About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to join a cross-functional team focused on growing our product algorithmic recommendations. This role involves evolving, improving, and innovating machine learning and AI capabilities across the platform. As a Senior Engineer, you will drive architecture, write scalable code, mentor engineers, and challenge teams to achieve excellence. You will collaborate with internal and external teams, embracing inner-sourced development and taking ownership from discovery to production.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with Data Scientists, Product Managers, and Backend Engineers to bridge the gap between model development and production systems.
  • Lead the architectural design of end-to-end ML systems, including data ingestion, training pipelines, inference, and monitoring.
  • Transform data science prototypes into robust, scalable, and secure production software, owning the 'path to production'.
  • Drive the adoption of MLOps best practices (CI/CD for ML, model versioning, feature stores) to accelerate feedback loops.
  • Communicate ML system complexities (e.g., latency vs. accuracy trade-offs) to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Build and maintain a strong network across Data and Engineering organizations to ensure seamless ML system integration.
  • Lead projects, mentor peers, and advocate for engineering excellence within the data science domain.

Requirements

  • Proficiency in Python and a strong understanding of software engineering principles (OO design, patterns, testing) applied to Machine Learning.
  • Demonstrable experience designing and operating ML systems in production, including familiarity with serving patterns (e.g., REST APIs, batch inference, event-driven).
  • Experience with orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Dagster).
  • Experience with cloud-native ML platforms (e.g., AWS SageMaker, GCP Vertex AI).
  • Ability to influence decision-making regarding infrastructure and tooling, balancing 'build vs. buy' discussions.
  • Strong knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
  • Strong knowledge of containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).
  • Familiarity with data engineering fundamentals (SQL, distributed data processing) to debug and optimize data flows.
  • A proactive mindset to automate manual processes.
  • A passion for improving the developer experience for Data Scientists.
