Why this hire matters
Why This Hire Matters
Biotech companies need to bridge scientific research and commercial product development within regulatory frameworks. ML engineers who can take a model from research to production are rare, most candidates are strong in either modeling or engineering but not both. Chennai's talent market is more relationship-driven than Bangalore's, referrals and network-based hiring outperform cold outreach significantly a mis-hire at the senior level doesn't just waste a salary, it erodes team trust, introduces architectural debt, and can trigger attrition of other strong engineers
