About the role

Data Scientist, AI/ML

Job Description:

Today’s complex, fast-paced systems have become a minefield of reliability risks, any of which could cause an outage that costs millions and destroys customer confidence. That’s why high-availability teams use Gremlin to find and fix reliability risks before they become incidents.

Gremlin Reliability Platform helps software teams proactively monitor and test their systems for common reliability risks, build and enforce reliability standards, and automate their reliability practices organization-wide. As the industry leader in Chaos Engineering and reliability testing, we work with hundreds of the world’s largest organizations where high availability is non-negotiable.

About the Role of the Data Scientist, AI/ML

As a Data Scientist, AI/ML at Gremlin, you will have the opportunity to improve the reliability of the internet at large by turning millions of chaos engineering experiments into automated failure analysis and remediation. You will be able to leverage your applied machine learning experience to inform product direction as well as solve complex technical problems that directly impact our customers (which range from the Fortune 500 to smaller organizations). You will work closely with a small, talented engineering team focused on quality, delivery, and predictability with an emphasis on providing our customers a great user experience.

In this role, you’ll get to:

- Analyze Gremlin’s proprietary dataset of millions of chaos engineering experiments to identify failure patterns, root causes, and resilience signals across complex distributed systems

- Pretraining and fine-tuning machine learning models that automatically detect, classify, and explain failures observed during chaos experiments

- Build intelligent systems that deliver automated remediation recommendations, and eventually orchestration, by learning from historical experiment outcomes and system behavior

- Develop scalable data pipelines and feature stores to process, enrich, and serve large volumes of experiment data for both model training and real-time inference

- Collaborate closely with platform engineers and SREs to integrate AI-driven failure analysis and remediation capabilities directly into Gremlin’s core product

- Apply advanced techniques, including causal inference, graph ML, time-series modeling, and reinforcement learning, to continuously improve the accuracy and actionability of automated failure analysis

- Translate insights from millions of chaos experiments into AI-powered features that help customers automatically understand blast radius, pinpoint root causes, and accelerate recovery

- Research and productionize novel ML approaches, including causal AI and agentic systems, that turn raw chaos experiment data into automated, reliable remediation strategies

We’ll expect you to have:

- Experience as a self-driven and collaborative problem solver with strong communication skills
