Thanks!, I have a BS in CS. I took couple of AI/ML centric courses in my undergrad. I worked on couple of ML centric open source projects, one of them featured on the front page of HN. And I've good stats on kaggle also. I'm applying for a job in top ML firm. I'm fresh grad. Should I apply for Software engineer or research engineer/Data scientist? Is my experience enough for research engineer/Data scientist?
It's hard for me to say without knowing which firm or reading the job description, but to me research engineer implies a PhD level of knowledge. You won't get that from some open source projects and kaggle competitions.
