About UptimeAI: UptimeAI is leading the way in predictive analytics and AI-driven solutions to optimize operational uptime and reduce downtime for industrial and enterprise clients. Our innovative platform harnesses cutting-edge data science to deliver actionable insights, ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability. UptimeAI uniquely combines Artificial Intelligence with Subject Matter Knowledge from 200+ years of cumulative experience to explain interrelations across upstream/downstream equipment, adapt to changes, identify problems, and give prescriptive diagnosis like a human expert would. Recently receiving a funding round led by WestBridge Capital, UptimeAI is prime for global expansion Role : Lead / Principal Data Scientist Location: Bangalore- Karnataka (Hybrid) Experience: 5+ years Department: Data Science ROLE OVERVIEW We are looking for individuals who sit at the intersection of Data Science and Physical Sciences. You understand that industrial data isn't just rows in a database—it represents thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and mechanical stress. The candidate should be capable of translating business problems into scalable AI solutions, leveraging creative thinking and first-principles problem solving. This role requires someone who can: · Build and deploy production-grade AI systems, not just prototypes · Design agentic workflows that can reason, adapt, and take actions in dynamic environments · Work with noisy, incomplete, and real-time industrial data to derive meaningful insights · Collaborate closely with domain experts (e.g., operations, reliability, or plant engineers) to create context-aware AI solutions · Demonstrate innovative thinking in solving ambiguous problems where standard approaches may not apply KEY RESPONSIBILITIES · Be a part of the design, development, and deployment of advanced AI/ML models for predictive maintenance, process optimization, and industrial performance intelligence · Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and
