Machine Learning Engineer - Relevance & Learning Systems

Remote - USA

About Wizard

Wizard is the top-performing AI Shopping Agent, delivering the best products from across the web with unmatched accuracy, quality, and trust.

The Role

We’re looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to design and build feedback driven learning systems that improve our AI agent over time. This is not a traditional RL research role, we’re focused on building systems that learn from real user behavior and improve production. You’ll be working at the intersection of a live conversational agent and real shopping behavior – the feedback signal quality here is unusually rich compared to traditional search.

You’ll focus on turning user interactions into learning signals, designing practical feedback loops and shipping systems that continuously improve real world outcomes.

What You’ll Do

  • Build and productionize feedback loops that improve agent performance over time
  • Build the evaluation infrastructure – offline metrics, regression suites, and experiment analysis
  • Own the signal pipelines end-to-end: instrument events, build clean labeled datasets, and translate user behaviors into reliable learning signals
  • Design lightweight reinforcement learning / bandit-style approaches where appropriate
  • Partner closely with product and engineering to define success metrics and optimize for them
  • Design and analyze experiments that validate whether learning system changes actually improve real outcomes
  • Improve ranking, recommendations and decision making within the agent
  • Iterate quickly: Ship → measure → learn → improve 

What Success Looks like

  • You ship quickly and drive measurable improvements in core product metrics
  • You turn noisy user behavior into reliable learning signals that improve the agent over time
  • You own systems end to end and operate comfortably in production

Ideal Background

  • 5-8 years hands on experience building and shipping ML systems
  • Bachelor’s or Master's degree in computer science
  • Experience shipping ML systems to production and have worked on recommendation systems, ranking, personalization or optimization problems
  • Deep knowledge in Python and model ML tooling
  • Pragmatic: you choose simple, effective solutions over theoretically perfect ones

Compensation & Benefits

The expected base salary range for this role is $225,000 - $280,000 USD, and will vary based on skills, experience, role level, and geographic location. Final compensation will be determined by considering these factors alongside overall role scope and responsibilities.

In addition to base salary, Wizard offers:

  • Equity in the form of stock options
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) plan
  • Flexible PTO and company holidays
  • Fully remote work within the United States
  • Periodic company offsites and team gatherings

Wizard is committed to fair, transparent, and competitive compensation practices.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
