About the Role

Are you ready to independently design and implement impactful machine learning solutions, driving product innovation and mentoring emerging talent?

This role is for an experienced professional ready to take ownership of machine learning projects, from conceptualization to production. In this role you will apply in-depth knowledge to solve complex problems, improve existing systems, and contribute significantly to product development. This position requires strong analytical skills, a proactive approach to problem-solving, and the ability to act as a valuable resource for less experienced team members.

What You Will Do

• Independently identify, train, and refine deep learning models to solve real-world problems at scale, overseeing the full lifecycle from conception to deployment. Curate and maintain effective datasets, ensuring robust data coverage and quality for diverse industry use cases, directly impacting model performance.

• Work closely with teams who bring domain expertise, translating ambiguous needs into clear and actionable ML tasks.

• Contribute significantly to MLOps best practices, including containerization, model versioning, and robust monitoring, ensuring you know how to look for clues when models break.

• Apply advanced machine learning and statistical modeling techniques (e.g., decision trees, logistic regression, Bayesian analysis) to solve complex problems and significantly improve product/system performance and data accuracy.

• Conduct thorough testing, debugging, and optimization of ML models and associated code, ensuring high efficiency, scalability, and reliability in production environments.

• Act as a technical resource and provide informal guidance to less experienced colleagues, sharing best practices, fostering their development, and contributing to team knowledge.

• Collaborate effectively with product and service teams to translate complex business requirements into robust technical solutions and actionable insights, driving innovation.

What Skills & Experience You Should Bring

• 3+ years of relevant experience

• In-depth conceptual and practical knowledge of machine learning and deep learning principles, including model selection, training, and evaluation methodologies.

• Proven track record as a Machine Learning Engineer or similar role, with evidence of production-ready ML work, including shipped projects, open-source contributions, or strong GitHub portfolios.

• Fluency in Python and deep learning frameworks (PyTorch is a must, TensorFlow is welcome), along with strong familiarity with NumPy, pandas, and scikit-learn.

• Experience with Linux and bash scripting.

• Solid grounding in data structures, data modeling, and software architecture, with an understanding of how code fits together and how to maintain its tidiness.

• Strong algorithmic and problem-solving skills, capable of tackling complex challenges with a structured approach and knowing when to iterate rapidly and deploy effective solutions.
