Full Job Description
What you'll Do
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, and Data Science teams to define problems, scope feasibility, and translate research into shipped experiences.
  • Design, prototype, and ship models powering product features, from predictive and ranking to generative and agentic systems, including RAG, embeddings, fine-tuning, and in-product copilots for creative use cases.
  • Own evaluation end to end: define what "good" means, build offline and online evaluation harnesses, and detect quality regressions in production.
  • Build the data and MLOps foundations that keep models reliable: feature pipelines, experiment tracking, versioning, CI/CD, automated retraining, and monitoring.

What you need to succeed

Minimum Requirements:
  • Bachelor's in a quantitative field (CS, ML, Data Science, Engineering, or similar) or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years building, deploying, and operating ML systems in production at scale.
  • Strong core ML foundation: feature engineering and shipping supervised/unsupervised models for prediction, ranking, recommendation, or personalization.
  • Working depth in modern GenAI on top of that: LLMs or generative models in production (RAG, embeddings, fine-tuning, or agent design).
  • Fluency in Python and SQL, and broader ML tooling and infrastructure ecosystem.
  • Rigorous offline and online evaluation and experimentation design and operation.
  • Ability to frame problems before modeling, and to communicate technical work clearly to non-technical Product and Design partners.


Preferred Requirements:
  • Master's or PhD in a quantitative discipline.
  • Background in consumer product analytics, especially in creative tools, SaaS, or subscription businesses.
  • Experience with recommendation systems or personalization especially for visual or creative content.
  • Experience deploying and monitoring models in Databricks (MLflow, Feature Store, model serving) or a comparable production ML environment.
