ML Engineer

Summary

Join Hike and become a Senior ML Engineer, building AI models to power the Rush Gaming Universe. You will translate cutting-edge research into real-time, scalable systems enhancing gameplay. As an AI-first thinker, you'll leverage state-of-the-art tools to build smarter and faster. This role involves building deep learning models in computer vision, graphics, and audio, owning quality and performance metrics, and creating deployment pipelines. Collaboration with artists, engineers, and scientists is key to translating research into high-quality user experiences. You will also leverage AI in your workflow, from prototyping to automating tasks.

Requirements

• 1-3 years of relevant industry experience
• B.tech/MS from a top Tier institute
• Strong programming abilities, especially Python Scientific & Deep Learning Stack (Numpy, Pandas, Pytorch/Tensorflow, Transformers, Diffusers etc.)
• Solid foundations in Data-Structures, Algorithms, Design & Architecture
• Exposure to Deep Learning, preferably building Generative AI applications
• Experience working with LLMs such as Open AI GPTs, LLaMA & Claude with use cases taken to production. Preferably, experience working with SLMs and Mobile Language Models
• Strong AI-first mindset — you actively use AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, GPT, LangChain) to enhance daily workflows, improve velocity, and automate repetitive dev tasks
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment without compromising on quality
• Ability to be self-directed and learn quickly, coupled with a strong desire to stay on top of latest developments in the field of AI
• Teamplayer with excellent organizational, communication and interpersonal skills

Responsibilities

• Build deep learning models in the areas of computer-vision, graphics & audio
• Own end to end Quality & Performance Metrics for AI deployment pipelines: from learning to inference to rendering
• Create deployment pipelines for server-side as well as on-device real-time inference
• Optimize ML inference pipelines to render high quality 3D graphics across multiple clients ranging from Android Native to game-engines like Unity
• Collaborate in a cross-functional setup including Artists, Engineers & Scientists to translate cutting-edge research (AI, Art & Graphics/Multimedia) into high quality user-experiences
• Leverage AI not just in product development but in your own workflow — from rapid prototyping with LLMs to automating test generation, documentation, and internal tooling
