Remote Machine Learning Engineer

Summary

Join our Applied AI and Machine Learning team as a machine learning engineer and contribute features and machine learning models to our core recommender systems and DaVinci Personalization product. You will work alongside other scientists and engineers in a collaborative environment, contributing insights into customer behavior and deriving modeling ideas for improving our content recommender system.

Requirements

• Master’s degree or equivalent experience (2+ years) in a relevant field or industry
• Solid understanding of machine learning fundamentals
• High comfort level in Python or other programming language
• Familiarity with an ML stack such as typical scientific Python libraries (pandas, numpy, sklearn, xgboost) or deep learning frameworks (we use Pytorch)
• Familiarity with data analysis through SQL or a big-data processing framework such as Spark
• Ability to collaborate with technical partners – you’ll be working closely with other teams to determine requirements for your work and to make design decisions that affect our stack
• The idea of writing and deploying production code, and getting real-world feedback on your models excites you
• A desire to always be learning and contributing to a collaborative environment

Responsibilities

• Generate insights into customer behavior and derive modeling ideas for improving our content recommender system
• Work with data engineers to define what additional customer data we might want to collect and help make it available in a format suitable for modeling purposes
• Create meaningful machine-learning features that improve our content recommender’s performance measured through offline metrics and online a/b tests
• Build machine learning models and deploy them as part of our recommender system
