Data Science at Bluecore is a cross-functional effort that focuses on delivering ML products.  While we take pride in the models we build and invest heavily in principled research, we understand that models only provide value if they are incorporated into a product that is easy to adopt and provides significant value.  To that end we have invested in a Data Science Infrastructure Engineering team to build the orchestration and compute platforms that enable rapid iteration, deployment and monitoring, work with our Data Scientists to scale our models to leverage our large data, and serve the models at scale.  

 

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join this Data Science Infrastructure Engineering team to help design and build our next generation ML platform. They will join forces with other cross-functional engineering teams to build scalable, extensible, reliable, and performant systems that provide significant company and industry-level impact. 

 

This position requires an influential leader who can actively code while simultaneously helping our team design and implement technical solutions. They will be designing and building services in Python, Go and gRPC running on Kubernetes and the Google Cloud Platform, leveraging BigQuery, Datastore, and BigTable for storage. They will also be working with our Data Scientists to leverage technologies including Beam, Spark, TensorFlow and PyTorch to efficiently leverage and activate our data. 

Responsibilities
    • Be a key contributor on major projects owned by the Data Science Infrastructure squad, such as: building our next-generation AI platform, building scalable and efficient model serving infrastructure across multiple channels, working with data scientists to optimize and scale their models.
    • Design, architect, and build performant, reliable, high-quality systems at scale within one or more engineering domains.
    • Work cross-functionally with product managers, data scientists, and engineers to deliver high quality products.
    • Evangelize Bluecore Engineering internally and externally, including leading initiatives to promote Bluecore Engineering in the wider community.
    • Proactively identify technology opportunities for the company, and push technical ideas, proposals, and plans to the entire organization and beyond through presentations, technical specs, blog posts, and documentation. 
    • Lead company-wide technical strategy and decisions and facilitate progress by building consensus amongst Senior Engineering Leadership and Company Leadership. Advise and advocate for best tools, methods, and approaches for the entire Engineering organization.
    • Function as a sought-out mentor and leader for a technical domain or set of domains across the company. Increase the technical capabilities and upper limits of your own areas of responsibility and expertise, as well as those of your associated team members.  Teach sessions, write documentation, and actively mentor to decrease the ramp-up time of new and existing team members.
Qualifications
    • Experience working with Data Scientists to develop, build and serve models at scale. 
    • Experience with leveraging languages and tools like Spark, Beam, TensorFlow, PyTorch to train and serve models. 
    • Expertise with statically-typed languages, preferably Go. Use of performance optimization tools and past experience in a SRE function is a plus.
    • B.S./B.E in one of the following departments (i) Computer Science, (ii) Computer Engineering, (iii) Information Sciences, (iv) Electronics, (v) Mathematics, or relevant field/equivalent work experience.
    • Experience excelling within a high-growth, startup environment or building out a new team/function within a larger company is preferred.
    • Strong communication skills with internal stakeholders on long-term development plans, as well as in articulating short-term issues and delivery.
