We are seeking talented and passionate Software Engineers who take the initiative in identifying and solving complex problems related to ML systems.

• Proficiency in writing high-quality, maintainable, and robust code, with expertise in languages such as Golang or Java.
• Adopting best practices in software engineering, including design, testing, version control, documentation, build, deployment, and operations.
• Experience with the machine learning model lifecycle, including ML Ops principles, model deployment, monitoring, and scaling.
• Experience in developing highly scalable software systems with characteristics such as high performance, high availability, low latency, and distributed architecture.

• Design, build, and maintain scalable infrastructure to support the entire machine learning model lifecycle, from training and deployment to inference and monitoring.
• Act as the owner of a functional area within our ML platform, from product conception to delivery.
• Prepare high-level designs and document them, ensuring they meet the demands of large-scale ML workloads.
• Independently perform low-level design and coding in multiple tech components.
• Optimize existing microservices for performance, latency, and cost, particularly those serving ML models.
• Consider non-functional requirements (reliability, availability, scalability) when making decisions.
• Build, develop, mentor, and coach junior team members.
• Conduct and participate in code and design reviews to maintain high development standards.
• Collaborate with Data Science and ML teams to understand their infrastructure needs and build pragmatic, flexible systems that deliver tangible business impact.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or equivalent with at least 5 years of experience.
• Substantial experience in building complex and scalable backend solutions, preferably for ML or data-intensive systems.
• Excellent programming skills in one or more languages, preferably Golang or Java.
• Strong object-oriented design skills, ability to apply design patterns, and an uncanny ability to design intuitive modules and class-level interfaces.
• Experience in distributed systems design and architecture, with experience in system performance and scaling for large-scale ML workloads.
• Experience with a variety of databases, including relational (e.g., MySQL), NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB), and Vector Databases.
• Experience in leading multi-engineer projects and mentoring junior engineers.
• Ability to perform deep problem-solving and build elegant, maintainable solutions for complex problems.
