Staff Machine Learning Engineer

Overview:As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer you will be the overall tech lead of asingleAI/Machine Learning team responsible for the tech design and tech health of the team. You will build and architect scalable and reliable AIML solutions that align with the companys tech paved path and stakeholder requirements. This role requires a minimum of 6 years of relevant experience.

Key Responsibilities:

System development: Architect scalable and reliable AIML solutions that align with the companys tech paved path and stakeholder requirements.

Establish ML Best Practice:Develop and implement Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) best practices for machine learning projects ensuring scalable secure and reliable systems from model development to production deployment. Expected to stay hands-oncodingabout 70% of the time.

Product Leadership & Feature Backlogs: Define the product roadmap for machine learning solutions andestablishfeature backlogs. Prioritize key ML features in collaboration with product managers aligning them with businessobjectivesand technical feasibility.

OptimizeModel Performance and ReliabilityDebug and troubleshoot model performance issues track key metrics and continuously enhance model reliability speed and efficiency in production environments.

End-to-End Model Lifecycle Management:Own the complete lifecycle of ML models including monitoring retraining finetuning and managing versions of models to ensure they continue to meet business needs over time.

Leadership and Mentorship:Guide and mentor machine learning engineers promote best practices in software engineering model development and deployment. Lead technical decision-making processes and foster collaboration within the team.
