Responsibilities
Own the technical vision and implementation of AI/ML‑enabled products and platforms (e.g., inference services, feature pipelines, model lifecycle tooling), driving solutions from design through production
Design cloud-native, highly available systems (APIs, microservices, event‑driven workflows) with clear SLOs, robust observability, and strong CI/CD practices
Write high-quality code in Python, Java, or TypeScript; contribute to frameworks and utilities; lead code reviews
Build both batch and streaming data pipelines, optimize model inference paths, and harden ML integration points
Select and implement appropriate ML approaches (supervised/unsupervised learning, NLP, recommendation systems, time series models, anomaly detection, and RL where applicable). Operationalize models with attention to drift, performance, and cost
Evaluate foundation models and classical ML techniques; determine when to use, tune, or build solutions based on data, latency, regulatory requirements, and ROI
Analyze product and operational data, design experiments, define success metrics, and build dashboards to guide prioritization and measure impact
Translate insights into backlog recommendations, architectural improvements, or model retraining plans
Influence architecture and strategy across engineering teams; lead design reviews and implementation efforts; write clear RFCs and executive-level updates
Partner closely with Product, Data, Security, and Compliance teams. Communicate trade-offs to senior management with clarity and brevity
Enforce coding standards and testing strategies (unit, integration, end‑to‑end) along with disciplined release practices
Champion responsible AI: model monitoring, bias testing, governance, data privacy, and security
Qualification
Required
8+ years building and operating production software; 2–4+ years applying AI/ML in shipped products (beyond research or POCs)

Strong hands-on experience with Postgres and DynamoDB
Proficiency in Python and either Java or TypeScript; familiarity with infrastructure-as-code, containers, and orchestration
Practical experience with ML pipelines (feature stores, training workflows, ML CI/CD, model registries), LLMs, and model serving/monitoring
Advanced data analysis skills: experiment design, A/B testing, statistical analysis, and metric definition
Exceptional communication skills: able to brief executives, align cross‑functional teams, and produce clear design docs and RFCs
Preferred
Payments industry experience (huge plus)
NLP (including RAG), recommendations, and anomaly detection in production systems
Performance engineering: profiling, optimization, and cost/latency tuning for inference workloads
Security, compliance, and governance for AI/ML systems (PII handling, auditability, access control)
Domain experience in payments, commerce, or integrations
