The Opportunity: Your Impact as Our ML Engineer
As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will be the architect of our technical evolution. We have a proven product and strong models, but we are ready to mature our technology to support increasing demand and remain agile to combat evolving scam tactics. You will have the autonomy to design, build, and own the end-to-end machine learning infrastructure that ensures our systems are robust, scalable, and secureCore Responsibilities: What You'll Build and Own
- Pipeline Architecture & Automation: Lead the migration of our modeling workflows from notebooks and scripts to fully automated, production-grade ML pipelines. You will define how we train, version, and deploy models at scale.
- Privacy Engineering: Collaborate with Data Engineers to design and enhance our privacy-preserving data pipelines. You will be responsible for ensuring that PII is detected and anonymized effectively before it reaches our training environments or is retained.
- Infrastructure as Code: Champion the use of AWS CDK (or Terraform) to define our ML infrastructure, ensuring our training and inference environments are reproducible and resilient.
- Model Expansion: Collaborate with the CDO to expand our technical capabilities, including building the foundation for multi-lingual fraud detection and hybrid rule-based/ML systems.
- Operational Excellence: Implement best practices for MLOps, including automated rollback strategies, drift detection, and continuous performance monitoring.
Must-Have Qualifications:
- 3-5 Years of Experience: Proven background in Machine Learning Engineering (or Data Science with a heavy software engineering focus).
- SageMaker Native: Deep expertise within the AWS ML ecosystem, specifically in migrating workflows from SageMaker Studio Notebooks to automated Pipelines.
- Strong Python Engineering: You write clean, modular, and tested code. You are comfortable refactoring "research code" into production-grade software.
- MLOps Fundamentals: Experience implementing CI/CD for machine learning, including automated rollback strategies and model drift detection.
- Infrastructure as Code: Hands-on experience defining infrastructure using AWS CDK or Terraform.
Nice-to-Have:
- NLP & PII Experience: Familiarity with Named Entity Recognition (NER) for PII redaction and working with modern text classification architectures (BERT, RoBERTa).
- Multi-Lingual NLP: Experience training, fine-tuning, or deploying models for non-English languages.
Education:
- Bachelor’s or advanced degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related technical field.
