Senior Machine Learning Engineer

VSCOSan Francisco, CA
12h$240,000 - $260,000Hybrid

About The Position

In this role, you will turn AI and ML into exciting, reliable user-facing product capabilities. You bring a strong technical background with deep machine learning expertise shaped by hands-on experience shipping models into production and iterating based on real-world feedback. You’re motivated by measurable impact and customer delight, and you balance innovation with practicality. You’re fluent in Python, comfortable working across the data + ML stack, and able to build and ship models quickly in ways that are maintainable, observable, and scalable to large datasets. From lightweight heuristics and classical ML to modern deep learning and generative AI workflows, you can choose the right level of complexity for the problem and execute end-to-end: framing, experimentation, evaluation, deployment, and iteration. You value the craft of software engineering and bring a thoughtful approach to system design for ML—data quality, pipelines, feature/embedding workflows, model serving, monitoring, and continuous improvement. Because ML has the most leverage when it’s deeply integrated into a cohesive product experience, you’re a strong cross-functional partner: you collaborate closely with product, design, engineering, and data to align on goals, define success metrics, and deliver outcomes. You stay current on the fast-moving AI landscape with a grounded perspective—curious, discerning, and able to separate durable advances from hype—so the team can move quickly without chasing noise.
