Type: Remote, Full-time
Role Overview
We’re hiring a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to architect, build, and deploy high-performance machine learning systems that power technology stack. You will work across the entire ML lifecycle—from processing massive volumes of data to developing and deploying low-latency models. You must possess a strong hybrid skill set: deep expertise in applied machine learning combined with production-grade software engineering skills. You will not just build models in notebooks; you will write scalable, production-ready code, design real-time inference APIs, and ensure your systems meet strict latency and high-throughput requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Scale Data Engineering & Feature Pipelines: Process and extract features from massive, highly sparse datasets using SQL, Python, and distributed computing frameworks (e.g., Spark, Ray). Architect offline and online feature pipelines. Manage real-time feature computation and low-latency feature stores ensuring zero online/offline skew. Perform rigorous missingness analysis, leakage checks, and handle high-cardinality categorical variables safely.
- Core ML & Deep Learning Development: Train, tune, and scale supervised learning models, utilizing advanced gradient boosting (XGBoost, LightGBM, CatBoost) and Factorization Machines. Design and implement Deep Learning architectures for structured/recommendation data using PyTorch or TensorFlow. Apply rigorous tabular modeling practices.
- Productionization, MLOps, & System Engineering: Write clean, object-oriented, and modular production code. Transition models from Python research environments to high-performance serving environments. Design and maintain robust MLOps pipelines: automated model retraining, versioning, shadow deployments, and CI/CD for machine learning. Monitor production models for data drift, concept drift, and performance degradation in real-time.
- Evaluation & Experimentation: Design rigorous A/B and multivariate tests to measure the true business incrementality of ML models. Choose appropriate offline metrics and bridge them to online business KPIs.
Success in This Role Looks Like
- You deliver models that perform well and move business metrics.
- Your work is reproducible and production-aware: clear data lineage, robust evaluation, and a credible path to deployment/monitoring.
- Stakeholders trust your judgment in selecting methods and communicating uncertainty honestly.
Required Qualifications
- 5–8+ years of experience as a Machine Learning Engineer or Software Engineer focusing on ML systems.
- Strong software engineering fundamentals. Expert-level Python and strong proficiency in a compiled or high-performance language.
- Deep experience deploying machine learning models into highly concurrent, low-latency production environments.
- Hands-on experience with big data processing and complex SQL queries.
- Proven track record of shipping both tree-based models and neural networks to production.
- Solid grasp of statistics, hypothesis testing, and rigorous A/B experiment design.
Nice-to-Have
- Experience designing agentic workflows or utilizing LLMs to automate ad creative generation.
