Machine Learning Engineer Jobs

About The Position

Requirements

• Professional experience in building and deploying production ML systems and handling imbalanced datasets in high-stakes domains like finance or e-commerce.
• Good understanding of traditional ML systems and modern deep learning/reinforcement learning architectures, with a track record of applying them to real-world problems.
• Architectural thinking to solve ambiguous, data-driven problems in fast-paced settings, with experience scaling ML systems under explosive growth while maintaining accuracy, fairness, and explainability.
• Exceptional collaboration and communication skills, including the ability to explain complex ML concepts to non-technical stakeholders, thriving in low-churn teams focused on excellence, ethical AI, and long-term impact.

Nice To Haves

• Competitive ML experience (e.g., top rankings in Kaggle, NeurIPS challenges, or open-source contributions) is a bonus, demonstrating your ability to innovate under constraints and deliver high-performance models.

Responsibilities

• Design, train, and deploy scalable machine learning models for critical FinTech applications, including credit risk assessment, fraud detection, and personalized financial recommendations, using frameworks like PyTorch and LightGBM.
• Architect ML pipelines integrating with backend systems to process high-throughput data streams with low-latency inference for real-time decision-making.
• Leverage AI tools to automate experimentation, hyperparameter tuning, and test-driven ML development, accelerating the delivery of robust, production-ready models.
• Support the full ML lifecycle, including feature engineering, model evaluation, A/B testing, monitoring for drift, and seamless scaling to support explosive user growth while ensuring compliance with financial regulations.
• Experiment with advanced techniques in deep learning and reinforcement learning to push the boundaries of what's possible in consumer finance.
