As a machine learning engineer, you will be part of our Applied AI and Machine Learning team. You will work alongside other scientists and engineers in a collaborative environment, contributing features and machine learning models to our core recommender systems and our DaVinci Personalization product. This is an opportunity to work end-to-end on a large-scale machine-learning system that touches millions of customers, and a chance to continuously learn and help improve our solution as the field evolves.
Responsibilities:
Generate insights into customer behavior and derive modeling ideas for improving our content recommender system Work with data engineers to define what additional customer data we might want to collect and help make it available in a format suitable for modeling purposes Create meaningful machine-learning features that improve our content recommender’s performance measured through offline metrics and online a/b tests Build machine learning models and deploy them as part of our recommender system
Qualifications:
Master’s degree or equivalent experience (2+ years) in a relevant field or industry Solid understanding of machine learning fundamentals High comfort level in Python or other programming language Familiarity with an ML stack such as typical scientific Python libraries (pandas, numpy, sklearn, xgboost) or deep learning frameworks (we use Pytorch) Familiarity with data analysis through SQL or a big-data processing framework such as Spark Ability to collaborate with technical partners – you’ll be working closely with other teams to determine requirements for your work and to make design decisions that affect our stack The idea of writing and deploying production code, and getting real-world feedback on your models excites you A desire to always be learning and contributing to a collaborative environment
