With unmatched industrial heritage and a comprehensive suite of AI capabilities, including low-code AI agents, Cognite accelerates the digital transformation to drive operational improvements.\nWe thrive in challenges. We challenge assumptions. We execute with speed and ownership. If you view obstacles as signals to step forward - not backwards - you’ll feel right at home here. \nOur Moonshot is bold: Unlock $100B in customer value by 2035, and redefine how global industry works. Join us in this venture where AI and data meet ingenuity, and together, we will forge the path to a smarter, more connected industrial future.\nAbout the Opportunity\nWe are building the next generation of contextual AI for Industrial Operations. Our team focuses on transforming unstructured, complex industrial data-ranging from technical manuals to complex piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs)-into structured, actionable intelligence. We leverage state-of-the-art Deep Learning, Generative AI, and Computer Vision to drive efficiency, safety, and operational excellence.\nAbout the Role\nAs a Machine Learning Engineer, you will be a key contributor to building the models and pipelines that power our industrial contextualization platform. Working closely with senior and staff-level engineers, you will focus on execution-transforming research prototypes into high-performance, real-time applications and building the infrastructure that supports them.\nThis is an engineering-first role. We seek hands-on builders who write production-grade code, understand system design, and tackle complex infrastructure, treating ML models as software components in a large industrial architecture-not puredata scientists building isolated models.\nHow you’ll demonstrate Ownership\n\nYou love writing clean, readable code and seeing it work. You are deeply curious about how complex ML systems operate in the real world and are passionate about turning raw data into robust, reliable pipelines.\n\nYou don’t just write research scripts; you want to build durable software. You know how to take a well-defined technical plan, execute it efficiently, and ask the right questions when you hit roadblocks. You prioritize building things the right way the first time over quick, fragile hacks.\n\nYou are eager to absorb new paradigms in MLOps, containerization, and model deployment, applying feedback rapidly to improve your craft.\n\nThe Impactyou bring to Cognite\nKey Responsibilities\nBuild, test, and maintain robust data pipelines for large-scale industrial datasets.\nAssist in deploying data science prototypes to production.\nWrite high-quality, testable Python code, primarily creating RESTful/gRPC APIs for ML capabilities.\nContainerize applications (Docker) and navigate Linux to handle massive volumes of unstructured industrial data.\nRun experiments, fine-tune existing foundational models (NLP, Vision-Language), and evaluate ML libraries to enhance document parsing and entity matching.\nWrite rigorous unit/integration tests and monitor deployed models for drift and performance.\nCollaborate closely with senior staff (engineers, data scientists, product managers) to deliver features on the technical roadmap.\n\nRequired Skills and Qualifications\nBachelor’s or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.\n3-6 years of industry experience in software engineering with a strong focus on machine learning, or vice versa.\nStrong programming skills in Python, with a proven ability to write clean, modular, and testable code.\nSolid hands-on experience with frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, or LangChain.\nExperience working with large datasets, writing complex SQL queries, and hands-on familiarity with data processing libraries or frameworks (e.g., PySpark, Pandas at scale, or Dask)\nFamiliarity with MLOps basics, containerization (Docker), Linux command-line tools, and fundamental cloud services (AWS, Azure, or GCP).\nSolid understanding of core computer science fundamentals, data structures, and algorithms.\nWhat Sets you Role Apart\nThe ability to take a well-defined technical problem or architecture plan from a principal engineer and write highly efficient, bug-free code to solve it.\nA rapid trajectory in absorbing new paradigms (like vector databases or agentic workflows) and efficiently applying them to massive volumes of real-world industrial data without crashing the system.\nA commitment to treating ML code like production software, never skipping the tests or the documentation.\nPreferred Qualifications / Good to Haves\nAcademic or early industry experience with Vision-Language Models (VLMs) or Computer Vision (e.g., document layout analysis).\nHands-on familiarity with basic RAG pipelines and Vector Databases (e.g., Pinecone, Milvus, Qdrant). Exposure to agentic frameworks (e.g., LangGraph).\nExposure to modern columnar data (e.g., Parquet) or data lakes (e.g., Delta Lake, Apache Iceberg). Understand efficient querying/chunking of large unstructured data for ML.\nExperience with highly unstructured data, including text and JSON extraction from messy PDFs using OCR. OT dataset exposure is a plus.\nExperience serving models via backend web frameworks (FastAPI/Flask). Comfortable troubleshooting Linux permissions, fonts, and dependencies.\n\nLearn more about us\nImpact 2025\nCognite's Industrial AI: Moonshot\nWe’re globally recognized domain experts with an international presence that spans Phoenix, Houston, Oslo Tokyo, Bengaluru, and Abu Dhabi.\n Equal Opportunity\nCognite is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment at work and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
