About the Job

Requirements

  • Strong professional experience building, hardening, and operating machine-learning systems in production.
  • High proficiency in Python, with rigorous testing, code review, and continuous integration and continuous delivery practices.
  • Strong SQL skills and hands-on experience with a cloud data warehouse and dbt or a similar framework.
  • Experience building reliable, idempotent batch pipelines with an orchestrator such as Prefect, Airflow, or Dagster.
  • Practical experience training and deploying PyTorch and gradient-boosted models such as LightGBM or XGBoost, including GPU training.
  • Experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure hyperscalers.
  • Experience with observability for data and machine-learning systems, including metrics, logging, drift detection, and alerting, and participating in on-call.
  • Ability to balance research support, platform work, and operational priorities.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with the Data Science R&D team to turn prototypes into production-grade code, shaping models for deployability.
  • Refactor existing pipelines and consolidate separate forecasting systems into a shared backend, validating output parity before migrating customers.
  • Extend and optimize internal machine-learning libraries so data scientists can build, test, and deploy models quickly and consistently.
  • Build automated, reproducible training, retraining, and batch inference pipelines, including backtesting, hyperparameter tuning, and distributed workloads.
  • Design idempotent, retry-safe orchestration with data validation gates, graceful fallbacks, and clear service-level objectives for freshness and on-time delivery.
  • Profile and remove memory, compute, and GPU bottlenecks, and tune warehouse queries and compute for cost as systems scale.
  • Own experiment tracking, the model registry, and versioning of data, features, and models, with automated promotion gates, shadow runs, and fast rollback.
  • Build reusable feature pipelines with point-in-time correctness, training and inference consistency, and clear lineage.
  • Monitor data drift, prediction drift, and model accuracy; own pipeline alerting; participate in on-call; and lead blameless postmortems.
  • Make pipelines configuration-driven for low-touch customer onboarding, with strict per-customer data isolation and infrastructure as code.
  • Set the testing strategy for machine-learning code, improve continuous integration and delivery, write design documents and runbooks, and mentor teammates.
  • Lead projects end to end, from design document through deployment.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with feature stores, data contracts, or data quality frameworks such as Great Expectations or dbt tests.
  • Familiarity with shadow, canary, and champion/challenger deployment patterns.
  • Experience with multi-tenant data platforms with strict per-customer data isolation.
  • Background in forecasting, supply chain, planning, or analytics applications.
