TL;DR · Senior Machine Learning Platform Engineer

As a Senior Machine Learning Platform Engineer on the ML Platform team within the Platform group, you will build foundational infrastructure supporting feature engineering, model training, and model serving. You will be responsible for designing reliable inference infrastructure for predictive models and LLMs while maintaining high availability and low latency at scale. Your daily work involves building and optimizing low-latency streaming pipelines for feature data, improving distributed training infrastructure for large data volumes, and developing observability tooling to monitor data quality. The role requires expertise in distributed systems, stream processing, and ML platform components like feature stores and training orchestration. You will also mentor junior engineers on production-grade software. This work directly supports critical product areas including fraud detection, user personalization, and blockchain analysis by providing the underlying infrastructure necessary for machine learning to scale across the company.

What you'll do

  • Design and maintain high-availability inference infrastructure for predictive models and LLMs.
  • Build and optimize low-latency streaming pipelines to deliver fresh feature data to production models.
  • Improve distributed training infrastructure to enable efficient processing of large data volumes.
  • Develop observability tools to monitor data quality and detect performance degradations in models.
  • Mentor junior engineers on building production-grade software and improving engineering standards.
  • Manage critical systems for fraud detection, user personalization, and blockchain analysis.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of industry experience as a software engineer.
  • Demonstrated ownership of distributed systems in production environments.
  • Experience building and operating low-latency data or ML infrastructure at scale.
  • Track record of mentoring engineers and raising team engineering quality through reviews and leadership.
  • Familiarity with ML platform components like feature stores, model serving frameworks, and training orchestration.
  • Ability to utilize generative AI responsibly to improve workflow efficiency, cost, and quality.
