This role focuses on developing and implementing advanced AI and machine learning models to enhance our stainless steel and ferrochrome production processes. The successful candidate will work closely with various stakeholders to optimize production, improve product quality, and streamline raw material procurement. \n\nWe work in close collaboration with development and R&D engineers at our stainless steel and ferrochrome production sites. Part of the job is to communicate data analysis and modelling results to stakeholders with various backgrounds. Also knowledge from manufacturing industries helps in this position. For example, familiarity with such concepts as statistical process control (SPC), six sigma or quality assurance in manufacturing industries is beneficial. \n\nWe have also projects with other business units, for example with sales, so expertise e.g. in market forecasting, pricing optimization, document extraction and similar use cases is a benefit. \n\nKey Responsibilities: \n\nDevelop AI and machine learning models for production optimization, end product quality, energy use and raw material optimization. \n\nCreate time series and computer vision algorithms for stainless steel and ferrochrome production. \n\nProductize ML/AI models by integrating them into other applications or standalone user interfaces. \n\nCommunicate effectively with stakeholders and participate in project planning, including planning of epics, features, and user stories. \n\nResponsibilities: \n\nMaintain high code quality. \n\nParticipate in application, PI, and sprint planning. \n\nAdhere to best architectural and cybersecurity standards. \n\nRequirements: \n\nMaster's or Bachelor's degree in a relevant field. Doctoral degree is an advantage. \n\nAt least two years practical experience in data-science domain. \n\nAt least one of the following: expertise in AI/LLMs (incl. deep learning), machine learning, optimization, statistics or computer vision. \n\nKnowledge of Python, R or similar programming languages is mandatory. \n\nEnthusiasm using AI coding tools. Experience in extensive use of AI tools in modelling and software development is an advantage. \n\nWorking knowledge of basic developer tools (e.g. version control) and software development principles is required. \n\nExperience in deploying and managing AI/ML models in production is an advantage. We use mainly Databricks and Azure to host our models and applications. \n\nYou don't need to master all tools and skills mentioned above, but working experience with programming languages is mandatory. \n\nStakeholders: Collaborate with other EIP teams, R&D engineers, QA engineers, and development engineers from Steel Melting shop, Hot Rolling Mill, and Cold Rolling Mill departments in Tornio. \n\nFor more information, please contact Head of Data Science, Mikko Havimo, mikko.havimo(at)outokumpu.com or TA partner Miikka Enbuske, miikka.enbuske(at)outokumpu.com \n\nIf you are passionate about leveraging data science to drive innovation in stainless steel production, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity. \n\nApply latest 30th of October 2026. \n\nThe selected candidate will be required to pass a security clearance vetting and health check (including drug tests) before commencing employment","description_format":"text","description_chars":3383,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cybersecurity","Manufacturing","Brewing & Beer"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-11T22:55:28Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":64,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.711,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":8,"expected_fill_days":13,"reasons":["seen:8","win:mid","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-14T06:34:16Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/outokumpu-data-scientist","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/outokumpu-data-scientist.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-14T14:49:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":18404,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1858803},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1858803"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Foutokumpu-data-scientist"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Foutokumpu-data-scientist"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Foutokumpu-data-scientist"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/outokumpu-data-scientist\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Foutokumpu-data-scientist"}]}
