Position Description

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will collaborate with data scientists, product managers, and data engineers to operationalize machine learning models in production and manage the lifecycle of artificial intelligence algorithms on a variety of domains. You will develop and deploy novel approaches to optimize existing machine learning systems to maximize their business value.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Architect, build, maintain, and improve new and existing suite of algorithms and their underlying systems.
• Automate machine learning pipelines and monitor and optimize machine learning solutions.
• Implement end-to-end solutions for batch and real-time algorithms along with requisite tooling around monitoring, logging, automated testing, performance tuning, and A/B testing.
• Use your entrepreneurial spirit to identify new opportunities to optimize business processes, improve consumer experiences, and prototype solutions to demonstrate value.
• Work closely with data scientists and analysts to create and deploy new product features online and in mobile apps.
• Establish scalable, efficient, automated processes for data analyses, model development, validation and implementation.
• Write efficient and well-organized software to ship products in an iterative, continual-release environment.
• Contribute to and promote good software engineering practices across the team.
• Mentor and educate team members to adopt best practices in writing and maintaining production machine learning code.
• Actively contribute to and re-use community best practices.
• Monitor, debug, track, and resolve production issues.
• Work with project managers to ensure that projects proceed on time and on budget.
• Collaborate with Technical Product Managers to ensure proper tracking of algorithmic performance KPIs and prioritize performance improvements based on effort and impact. Complete other responsibilities as assigned.
