About the role
- The ML Engineer on the Alerts Team plays a pivotal role in the intelligence layer that powers Samdesk's automated alert pipeline - converting raw unstructured text to actionable crisis intelligence.
- You will work at the intersection of large-scale data systems and cutting-edge AI infrastructure, and your decisions will have a direct impact on system reliability and the quality of alerts delivered to users around the world.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and deploy ML models across the full lifecycle, from designing the ML architecture through error analysis and deployment
- Collaborate with data and engineering teams to build scalable ML pipelines
- Design and implement AI agents that coordinate LLM inference with our real-time data pipeline
- Build and maintain the orchestration layer governing how language models interact with structured pipeline outputs
Requirements
- Hands-on experience with OpenAI and/or Anthropic APIs, including tool use, streaming, and prompt management
Nice to have
- Experience with real-time data pipelines or event-driven architectures
- Familiarity with LLM evaluation frameworks, observability tooling, or RAG architectures
- Background in news, media monitoring, or open-source intelligence (OSINT)
- Solid working knowledge of AWS services (S3, SQS, CloudWatch) and ML infrastructure such as GPU-based inference, or vector databases
- You have strong opinions, loosely held.
- You argue for the right solution, not your solution
- You have a bias towards action and don't require a 'playbook' to get things done.
- Samdesk is an equal opportunity employer committed to creating a safe, diverse and inclusive environment.
