About the role

View original

Technical

Good grounding in the mathematical foundations of ML and a relevant degree (computer science, simulation science, or equivalent).

3-5 years of hands-on experience designing, training, and deploying complex ML/DL models in production using state-of-the-art frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, XGBoost).

Proven ability to build models that serve as autonomous decision systems, applied to critical business problems with large, heterogeneous data.

Strong Python engineering fundamentals: clean, modular, testable code; data pipelines; model versioning; CI/CD for ML; packaging for production (e.g. Docker, service wrappers).

Solid ML experimentation practice: experiment tracking from scratch (e.g. W&B, MLflow), model evaluation, and iterative improvement tied to measurable business outcomes.

Solid understanding of data transformation techniques, languages, and libraries (e.g. Pandas, Polars, SQL, dbt).

Ability to work independently: break down larger problem definitions into concrete tasks, navigate model choices, and deliver production-ready ML implementations end-to-end.

Leadership & Collaboration

Comfortable working independently on assigned ML tasks while staying closely coordinated with cross-functional teams.

Willingness to mentor junior peers on code quality, testing, and ML best practices.

Able to contribute meaningfully to feature-level design discussions and communicate technical trade-offs clearly.

Mindset

Ownership-driven: takes small-to-medium ML/DL subsystems from problem framing through to production deployment.

Curious and adaptable, applying and adjusting state-of-the-art approaches to new, domain-specific manufacturing problems.

Outcome-focused, tying experimentation and iterative improvement to measurable business results.

Nice to Have

Experience with manufacturing/industrial ML applications.

Familiarity with LLM integration and Generative AI approaches.

Experience with cloud-based ML infrastructure (e.g., AWS SageMaker, Snowflake).

Exposure to MLOps practices: CI/CD pipelines, model monitoring, and observability.

Experience collaborating in international teams across time zones.

What This Role Is Not:

This is not a pure GenAI engineer role: you will develop complex DL models using tabular and non-tabular, domain-specific data - 3D geometries, CAD-derived features, technical drawings, machining data, and manufacturing metadata.

This is not a Data Analyst role: models you build run in production and make final, customer-facing decisions, not small ML models that create recommendations for a human analyst.

One address, no account. We’ll tell you when matching roles go live.
