Machine Learning Engineer DLRL
Job Summary
The ePlane Company is at the forefront of Indias urban air mobility revolution. Incubated at IIT Madras we are a deep-tech startup dedicated to designing and building the worlds most compact electric flying taxi. Our mission is to make door-to-door flying a reality drastically reducing commute times and decongesting our cities for a cleaner greener future. Were a passionate team of engineers designers and visionaries working on cutting-edge technology and were looking for brilliant minds to help us take flight.
We are looking for a person with a deep understanding of Machine Learning and Reinforcement learning to develop tools that help us an organisation engineer better systems and also build the platform software that will allow the next generation of mobility to thrive. This person will develop research and deploy ML algorithms across different engineering disciplines and build tools for routing scheduling future mobility transportation networks involving hundreds of aircraft in shared regions.
Build and maintain data pipelines for model training validation and continuous retraining
Develop training pipelines architecture and prototyping for ML/RL algorithms
Work on productising research prototypes
Conduct experiments to benchmark new techniques and evaluate model behavior
Develop systematic evaluation methodology: test sets accuracy metrics citation quality scoring false positive/negative analysis
Deploy AI tools to engineering teams with structured pilots baseline measurement and documented adoption outcomes
Build and operate multi-step agentic workflows connecting engineering data sources for reasoning
3 years ML engineering with a focus on deep learning/reinforcement learning
Strong ML stack: PyTorch or TensorFlow Pandas NumPy SciPy
Strong programming skills in Python/C
