Job Level

About the role

  • Build, maintain, and optimize production-grade ML pipelines, enabling seamless transitions from experimentation to production.
  • Define and implement strategies for model versioning, rollout, rollback, and lifecycle management to ensure robust and reproducible ML systems
  • Define and enforce serving-layer SLAs – latency, availability, GPU utilization, TTFT, ITL – and build observability and alerting
  • Apply software engineering best practices including testing, CI/CD integration, and reproducibility to ML workflows, improving iteration speed for ML engineers without compromising reliability.
  • Ensure ML systems are secure, cost-efficient, and scalable, partnering with DevOps on infrastructure standards while owning ML-specific operational concerns.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with ML, Data, Product, and DevOps teams to translate ML requirements into production-ready systems and influence technical planning and roadmap decisions.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 5-8+ years of experience in Software Engineering, ML Engineering, Platform Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering with direct ownership of production ML serving systems.
  • Hands-on experience deploying and maintaining LLMs and deep learning models, in production environments.
  • Strong Python skills and software engineering fundamentals with infrastructure depth. Familiarity with ML frameworks (PyTorch, Tensorflow or similar) is preferred.
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure, and familiarity with ML lifecycle tooling, including model registries and experimentation platforms.
  • Familiarity with inference optimization at the hardware and systems level – batching strategies, memory management, quantization tradeoffs, CPU/GPU interaction patterns.
  • Demonstrated ability to reason about tradeoffs between latency, cost, throughput, and reliability at the systems as well as operational level.
  • Experience in high-growth startup environments and an ability to thrive in a fast-paced, evolving technical landscape.
Benefits
  • Equity in the form of stock options
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) plan
  • Flexible PTO and company holidays
  • Fully remote work within the United States
  • Periodic company offsites and team gatherings
