Machine Learning Engineer (Inference & Deployment)

We are looking for a highly adaptable Machine Learning Engineer to bridge the gap between ML research and live production. In this role, you will own the end-to-end inference and deployment lifecycle, integrating models into a hybrid infrastructure consisting of Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform) serving stacks and on-premises Java-based streaming pipelines.

The single most important trait for this role is adaptability-you must be able to ramp up quickly on unfamiliar, evolving tech stacks while maintaining a strong problem-solving mindset from model handoff to user-facing behavior.

What You Will Do

• Deploy & Automate: Own deployment automation from model handoff to live serving on Google Cloud Platform, successfully integrating models into Java-based streaming pipelines.
• Benchmark & Evaluate: Assess new ML inference frameworks, conduct performance/quality testing, and perform model sampling to support researcher feedback loops.
• Monitor & Debug: Track real-world model behavior and troubleshoot issues across the full distributed stack.
• Collaborate: Partner closely with ML researchers to guide inference decisions, requiring enough core ML knowledge to establish a strong technical handshake.

• 10+ years of engineering experience with a strong foundation in ML inference, deployment, and quality testing.
• Demonstrated ability to learn and adapt rapidly to non-standard or unfamiliar technologies.
• Hands-on experience deploying models in cloud environments (Google Cloud Platform preferred).
• Working knowledge of distributed systems sufficient for effective end-to-end testing and debugging.
• Core ML knowledge to effectively benchmark models and collaborate with researchers.

Good-to-Have:

• Exposure to Java or JVM-based systems (model integration happens in Java, but deep expertise is not required).
• Familiarity with streaming data architectures.
• Experience operating in hybrid cloud and on-premises environments.

Education: Bachelor’’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer or Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
