Edwards Lifesciences is expanding its global technology capabilities with the launch of a new IT Innovation Hub in Pune, India. The Hub strengthens the technology foundation that supports our business worldwide, working in close partnership with teams across regions to deliver reliable, high-quality solutions at scale. Designed as a long-term investment, the Pune Hub will advance newer digital capabilities such as automation, data, AI, and cloud, and will include roles spanning end user services, application development, and enterprise platform teams. Together, these teams will help Edwards operate more efficiently and accelerate innovation in support of our mission of advancing patient care. This role is responsible for understanding business gaps/opportunities that can be resolved using AI/ML solutions. Besides, this role requires you to design, develop and test quick AI/ML prototypes that addresses identified business gaps.

How you will make an impact:

• Development and deployment of scalable and efficient AI/ML models both for prototyping purposes as well as for production deployment.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (data scientists, software engineers, product managers, business leads) to define requirements and ideate solutions using AI/ML frameworks.
• Participate in agile development processes, including sprint planning, daily stand-ups and demo prototypes or milestone updates when necessary.
• Follow existing tools, standards and architectural best practices to ensure quality and scalability of the software is preserved.
• Maintain, operate and provide technical support on the solutions that have been deployed into production.
• Drive research and experimentation to explore new AI/ML techniques, tools, and frameworks.
• Ensure code and model development are well-documented and follow best engineering practices.
• Other incidental duties.
