Machine Learning Engineer
Engineering – Software Engineering / Full Time / Remote
About the Opportunity ✍️
We’re looking for a seasoned Machine Learning Engineer who understands the full life cycle of training machine learning models and putting them into production. This person can help us build, expand, and maintain our machine learning infrastructure and ecosystem.
In this role, you’ll be a part of the Data team. You’ll help implement machine learning systems that have significant impact on critical functions of the business. In your work, you’ll collaborate closely with Chainbased’s data scientists and operate cross-functionally with Engineering, Ops, Product, Fraud Prevention, and more.
As an ML Engineer, we’ll be looking to you to assess Chainbased’s current ML design, come up with a strategy to effectively expand and improve on ML implementations, and play a key role in ensuring that our ML systems continue to operate effectively.
This role will be hybrid, and will require you to spend some portion of your time in our office in one of these locations.
What you will do
• Consult with data scientists on training machine learning models (after all, in a production environment, there are implications to model choices that need to be considered)
• Provide a strategic vision on how to make machine learning a cornerstone to Chainbased’sbusiness
• Support additions and improvements to the ML infrastructure, including getting your hands dirty with data engineering and DevOps engineering
• Design systems to meet throughput and latency requirements
• Implement NFRs (Non-Functional Requirements) to ensure a high degree of system reliability
• Implement and participate in practices (such as an on-call rotation) to ensure the continuous delivery of machine learning services
About You
You’ve been involved in ML before. In the past, you’ve worked closely with data scientists to help them bring experimental features and models to production. You know your way around implementing machine learning systems in a safe and reliable manner, you’re familiar with cloud infrastructure, you have experience with getting complex systems set up in a stable manner,, and you’re aware of potential pitfalls in machine learning systems that should be navigated around. Now, you’re up for a challenge and are interested in having a significant impact on the success of Chainbased. You’re looking for an opportunity to stretch your ML capabilities to help a vibrant business scale up and scale out its machine learning capabilities.
