Machine Learning Software Engineer - HYBRID

In this role, you will design, build, and optimize robust ML models, data pipelines, and intelligent agentic solutions. You will be responsible for the full lifecycle of model deployment, transforming experimental code into production-ready software by applying rigid development best practices (TDD, CI/CD). Collaborating cross-functionally with data scientists, architects, and product teams, you will establish automated MLOps infrastructure—including monitoring, validation, and drift detection—to ensure system reliability in an AWS environment.

Advantages
Cutting-Edge AI Scope:
Direct involvement in building and optimizing both traditional ML models and next-generation Agentic solutions with a high degree of autonomy.

End-to-End Technical Ownership:
Lead the operational deployment (MLOps) of AI models, directly influencing infrastructure automation, model tracking, and system performance.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

Serve as the technical software anchor within a diverse ecosystem of data scientists, enterprise architects, and product managers.

Modern Cloud Stack:
Deepen your expertise in cloud-native deployment using AWS, enterprise data pipelines, and advanced platforms like Databricks.

Responsibilities
1. ML Engineering & MLOps Architecture
Build, optimize, and scale machine learning models and end-to-end data pipelines.

Design and implement critical operational aspects of model deployment, including automation pipelines, continuous monitoring, and automated drift detection.

Transition experimental models and prototypes into robust, maintainable, and production-grade software applications.

Participate in research experiments and rapid prototyping to validate next-generation AI concepts.

2. Software Development & Quality Assurance
Provide core software engineering expertise to internal data analytics and data science delivery teams.

Apply strict software development best practices, including Test-Driven Development (TDD) and automated CI/CD workflows.

Review requirements, map system dependencies, and provide accurate implementation effort estimations during team planning sessions.

Test, debug, and optimize application code to eliminate performance bottlenecks.

Conduct thorough code reviews and provide constructive feedback to elevate overall team code quality.

3. Cross-Functional Synergy
Collaborate closely with architects, data scientists, product teams, and business stakeholders to translate high-level goals into functional ML architectures.

Actively contribute to team planning, daily standups, and retrospective sprint cycles.
