About the role

  • Success means Finetouch becomes faster, smarter, and more trusted as the intelligence layer behind Kargo's creative analytics.
  • Ship the next generation of Finetouch-delivering better predictive accuracy on creative performance, expanded multimodal signal coverage (visual + text + engagement), and validated lift over the current baseline

Responsibilities

  • Build and operate the APIs, embedding services, and model endpoints that let Glossi and other Kargo creative platforms consume scoring in real time, with documented SLAs and integration patterns
  • ThinkLA Partner of the Year

Nice to have

  • Stand up production-grade MLOps pipelines-training, fine-tuning, deployment, monitoring-on MLflow/Kubeflow/Ray Train so model iterations move from notebook to production in days, not weeks
  • Scale distributed training and inference on multimodal/VLM workloads through Ray, PyTorch Distributed, and right-sized cloud infrastructure-enabling larger models and faster experimentation cycles
  • Deploy real-time monitoring, drift detection, and alerting so production model degradation is caught before it affects creative decisions
  • Explain multimodal modeling tradeoffs to Product and Creative stakeholders in terms of business impact, partnering with Data Science and Platform Engineering as co-owners, not handoff points
  • 5+ years in ML engineering or MLOps, with shipped production systems involving LLMs, VLMs, or multimodal architectures
  • Expert in Python and PyTorch (or TensorFlow), plus distributed training frameworks (Ray, PyTorch Lightning, Horovod)
  • Preferred: experience with vector databases, embedding pipelines, and real-time retrieval systems, plus a background in creative scoring, aesthetic modeling, or ad performance prediction

Skills

  • Cloud-native ML deployment on AWS (SageMaker), GCP (Vertex AI), or Azure ML, with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Helm)
  • Production fluency with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD patterns for ML

Compensation

  • In accordance with applicable federal, state, and local pay transparency laws, the anticipated base salary range for this position is listed below.

Benefits

  • This role is the technical anchor for the Creative Sciences Platform, translating research in LLMs, VLMs, and multimodal learning into scalable, reliable systems that creative and product teams build on.
