About the Client

The work runs in 8 Agile-Scrum sprints over 16 weeks, fully remote, with a small senior team operating end to end.

 

About the Role

We are looking for a part-time AI/ML Engineer to design and build the AI component of the platform: a hybrid rule-based plus ML system that maps contractor free-text into a 4-tier SAP catalog hierarchy, flags anomalies, and learns from operator corrections.

  • 6 to 10 hours per week during active phases

  • 100% remote, Eastern Time overlap for gate and sprint reviews

  • BYOD

- Author the AI/ML Architecture Design Document

- Recommend an accuracy threshold for the catalog mapping engine.

- Build the 4-tier catalog code mapping engine for SAP catalog types.

- Implement the AI anomaly detection module.

- Design and implement the "Train Model" feedback loop where operator corrections retrain the model.

- Wrap the model as a microservice for the main app.

 

What You Need to Succeed in This Role

- NLP / text classification in Python (scikit-learn or HuggingFace transformers).

- AI architecture documentation: a clean model design doc readable by non-technical reviewers.

- Rule-based NLP (keyword extraction, regex, scoring logic).

- Anomaly detection in tabular data.

- Python data science stack (pandas, numpy, scikit-learn, optionally spaCy).

- Model feedback loop design.

- API / microservice wrapping of an ML model.

 

Nice to have: precision/recall trade-off framing for catalog mapping; SAP catalog code domain knowledge.
