  • Collaborate with data engineers to build and maintain robust data pipelines for feature ingestion, ETL, and model training.
  • Fine-tune and optimize models for scalability, accuracy, and production readiness.
  • Implement MLOps best practices including CI/CD pipelines, model versioning, monitoring, and automated retraining workflows.
  • Monitor model performance, detect drift, and implement automated alerts and corrective actions.
  • Work with cross-functional teams (product, software, infrastructure) to integrate AI capabilities into user-facing features.
  • Share knowledge with the team through code reviews, documentation, and architecture discussions.
Who You Are
  • 3–6 years of professional experience in ML engineering, data science, or related roles.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS services including SageMaker, Lambda, Step Functions, S3, and DynamoDB.
  • Proficient in Python and ML frameworks such as TensorFlow.

  • Familiar with containerization (Docker), CI/CD pipelines, and MLOps workflows.
  • Self-starter who thrives with autonomy and can deliver results with minimal oversight.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills; comfortable explaining ML concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Bonus: AWS ML certification or equivalent hands-on experience.
  • Bonus: Experience with generative AI, LLMs, or advanced ML applications.
