Job Summary
You will
Lead and grow the ML Dataset Platform team as both its technical lead and people manager: set the technical direction define the roadmap hire and mentor engineers.
Define the APIs tools and storage formats for Waabis ML datasets balancing maximal reuse of data and tooling against the specific needs of each training workload.
Build the tooling to manage datasets at scale including versioning and efficient incremental updates without full rebuilds.
Design the APIs that let teams express training-time transformations along the continuum between fully reproducible ahead-of-time ETL and dynamic transformation within data loaders.
Own the common dataloading tools used across workloads including observability into bottlenecks and the throughput of training jobs.
Streamline data access for multi-cloud training so that datasets are available as needed with predictable cost and latency.
Make data lineage a first-class fully automatic property of every dataset from raw data through to the model trained on them.
Partner with the ML Training Platform team on the boundary between data and training infrastructure and with the ML development teams on transitioning shared-dataset tooling into the new platform.
Drive adoption: work directly with model teams to migrate their training data onto the platform and feed what you learn back into your teams roadmap.
Qualifications:
Deep ML dataset experience: You have designed and built large-scale data infrastructure for ML training (storage formats dataset versioning ETL dataloading) and understand the performance characteristics of petabyte-scale sensor or multimodal data.
Strong software engineering and implementation: You have very strong Python skills and are comfortable in PyTorch training loops; you have strong software-engineering fundamentals and experience with distributed systems cloud storage and data processing frameworks (e.g. Spark Ray Beam).
Proven technical leadership: You have led a platform or infrastructure effort used by multiple teams defined its APIs and driven adoption across an organization.

Bonus:
Experience with ML data infrastructure in autonomous driving or robotics (multi-sensor logs LiDAR camera HD maps).
Experience with columnar and tensor storage formats (e.g. Parquet Lance WebDataset Zarr) and dataset versioning tools.
Experience with multi-cloud or hybrid training environments and the data-movement challenges that come with them.
Experience with data lineage metadata catalogs or feature-store systems.
