You will apply data analysis, machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), and generative AI to improve the quality, coverage, and timeliness of PitchBook data.\nYou will take end-to-end responsibility for data science initiatives, from problem definition, data exploration, and success metrics through model development, evaluation, production deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement. Your work may include large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic workflows, and other information-extraction techniques.\nYou will collaborate with Product Managers, Machine Learning Engineers, Software Engineers, and domain experts to deliver scalable solutions. You will remain accountable for model quality and business impact after launching by evaluating performance, investigating regressions, and guiding improvements through data and experimentation. You will also contribute through peer reviews, reproducible work, documentation, and knowledge sharing.\nYou will join a multidisciplinary team of Data Scientists and Machine Learning Engineers developing AI and ML capabilities for PitchBook's data collection pipelines. Data Scientists own the analytical and modeling lifecycle and partner with engineering teams to operationalize, scale, and maintain successful solutions.\nPrimary Job Responsibilities:\nEnd-to-End Data Science Ownership: Own extraction and enrichment problems from discovery through production and continuous improvement. Define the problem, select data and methods, establish success criteria, evaluate results, and monitor outcomes\nProblem Formulation & Data Strategy: Translate business requirements into measurable data science problems. Explore structured and unstructured data, identify quality and source-variability issues, and define training, validation, test, and labeling requirements with domain partners\nModel Development & Experimentation: Design and optimize NLP, machine learning, and LLM solutions for document understanding and information extraction\nExtraction Solution Development: Build extraction workflows using document parsing, preprocessing, chunking, feature engineering, embeddings, RAG, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, and agentic approaches\nEvaluation & Error Analysis: Create representative evaluation datasets and metrics such as precision, recall, F1, field-level accuracy, coverage, confidence, and business impact. Use error analysis to guide model, prompt, data, and workflow improvements\nProductionization & Model Ownership: Develop robust, testable model components and partner with ML Engineers to integrate solutions into production. Monitor quality, investigate regressions or drift, and prioritize improvements based on customer and business impact\nTechnical Trade-offs & Quality: Evaluate accuracy, coverage, latency, scalability, robustness, and cost. Recommend approaches using empirical evidence, write maintainable code, and document datasets, assumptions, experiments, limitations, and results\nCollaboration & Innovation: Partner with Product, Data Collection, Engineering, Platform, and domain teams. Evaluate advances in NLP, generative AI, LLMs, and information extraction, and apply methods that deliver measurable value\nSkills and Qualifications:\nBachelor's or Master's degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Engineering, or a related quantitative field\n2+ years of experience in applied data science, machine learning, NLP, or information extraction\nDemonstrated experience taking a data science or machine learning solution from problem definition and experimentation through production launch and ongoing improvement\nExperience analyzing large, complex structured and unstructured datasets, including exploration, preprocessing, feature engineering, sampling, labeling, and dataset construction\nHands-on experience developing document intelligence or information-extraction solutions using techniques such as transformers, embeddings, RAG, LLMs, prompt engineering, fine-tuning, or agentic workflows\nStrong understanding of experimental design, statistical reasoning, model evaluation, error analysis, and metrics such as precision, recall, F1, field-level accuracy, confidence, and coverage\nProficiency in Python and SQL, with experience using pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, and PyTorch or TensorFlow\nExperience with Hugging Face, LangChain, or comparable NLP and LLM frameworks; ability to write maintainable, testable model and data-processing code\nFamiliarity with cloud ML environments, version control, automated testing, model monitoring, containers, or data orchestration tools is beneficial\nStrong communication and collaboration skills, including the ability to explain model behavior, limitations, trade-offs, and recommendations; experience with financial data, document intelligence, or large-scale data collection is a plus\nWorking Conditions\nThe job conditions for this position are in a standard office setting. Employees in this position use PC and phones on an ongoing basis throughout the day. Limited corporate travel may be required to remote offices or other business meetings and events.\nMorningstar's hybrid work environment gives you the opportunity to collaborate in-person each week as we've found that we're at our best when we're purposely together on a regular basis. In most of our locations, our hybrid work model is four days in-office each week. A range of other benefits are also available to enhance flexibility as needs change. No matter where you are, you'll have tools and resources to engage meaningfully with your global colleagues.\nI10_MstarIndiaPvtLtd Morningstar India Private Ltd.
