Machine Learning Role

In order to execute our vision, we need to grow our team of best-in-class machine learning engineers. We are looking for developers who are excited about staying at the forefront of deep learning technology, prototyping state-of-the-art neural net models and launching these models into production. We value hard workers who have no qualms working with terabyte-scale datasets, who are interested in learning new technologies at all levels of the machine learning stack, and who move fast and take ownership of their projects. Our ideal candidate has experience creating a working machine learning-powered project from the ground up, contributes innovative ideas and ingenious implementations to the team, and is capable of planning out scalable, maintainable data pipelines.

Responsibilities - Everything involved in applying a ML model to a production use case, including, designing and coding up the neural network, gathering and refining data, training and tuning the model, deploying it at scale with high throughput and uptime, and analyzing the results in the wild in order to continuously update and improve accuracy and speed

- Interface closely with the Backend and DevOps teams as well as with our internal data labeling services

- Utilize OWASP top 10 techniques to secure code from vulnerabilities

- Maintain awareness of industry best practices for data maintenance handling as it relates to your role

- Adhere to policies, guidelines and procedures pertaining to the protection of information assets

- Report actual or suspected security and/or policy violations/breaches to an appropriate authority

Requirements - You have an undergraduate or graduate degree in computer science or similar technical field, with significant coursework in mathematics or statistics

- You have 1-2 years industry machine learning experience

- You have successfully trained and deployed a deep learning machine model (image, NLP, video, or audio) into production, with measurably improved performance over baseline, either in industry or as a personal project
