About the role
- Amazing things are created every day with our software - from the greenest buildings and cleanest cars to the smartest factories and biggest hit movies.
- We help innovators turn their ideas into reality, transforming not only how things are made, but what can be made.
- Ready to shape the world and your future?
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain production-grade ML pipelines supporting enterprise-scale use cases
- Develop reusable ML services and components
- Develop robust model evaluation frameworks covering dimensions such as accuracy, relevance, groundedness, consistency, latency, throughput, robustness, and cost
- Design automated evaluation pipelines using deterministic metrics, model-based evaluation, curated datasets, regression testing, and human evaluation where appropriate
- Build and maintain distributed processing pipelines capable of handling large volumes of documents, web content, structured data, and unstructured data efficiently
- Design and optimize distributed pipeline and cloud orchestration for large-scale AI workloads using appropriate workflow orchestration and cloud-native technologies
- Implement resilient processing patterns including concurrency management, queue-based architectures, checkpointing, retries, failure recovery, rate limiting, and idempotent processing
- Optimize AI/ML systems for latency, throughput, scalability infrastructure utilization, and model inference cost
- Partner with platform engineering teams to integrate AI applications with the relevant platforms, APIs, identity and access management, monitoring, and deployment infrastructure
- Implement appropriate MLOps and LLMOps practices, including model and prompt versioning, experiment tracking, evaluation, deployment automation, monitoring, rollback mechanisms, and lifecycle management
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience designing and operating production ML systems rather than only experimentation or notebook-based model development
- Working experience with Snowflake, Hands-on experience with Snowflake utilities, Snow SQL, Snow Pipe.
- Must have worked on Snowflake Cost optimization scenarios
- Experience with workflow orchestration technologies such as Airflow or comparable orchestration frameworks
- Experience designing distributed data or ML processing pipelines for high-volume workloads
- Experience deploying workloads into a major cloud environment, preferably AWS, and working with cloud services for compute, storage, event processing, monitoring, and distributed execution
- Experience with Git-based software development workflows, code reviews, branching strategies, and collaborative engineering practices
- Familiarity with MLOps concepts, including experiment tracking, model lifecycle management, deployment, model monitoring, reproducibility, and versioning
- Experience working with structured and unstructured data and designing preprocessing, enrichment, and transformation pipelines.
- Strong analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills with the ability to diagnose issues across application, model, pipeline, and infrastructure layers
Compensation
- Salary transparency
Benefits
- Build comprehensive observability and monitoring mechanisms across ML pipelines, covering pipeline health, model performance, data quality, failures, and cost
