Full Job Description
The work

Machine Learning Engineers make machine learning and AI models reproducible, deployable, scalable, and supportable. They build the path from training data and experimentation to a versioned model service that can be released, monitored, retrained, and retired without guesswork.

The role centers on the model lifecycle and the platform beneath it. Machine Learning Engineers automate training and validation, manage features and model artifacts, optimize inference, implement machine learning operations (MLOps), and watch for changes in data, behavior, performance, reliability, and cost. They create the shared tooling that lets data scientists and application engineers move models into production safely.

What you'll build
• Reproducible training, validation, tuning, and retraining pipelines with versioned data, code, parameters, environments, and model artifacts.
• Model-serving systems and APIs designed for appropriate latency, throughput, availability, scaling, and rollback.
• Feature pipelines, feature stores, model registries, lineage records, approval workflows, and automated release controls.
• Monitoring and alerting for data quality, drift, model performance, fairness, infrastructure health, latency, and cost.
• Reusable libraries, templates, environments, and delivery pipelines that give data scientists a tested path from experiment to production.

Who you are

You are comfortable at the seam between modeling and software engineering. You can inspect a model, harden a pipeline, diagnose a production failure, and improve the platform so the same class of problem is easier to prevent next time.

You value repeatability over heroics. You work closely with data scientists on model behavior, data engineers on reliable inputs, AI Engineers on application integration, and platform and security teams on the environment in which the model runs.

What you bring
• Strong programming and software-engineering practice, including testing, version control, packaging, automation, and production debugging.
• Working knowledge of model development, evaluation metrics, feature engineering, data splitting, tuning, and the limits of different modeling approaches.
• Experience with training and inference pipelines, containers, cloud or on-premises compute, artifact management, and automated deployment.
• Practical MLOps experience with model registries, lineage, reproducibility, monitoring, drift analysis, retraining, release controls, and rollback.
• The ability to balance model quality with reliability, interpretability, security, privacy, latency, throughput, and cost.
