Our data is high-volume, real-time, and deeply tied to how people experience sound and image worldwide.\nWe're hiring a Senior AI Engineer to design and own the data pipelines, platform services, and ML systems that our researchers, data scientists, and product teams depend on daily. You'll work across the full lifecycle, from ingestion through model deployment on systems that run at scale in production Kubernetes and Databricks environments.\nThis is a hands-on engineering role with real ownership. You'll build things, put them in production, and keep them running.\nWhat You'll Do\nBuild and operate ML-ready data systems. Create the data preparation, feature generation, and training pipelines that AI researchers and ML engineers use to take models from experiment to production. Own data versioning, validation, and reproducibility for ML workflows.\nDeploy and support production AI/ML systems. Build and maintain the pipelines that serve model training, testing, validation, deployment, and inference in production. Partner with ML engineers to operationalize models reliably.\nOwn data systems end-to-end. Design, build, and operate ETL/ELT pipelines that ingest data from real-time event streams, third-party APIs, and media-rich sources into our lakehouse architecture. Own throughput, latency, reliability, and cost.\nRun production workloads on Kubernetes. Deploy, monitor, and troubleshoot containerized data services and distributed processing applications in cloud-native Kubernetes environments.\nDevelop platform and data products. Build SDKs, APIs, and reusable frameworks that make it easy for other engineering and research teams to access data and adopt the platform.\nEnsure data quality and governance. Implement validation, reconciliation, and monitoring processes. Maintain data catalogs and metadata so teams can discover, trust, and reuse data assets across the organization.\nImprove observability and operational health. Design monitoring, alerting, and logging for pipelines and infrastructure. You'll be expected to catch problems before users do.\nWhat You Bring\nRequired\n5+ years in data engineering, data platform engineering, AI engineering or a closely related field.\nExpert-level proficiency in at least one major programming language such as Python, Scala, or Java.\nProduction ML/AI pipelines: you have personally built or co-built pipelines that took models through training, testing, validation, and deployment into production.\nDatabricks: hands-on production experience with Lakehouse architecture, Delta Lake, Spark optimization, and Workflows. Experience managing large-scale, heterogeneous datasets on Databricks.\n Ray / Apache Spark (or equivalent distributed processing framework): deep, production-scale experience building and optimizing data pipelines.\nKubernetes: hands-on experience deploying, operating, and troubleshooting production workloads - not just deploying onto clusters, but understanding how they run.\nCloud platforms: strong experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure and their data services.\nSQL Mastery: Advanced SQL skills for data manipulation, analysis, and optimization.\nDatabase Knowledge: Solid understanding of relational and NoSQL databases.\nData Architecture: solid understanding of data modeling, schema design, and lake/lakehouse/warehouse patterns.\nEvent-driven systems: Experience with messaging, pub/sub, queues, or streaming platforms.\nPreferred\nExperience with MLOps tooling (MLflow, Airflow, Kubeflow, Feast, or similar).\nFamiliarity with feature stores, vector databases, embedding pipelines, or retrieval systems.\nExperience on batch and online inference workloads with an understanding of latency sensitive environments.\nExperience supporting generative AI, LLM, or multimodal AI workloads.\nOptimized GPU utilization during model training or fine-tuning.\nUnderstanding of distributed computing fundamentals -
