  • Select appropriate features, algorithms, metrics, and validation strategies
  • Build reproducible data and machine-learning pipelines
  • Deploy models for batch or real-time inference
  • Develop and maintain infrastructure for reliable model serving
  • Monitor model performance, data quality, drift, latency, and operational health
  • Communicate findings and collaborate with stakeholders, engineers, and domain experts
  • Actively models and promotes Identity Digital's core values through day-to-day interactions, behaviors, and decision-making
  • Other duties as assigned

Who You Are / What You Bring
  • 3+ years of experience in developing, deploying, and monitoring production data / ML pipelines
  • Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering or other quantitative field is required; Advanced degree (Masters or PhD) in AI/ML preferred
  • Deep technical knowledge in several of the following topics: anomaly detection, time-series analysis, structured and unstructured data processing, causal inference, reinforcement learning, embeddings and vector databases, large language models, and modern MLOps / LLMOps practices
  • Professional development experience with the following tools and platforms: Airflow, Argo Workflows, cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Databricks, Snowflake), major cloud providers (AWS, GCP), Git, Kubernetes, MLFlow, Pandas, Polars, PyTorch, TensorFlow, SHAP and leveraging AI / LLMs.
  • Strong programming proficiency in Python and SQL; familiarity with Shell scripting is a plus
  • Exceptional problem-solving skills with the ability to diagnose and resolve issues from limited or ambiguous information
  • Creative and strategic thinker with a strong analytical foundation and a focus on measurable impact
  • Collaborative communicator who excels in cross-functional environments and builds strong working relationships
  • Highly organized with excellent time management, attention to detail, and execution discipline
  • Knowledge of the domain name industry or digital identity ecosystem is a plus
  • Ability to travel as needed
  • Ability to work across time zones as part of a global organization as needed
  • Reliable transportation to the workplace

Physical Requirements
  • Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer
