We are seeking a Responsible AI Data Scientist to help drive FactSet’s Responsible AI (RAI) strategy. This role combines data science expertise, statistical evaluation, and risk management with the ability to work across teams to ensure that AI solutions are developed and deployed responsibly.
You’ll design and run experiments, develop risk reduction tools, and participate in our RAI risk assessment process. Working closely with project teams, product managers, and software engineers, you will play a central role in embedding RAI principles into our products, processes, and culture.
What You’ll Do
- Evaluate and manage risks: Participate in the RAI intake and risk assessment process, identifying product deficiencies and risks.
- Statistical analysis & modeling: Apply data science methods to evaluate AI/ML models, their performance, and potential biases.
- Experimentation & best practices: Suggest experiments, define standards, and build/run risk reduction tools that help teams meet RAI standards.
- Tooling & automation: Work with engineering teams to create tools for areas of high risk (e.g. model explainability, bias detection).
- Stakeholder collaboration: Partner with project teams and business units to ensure corrective actions are implemented.
- Process development: Help establish the RAI intake process and contribute to setting up the risk assessment framework as a product capability.
- Training & guidance: Support teams in adopting RAI principles and practices.
Minimum Requirements
- Data Science experience or degree.
- AI/ML technical background, including experience with LLMs.
- Python programming skills.
- 3+Experience in stakeholder management across technical and non-technical teams.
- Awareness of the legislative landscape and regulations related to AI and data privacy
Critical Skills
- Strong ability to evaluate and explain models (statistical and ML-based).
- Experience building or using risk assessment frameworks for AI/ML.
- Strong understanding of RAI, MLOps, and Data Science fundamentals.
- Excellent collaboration, communication, and project management skills.
Nice to Have
- Experience with PyTorch or other ML frameworks.
- Prior experience in risk management or compliance.
- Experience building explainability tools or model monitoring systems.
