  • Build the scalable ML platform to automate our ML service.

  • Be a representative for how to apply machine learning and related techniques throughout the engineering and product organization.

  • Be able, and willing, to multi-task and learn new technologies quickly.

  • Extensive experience using computer vision, deep learning, deep reinforcement learning, or natural language processing in a production environment.

  • Strong programming skills in Python or Javascript, experience in TensorFlow or PyTorch.


Nice to Haves:
  • Graduate degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or Artificial Intelligence specialization.
