USD Salary: Negotiable based on experience
The AI/ML Engineer is responsible for designing, building, and deploying machine learning models and AI-powered systems that solve real business problems. This role spans the full ML lifecycle - from data preparation and model development to production deployment and monitoring - and requires a strong combination of software engineering discipline and data science expertise. The AI/ML Engineer collaborates closely with data engineers, product managers, and business stakeholders to deliver AI solutions that are accurate, reliable, and scalable.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models for classification, regression, NLP, computer vision, recommendation, or other applicable use cases.
- Work with data engineers to build and maintain data pipelines that feed ML model training and inference.
- Evaluate and select appropriate algorithms, frameworks, and architectures for each problem.
- Train, validate, and fine-tune models using best practices for avoiding overfitting and ensuring generalization.
- Deploy models to production environments and build robust inference pipelines.
- Monitor model performance post-deployment and implement strategies for model retraining and drift detection.
- Collaborate with product and engineering teams to integrate AI features into applications.
- Conduct experiments, document findings, and present insights to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Stay current with advances in AI/ML research and assess applicability to the business.
- Contribute to MLOps practices, tooling, and infrastructure.
Requirements
- 3-5 years of experience in machine learning engineering, data science, or a related field.
- Proficiency in Python and core ML libraries (scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, or similar).
- Strong understanding of machine learning fundamentals (supervised/unsupervised learning, model evaluation, feature engineering).
- Experience deploying ML models to production environments (APIs, batch pipelines, or embedded systems).
- Familiarity with data manipulation and analysis (Pandas, NumPy, SQL).
- Solid software engineering practices - version control, testing, and code quality.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
NICE TO HAVE
- Experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, and generative AI applications (OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, or similar).
- Familiarity with MLOps platforms (MLflow, Weights & Biases, SageMaker, Vertex AI, or similar).
- Experience with cloud ML infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure AI/ML services).
- Knowledge of data engineering tools and pipelines (Spark, Airflow, dbt, or similar).
- Experience with NLP techniques (transformers, embeddings, RAG pipelines).
- Advanced degree (M.S. or Ph.D.) in Computer Science, Statistics, or a related field.
