- Develop and deploy ML models, inference services, and end-to-end pipelines.
- Build AI-powered application workflows, including LLM-based features, retrieval and ranking pipelines, and other intelligent services.
- Partner closely with software engineers, product teams, and data scientists to bring ML and AI capabilities into production.
- Create evaluation, monitoring, and observability frameworks to measure system quality, reliability, and business impact.
- Improve performance across latency, throughput, scalability, and cost.
- Build safeguards and validation layers to improve output quality, reliability, and trustworthiness.
- Contribute to architecture decisions and best practices across ML and AI systems.
- Troubleshoot production issues across model pipelines, data flows, and AI services.
- Mentor junior engineers and help raise the bar for technical execution across the team.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in machine learning engineering, AI engineering, or a related technical field.
- Creative and strategic problem-solver: Able to break down complex challenges, identify practical opportunities, and develop innovative solutions that drive measurable impact.
