What You'll Do
- Own the ML Lifecycle: You will design, build, and operate the end-to-end lifecycle of our recommendation engine, from research and prototyping to deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
- Innovate and Experiment: You'll have the autonomy to explore the frontiers of ML/AI, prototype cutting-edge solutions, and directly influence our technical roadmap.
- Collaborate and Build: Work within a collaborative and experienced technology team, led by a hands-on technical manager, to build elegant, high-impact solutions.

- BS/MS in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Physics, or another quantitative field.
- 2-3 years of professional experience building and deploying machine learning models (or equivalent experience through research, internships, or significant personal projects).
- Proficiency in Python and its core data science libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, pandas, numpy).
- Experience building and maintaining APIs for data-centric applications (e.g., FastAPI, Flask).
- A strong foundation in software engineering best practices, including version control (Git), testing, and writing clean, maintainable code.
- Experience with Docker and deploying containerized applications.
- Proficiency with SQL for data querying and analysis.
- Prior experience contributing to a production machine learning system.
- Experience with vector databases (e.g., Milvus, Pinecone) and an understanding of modern search and recommendation techniques.
