What you'll buildSince 2018, we have delivered the most trusted AI systems operating in real-world use cases-providing a layer of assurance underneath hundreds of deployed models that monitors performance, manages drift, and sustains systems long after they leave the lab.
As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer, you will be both a core contributor and a customer-facing technical leader. You'll initiate the design, build, and delivery of systems-from data shaping and analytics to end-user delivery. Customers and engineers will bring you the hard problems. You'll turn them into working systems and see them through to execution. The work will take you into the field, where direct customer input will shape what we build next.
What we're looking for- An advanced degree in data science, machine learning, computer science, or a related discipline and 10+ years of relevant experience
- Proven ability to lead, manage, and mentor cross-functional engineering teams across office, remote, and customer environments
- Demonstrated experience defining, scoping, planning, and driving execution plans for complex, production-level technical solutions
- Strong communication skills and a track record of translating complex technical topics with clarity and professionalism to both internal engineering teams and external stakeholders
- Broad proficiency in programming languages common to machine learning, with excellence in Python and at least one systems programming language
- Proficiency in the design and delivery of algorithms, data structures, and production analytics and in the use of design patterns in cloud environments
- Proficiency with modern software engineering tools and processes
- Active Secret (or above) US security clearance and US citizenship
The following isn't required, but we'd love to see it:
- Experience with K8s and horizontally scaled architectures
- Knowledge of NATS, Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar
- Experience building AI agents and workflows
- Experience with complex and varied data types
- Experience delivering technology solutions in secure government environments
You will be remote or hybrid out of our Austin, Texas, office. This role requires travel up to 25% of the time.
