TL;DR · Senior Machine Learning Engineer, Services/MLOps

The Senior Machine Learning Engineer joins the Firefly Foundry team to build pipelines and services that transform generative AI models into enterprise-grade products. You will own the full serving lifecycle for heterogeneous model pipelines, including finetuned LLMs, image and video generation, 3D mesh reconstruction, and safety checkers. Key responsibilities involve deploying these models as scalable services, managing GPU capacity, and ensuring served quality matches training environments. You will engineer for enterprise requirements like data isolation and tenancy boundaries while building platforms for rapid deployment and observability. The role requires proficiency in Python, PyTorch, Docker, Kubernetes, and major cloud platforms like AWS or Azure. You will solve complex problems regarding latency, throughput, and cost optimization for diverse generative architectures including diffusion, transformer, and VLM models.

What you'll do

  • Own the full serving lifecycle for heterogeneous model pipelines from research checkpoints to enterprise endpoints.
  • Deploy and scale model pipelines to meet specific enterprise latency and throughput budgets.
  • Ensure served model quality matches training environments by closing gaps in precision and preprocessing.
  • Engineer multi-tenant systems with data isolation to honor customer IP contracts and audit requirements.
  • Build platforms for rapid pipeline deployment, observability, monitoring, and automated alerting.
  • Define quality gates in deployment pipelines using automated evaluation, regression detection, and drift monitoring.
  • Optimize GPU capacity and costs through efficient batching and right-sizing acceleration fleets.
  • Manage production ML operations including on-call rotations, incident response, and postmortems.

What we're looking for

  • Experience in machine learning engineering with ownership of production ML or inference services at scale.
  • Master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Strong Python and deep-learning engineering skills using PyTorch to deploy and scale model-backed services.
  • Experience composing multi-model pipelines and serving them behind APIs with orchestration, batching, and autoscaling.
  • Proven track record building observability, monitoring, and alerting for production services to meet latency and throughput targets.
  • Experience with multi-tenant systems and data isolation in enterprise or regulated contexts.
  • Fluency with containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), CI/CD for ML, and a major cloud provider (AWS or Azure).
  • Experience with GPU inference optimization, including quantization and batching; custom CUDA is a plus (preferred).
