Job description
We are seeking a skilled and experienced Machine Learning Engineer with a strong technical background in Generative AI to join our team. In this role you will have the opportunity to leverage cutting-edge quantum and AI technologies to lead the design, implementation, and deployment in production environments of Generative AI systems, as well as working closely with cross-functional teams to integrate these models into our products. You will have the opportunity to work on challenging projects, contribute to cutting-edge research, and shape the future of Generative AI and LLM technologies.
As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will
-
Build end-to-end Agentic AI systems and RAG pipelines that combine retrieval, reasoning, and planning capabilities, integrating them into customer-facing solutions across cloud and edge environments.
-
Design, train, and optimize deep learning models, including Large and Small Language Models (LLMs and SMLs), applying fine-tuning strategies, as core components that power our Agentic AI and RAG systems of client-facing solutions.
-
Drive end-to-end ML system design, encompassing data sourcing and curation, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and continuous iteration - not just model development.
-
Develop and refine rigorous evaluation frameworks that go beyond model benchmarks to assess system performance on task success, key KPIs, and user-level outcomes across diverse domains.
-
Fine-tune and adapt language models using methods such as SFT, prompt engineering, and reinforcement or preference optimization, tailoring them to domain-specific tasks and real-world constraints.
-
Design and implement strategies for data curation and augmentation, including pre-training and post-training data pipelines, synthetic data generation, and task-specific dataset creation tailored to downstream applications.
-
Maintain high engineering standards, including clear documentation, reproducible experiments, robust version control, and well-structured ML pipelines.
-
Contribute to team learning and mentorship, guiding junior engineers and fostering best practices in ML system design, training workflows, evaluation, and integration with production systems.
-
Participate in code reviews, offering thoughtful, constructive feedback to maintain code quality, readability, and consistency.
-
Stay up-to-date with emerging trends in ML and Generative AI, and proactively recommend tools, frameworks, and methods to enhance our technology stack.
Requirements
-
Master's or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Data Science, Physics, Engineering, or related technical fields, with relevant industry experience.
-
3+ years of hands-on experience building, training, and deploying machine learning systems in production, including at least 2 years focused on Generative AI, RAG systems, or Agentic AI.
-
Proven experience designing, training, and fine-tuning deep learning models from scratch (e.g., LLMs, computer vision, transformer-based), including SFT, prompt engineering, and model alignment techniques.
-
Proven experience with agent-based architectures (task decomposition, tool use, reasoning workflows), RAG architectures (retrievers, vector databases, rerankers), and orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, LlamaIndex).
-
Strong understanding of end-to-end ML system design, including data sourcing and preparation, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
-
Experience with system-level evaluation and improvement, including LLM-as-a-judge methods, task-based success metrics, user-focused KPIs, human-in-the-loop validation, and ablations/error analysis to identify and address failure modes.
-
Solid experience with data curation and augmentation, including pre-training and post-training pipelines, and experience with synthetic data generation for downstream applications.
-
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a system-thinking and customer-oriented mindset to translate complex business needs into technical solutions.
-
Proficiency in Python and core ML/data libraries (e.g., PyTorch, HuggingFace, NumPy, Pandas), with strong software engineering practices (Docker, Git, CI/CD, reproducibility, code reviews) and experience building robust, modular, and scalable ML codebases.
-
Experience with cloud platforms (ideally AWS).
-
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment, document and explain design decisions, experimental results, and communicate complex ideas effectively.
-
Fluent in English., * Ph.D. in Machine Learning, Computer Science, or a related field with a focus on deep learning, generative AI, or agentic systems.
-
Demonstrated experience building and deploying end-to-end Agentic AI or RAG systems in production environments (e.g., with LangGraph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom orchestration frameworks).
-
Track record of open-source contributions, technical publications, or community engagement in the ML or generative AI ecosystem.
-
Ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams, collaborating with product, customer, and platform stakeholders to deliver practical, high-impact AI solutions.
-
Fluent in Spanish.
Benefits & conditions
-
Competitive annual salary starting from €55,000, based on experience and qualifications.
-
Two unique bonuses: signing bonus at incorporation and retention bonus at contract completion.
-
Relocation package (if applicable).
-
Fixed-term contract ending in June 2026.
-
Hybrid role and flexible working hours.
-
Be part of a fast-scaling Series B company at the forefront of deep tech.
-
Equal pay guaranteed.
-
International exposure in a multicultural, cutting-edge environment.
