatory certifications, but knowledge of relevant AI/ML certifications (e.g., Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Engineer Associate, TensorFlow Developer Certificate) is advantageous.
