Your Day to Day

As a Senior ML Engineer - you would be:

• Build and maintain scalable batch and near real-time data pipelines using PySpark, SQL, Airflow, Databricks, and AWS services

• Work with structured and semi-structured datasets using modern lakehouse/data platform architectures

• Ensure data quality, reliability, observability, and operational stability across pipelines

• Design and operate production ML systems for use cases such as recommendations, churn prediction, anomaly detection, and usage intelligence

• Work across the ML lifecycle including:

• feature engineering

• model training and evaluation

• batch / real-time inference

• monitoring and retraining

• Build and maintain practical MLOps workflows including deployment, model versioning, monitoring, and rollback strategies

• Partner with Product, Marketing, Sales, Platform, and Engineering teams to translate business problems into scalable ML solutions

• Contribute to architecture discussions around scalability, performance, reliability, and cost optimization

• Mentor engineers and contribute to engineering best practices 

What We’re Looking For

As a Senior ML Engineer, your background will look like

• 5+ years of experience in data engineering, ML engineering, or backend engineering with exposure to production systems

• Hands-on experience with PySpark and SQL for large-scale data processing

• Experience working with Databricks and/or AWS data stack (EMR, EKS, S3, Glue, etc.)

• Good practical understanding of data pipelines, ETL/ELT workflows, and distributed processing systems

• Hands-on experience building and deploying ML systems for real business problems (not just POCs or experimentation)

• Exposure across the ML lifecycle including feature engineering, training, inference, monitoring, and retraining workflows

• Practical exposure to MLOps concepts such as deployment pipelines, model versioning, monitoring, and production debugging

• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills in production environments

• Ability to work across data pipelines, ML systems, and production workflows with strong ownership.

• Experience building feature pipelines or feature stores

• Exposure to streaming systems (Kafka, Spark Streaming, Kinesis)

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines for data and ML workflows

• Familiarity with data governance frameworks (e.g., Unity Catalog)

• Exposure to AI/LLM-based systems (RAG, etc.) as an extension (not primary focus)

Core Hiring Principle

What Success Looks Like 

• Building reliable ML pipelines and systems

• Operating ML workflows in production

• Collaborating across data, product, and engineering teams
