Senior Data Scientist
Hybrid- Montréal, Quebec, Canada
Service-Conseil
Job description
Moov AI, an independent, Montreal-based company, has been bringing the power of artificial intelligence & machine learning to businesses of all sizes since 2018. Our mission is to make AI accessible across Quebec.
If, as a senior data scientist, you are looking to advance your career towards consulting and the practical application of artificial intelligence while joining a team that values authenticity, we have an exciting opportunity for you.
Being a Senior Data Scientist at Moov AI
As a senior data scientist in the AI solutions delivery team, you take pleasure in coding, supporting your clients, and assisting the rest of your team with more complex challenges. You understand what it takes to deliver an AI project, and you support your team in anticipating obstacles and implementing best development practices. You feel a personal satisfaction when the solution your team has designed is not only robust but also delivers value to the client.
You think about clients' business problems in their entirety and not just the algorithmic model – you can understand the whole solution for a complex problem with multiple dependencies. You are also capable of independently executing the majority of typical domain tasks while contributing to the resolution of complex problems that sometimes require a thorough and comprehensive analysis and understanding of all variables.
You contribute to the technical excellence of your delivery team colleagues by being the go-to person. Your colleagues naturally turn to you for technical assistance. You coach less experienced employees and assist your project manager in task breakdowns.
You actively contribute to process improvements with other seniors and do so autonomously. You propose solutions for the improvement and optimization of processes, programs, and work methods.
Daily Life at Moov AI
You typically work with data engineers, other data scientists, and an Agile project manager; you form a trio of expertise that supports a company on a project. Together, during the project, you evaluate the client's context and data to determine and define the expected impact; you then design a solution based on a model you create. Overall, you spend your time coding while advising and guiding your client and team members.
Throughout Your Career at Moov AI
You will experience a wide range of industries, roles, and clients; you will change jobs without changing employers. For example, the AI solutions designed by Moov AI have led to reduced food waste at a major grocery chain, improved the traffic prediction model for the STM, and enabled an international aerospace company to better predict engine maintenance. That's the kind of list that whets your appetite.
Beyond your title at Moov AI
You have the opportunity to exercise your leadership in many spheres of the business. Together, we’re building a post-conventional organization that favours power distribution and decision-making in a safe and healthy environment. What that means is that you can contribute to other functions (for instance, remuneration, training, even strategic decision-making) to realize your full potential — because you’re more than just a data scientist.
In short, as a member of the Moov AI team, you have the opportunity to experience and have an impact on many things in AI as well as in post-conventional business development.
What Moov AI Brings You
Moov AI is a different kind of company, with clear values that we live by every day. Ultimately, we want every individual to show up to work as their authentic selves—no need for artificial professional identities. Our way of doing things has earned us recognition as the "Best Startup Employer in Canada 2024" by Forbes.

Job requirements
What you bring the team
At Moov AI, senior data scientists aim to deliver a solution that impacts the client's results. We are not theoretical.
- You are dynamic and flexible, able to easily adapt to the rapid changes in the AI industry. You excel in a constantly evolving environment and are ready to take on the challenges of a changing team and an innovative company!
- You demonstrate sufficient versatility to accommodate the client's technological environment.
- You have at least 7 years of direct experience with the various stages of the data science process, from the exploration phase to model deployment.
- Specifically, you understand the difference between designing algorithms for production versus designing algorithms for proof of concept.
- In this sense, unlike many theoretical applications of machine learning, you aim to have an impact on the client and do not focus on excessive optimization.
- Your experience, technical knowledge, and communication skills make you the go-to person for your team; in other words, your colleagues naturally turn to you for technical assistance.
- You can act as the technical pillar of your team, but you can also execute independently.
- If you are familiar with time series, forecasting, or NLP, it's an asset (but not a must).
- You are fluent in both French and English. You communicate well with your team, and you can simplify your expertise and decisions for a non-technical audience.
- Overall, you show resourcefulness, but you also know your limits and when to ask for help.
