Job Description

Role Description:

We are seeking a Sr Machine Learning EngineerAmgens senior individual-contributor authority on building and scaling end-to-end machine-learning and generative-AI platforms. Sitting at the intersection of engineering excellence and data-science enablement you will design the core services infrastructure and governance controls that allow hundreds of practitioners to prototype deploy and monitor modelsclassical ML deep learning and LLMssecurely and cost-effectively. Acting as a player-coach you will establish platform strategy define technical standards and partner with DevOps Security Compliance and Product teams to deliver a frictionless enterprise-grade AI developer experience.

Roles & Responsibilities:

  • Engineer end-to-end ML pipelinesdata ingestion feature engineering training hyper-parameter optimization evaluation registration and automated promotionusing Kubeflow SageMaker Pipelines Open AI SDK or equivalent MLOps stacks.
  • Harden research code into production-grade micro-services packaging models in Docker/Kubernetes and exposing secure REST gRPC or event-driven APIs for consumption by downstream applications.
  • Build and maintain full-stack AI applications by integrating model services with lightweight UI components workflow engines or business-logic layers so insights reach users with sub-second latency.
  • Optimize performance and cost at scaleselecting appropriate algorithms (gradient-boosted trees transformers time-series models classical statistics) applying quantization/pruning and tuning GPU/CPU auto-scaling policies to meet strict SLA targets.
  • Instrument comprehensive observabilityreal-time metrics distributed tracing drift & bias detection and user-behavior analyticsenabling rapid diagnosis and continuous improvement of live models and applications.
  • Embed security and responsible-AI controls (data encryption access policies lineage tracking explainability and bias monitoring) in partnership with Security Privacy and Compliance teams.
  • Contribute reusable platform componentsfeature stores model registries experiment-tracking librariesand evangelize best practices that raise engineering velocity across squads.
  • Perform exploratory data analysis and feature ideation on complex high-dimensional datasets to inform algorithm selection and ensure model robustness.
  • Partner with data scientists to prototype and benchmark new algorithms offering guidance on scalability trade-offs and production-readiness while co-owning model-performance KPIs.

Must-Have Skills:

  • 3-5 years in AI/ML and enterprise software.
  • Comprehensive command of machine-learning algorithmsregression tree-based ensembles clustering dimensionality reduction time-series models deep-learning architectures (CNNs RNNs transformers) and modern LLM/RAG techniqueswith the judgment to choose tune and operationalize the right method for a given business problem.
  • Proven track record selecting and integrating AI SaaS/PaaS offerings and building custom ML services at scale.
  • Expert knowledge of GenAI tooling: vector databases RAG pipelines prompt-engineering DSLs and agent frameworks (e.g. LangChain Semantic Kernel).
  • Proficiency in Python and Java; containerization (Docker/K8s); cloud (AWS Azure or GCP) and modern DevOps/MLOps (GitHub Actions Bedrock/SageMaker Pipelines).
  • Strong business-case skillsable to model TCO vs. NPV and present trade-offs to executives.
  • Exceptional stakeholder management; can translate complex technical concepts into concise outcome-oriented narratives.

Good-to-Have Skills:

  • Experience in Biotechnology or pharma industry is a big plus
  • Published thought-leadership or conference talks on enterprise GenAI adoption.
  • Masters degree in computer science and or Data Science
  • Familiarity with Agile methodologies and Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) for project delivery.

Education and Professional Certifications

  • Masters degree with 8 years of experience in Computer Science IT or related field

OR

  • Bachelors degree with 10 years of experience in Computer Science IT or related field
  • Certifications on GenAI/ML platforms (AWS AI Azure AI Engineer Google Cloud ML etc.) are a plus.

Soft Skills:
