Principal Machine Learning Engineer, Accelerated Apache Spark
About The Position
NVIDIA is looking for a Machine Learning (ML) Engineer to join the GPU accelerated Apache Spark team. Apache Spark is the most popular data processing engine in data centers for running large scale workloads for ETL, SQL, and ML/DL model training and inference pipelines, spanning many domains and use cases. NVIDIA GPUs offer a promising avenue for significantly speeding up and/or lowering the cost of running Apache Spark applications at massive scales. You will work with the open source community to accelerate Apache Spark with GPUs. You will apply the latest ML/AI methods to empower enterprises to migrate Spark workloads onto GPUs at scale.
Requirements
- BS, MS, or PhD or equivalent experience in Machine Learning, Data Science, Computer Science or a closely related field.
- 12+ years of professional experience in designing, implementing, and productionizing high-quality ML/DL solutions.
- 5+ experience as technical lead in ML model development.
- Proven hands-on experience (2+ years) with large-scale data processing platforms, such as Apache Spark.
- Proven ability to employ modern tooling and sound techniques for all aspects of crafting, deploying, and maintaining machine learning models.
- Excellent programming skills in Python and Python data science related libraries like numpy, pandas, scikit-learn, scipy, pytorch, and tensorflow.
- Deep experience with sophisticated ML methodologies, including LLM/GenAI, reinforcement learning, and adaptive, on-line ML systems.
