This organization builds and operationalizes enterprise-scale data, analytics, and AI capabilities that do more than inform decisions-they reshape how HR plans, predicts, personalizes, and performs. By unifying data science, employee listening, knowledge management, and responsible AI, HR Data & Intelligence is transforming workforce signals into strategic advantage, ensuring HR is not only insight-led and future-ready, but a trusted steward of ethical, human-centered intelligence at scale.\nAs aPrincipal Data Scientist, you will design, build, and operationalize predictive and prescriptive models that power Johnson & Johnson’s intelligent HR workflows at global scale. This role is responsible for creating model-driven solutions intentionally designed for consumption by both humans and machines-from AI-enabled decision engines and automation to explainable insights embedded in leader and HR experiences.\nYou will work at the intersection of advanced analytics, applied AI, and HR domain expertise, ensuring workforce intelligence is not only accurate and scalable, but actionable, ethical, and trusted. Your work will move beyond insight delivery to directly shaping how decisions are made, automated, and continuously improved across the employee lifecycle.\nKey Responsibilities\nDesign, build, and operationalize predictive models that generate signals, features, and recommendations consumed directly by intelligent systems and decision workflows, as well as by humans through explainable, experience-led interfaces.\n\nEnable end-to-end intelligent workflows by embedding predictive intelligence into products, platforms, and processes-ensuring models are deployed, monitored, and continuously improved in production rather than delivered as standalone analyses.\n\nAct as a technical authority for model-driven data products, contributing to how intelligence is created, validated, governed, and consumed across both human-led and machine-led decision paths.\n\nPartner with product, engineering, and experience teams to ensure human-facing experiences and machine-facing interfaces (signals, features, APIs) are designed together as a single, coherent system.\n\nAdhere to enterprise standards and practices for model explainability, fairness, privacy, and responsible AI, ensuring predictive solutions are trustworthy, auditable, and appropriate for use at global scale.\n\nTranslate ambiguous, complex business problems into scalable analytical and modeling frameworks, guiding when decisions should be automated, augmented, or explicitly human-controlled.\n\nQualifications\nRequired:\nBachelor’s degree inComputer Science, Engineering, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field\n\n5+years of experiencedesigning, building, and deploying predictive or machine-learning models in production environments, where outputs are consumed by systems, workflows,applications, and end users\n\nStrong proficiency in modern data science and ML tooling (e.g., Python, ML frameworks, feature engineering, model evaluation), with a clearunderstanding of how models move from experimentation to operational use\n\nDemonstrated ability to think in terms of signals, features, and decision logic, andtodesignmodels that integrate cleanly into automated or augmented decision workflows\n\nExperience working on complex, scaled data environments, collaborating closely with engineering, product, and platform teams to deliver durable, production-ready solutions\n\nWorking knowledge of model explainability, fairness, privacy, and responsible AI practices, and the discipline to applyenterprise standards consistently when building and deploying models\n\nStrong problem-framing skills, with the ability to translate ambiguous business or system challenges into well-structured modeling approaches without relying on prescriptive requirements\n\nPreferred:\nExperience working within the Databricks data science and analytics platform, including developing, training, and operationalizing models using Databricks notebooks, workflows, and integrated ML capabilities.\n\nPrior experience applying data science or machine learning in an HR or workforce-related domain, with an understanding of HR data structures, constraints, and decision contexts (e.g., employee data, organizational structures, lifecycle events).\n\nAdvanced degree (Master’s or PhD) in a quantitative field or equivalent depth of experience solving complex modeling problems in real-world, production settings.\n\nExperience building intelligence that supports automated or semi-automated decisioning, recommendations, or optimization in large, distributed organizations.\n\nFamiliarity with deploying models alongside APIs, data products, or platforms where humans and machines interact with the same underlying intelligence.\n\nOther:\nThis position is located inBangalore, Indiafull-time and may require up to 10% travel, both domestic and international.\nJohnson & Johnson is an Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity Employer.
