Please note that submissions received without all the requested information will be automatically disqualified and rejected.
Key Responsibilities:
* Design, build, and deploy machine learning models for tasks such as user behaviour prediction, content recommendations, and fraud detection.
* Develop and maintain end-to-end machine learning pipelines from data collection and preprocessing to model deployment and monitoring.
* Collaborate with Data Engineers and Product Teams to seamlessly integrate AI capabilities into product workflows.
* Build real-time ML systems capable of handling dynamic data streams and providing low-latency predictions.
* Fine-tune and optimize existing machine learning models to improve performance, scalability, and efficiency.
* Conduct A/B testing and model validation to measure the impact of deployed models.
* Implement robust model monitoring systems to detect drift, bias, and performance degradation in production.
* Collaborate with Data Engineers to ensure high-quality, preprocessed datasets for training and inference.
* Stay informed about emerging trends in AI/ML, exploring new technologies and techniques for potential integration.
* Create comprehensive technical documentation for models, pipelines, and experiments.
Requirements:
* Minimum 3+ years of experience as a Machine Learning Engineer, Data Scientist, or related role.
* Excellent command of the English Language in all forms.
* Previous start-up experience would be an advantage.
* Proficiency in Python, R, or Scala, with experience using ML libraries and frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn).
* Experience with tools like MLflow, Kubeflow, or similar platforms for managing ML pipelines.
* Hands-on experience with Hadoop, Spark, or distributed computing frameworks.
* Proficiency in SQL and NoSQL databases for accessing and preprocessing large datasets.
* Familiarity with cloud ML services (e.g., AWS SageMaker, GCP AI Platform, Azure ML).
* Experience deploying ML models in production environments using tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines.
* Solid foundation in probability, statistics, and experimental design.
* Strong ability to work cross-functionally with Data Scientists, Engineers, and Product Teams.
* Analytical mindset with excellent problem-solving and debugging skills.
Ideal Candidate Profile:
* A passionate AI enthusiast who thrives on building systems that bridge innovation and user experience.
* Strong communicator, capable of explaining complex ML concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
* Adaptable and excited about solving real-world problems with AI and machine learning.
* Detail-oriented, with a strong focus on building scalable, efficient, and robust ML systems.
* Continuously curious about cutting-edge AI technologies and eager to experiment with new approaches.
