The role of the data scientist is changing. Some organizations are splitting the role into more narrowly focused jobs, while others are broadening it. The latter approach, known as the Full Stack Data Scientist, is derived from the concept of a full stack software engineer, with this role often including software engineering tasks. In particular, one of the key functions of a full stack data scientist is to take machine learning models and get them into production inside software. So, what separates projects from production?

Savin Goyal is the Co-Founder & CTO at Outerbounds. In addition to his work at Outerbounds, Savin is the creator of the open source machine learning management platform Metaflow. Previously Savin has worked as a Software Engineer at Netflix and LinkedIn.

In the episode, Richie and Savin explore the definition of production in data science, steps to move from internal projects to production, the lifecycle of a machine learning project, success stories in data science, challenges in quality control, Metaflow, scalability and robustness in production, AI and MLOps, advice for organizations and much more.
