About the role
We are looking for an experienced engineer to join MLF. While your initial focus will be building self-service tooling for the model lifecycle, particularly model deployments, serving, and monitoring, you will also have opportunities to work across the entire machine learning lifecycle. As a platform engineer, you will work with our internal customers to understand their needs and translate them into sustainable software solutions.
We are looking for someone who has experience as a machine learning engineer or a software engineer, as we operate at the intersection of those two roles. We prefer candidates who also have experience building platforms. Beyond that:
You will
- Design and build tools and systems that make data scientists happier and more productive
- Work with data science and engineering teams across Block, Cash and Square, to understand their needs and solve their problems
- Lead architectural and design discussions to ensure our platform is modular, scalable, fault tolerant, and sustainably built
- Mentor your teammates and assist engineers on other teams who integrate with our platform
- Use your machine learning knowledge by providing insightful feedback
- Participate in an oncall rotation; maintain reliability standards while ensuring the team's oncall rotation is sustainable
You have
- 8+ years of combined experience in software engineering and machine learning engineering
- 1+ years of experience with the ML lifecycle, such as feature engineering, model training, etc.
- Strong technical judgment and meaningful experience handling complex technical concepts
- Experience with large-scale distributed systems built around ML
- A track record of healthy collaboration with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders
- Preferred: experience building machine learning platforms or infrastructure
