Build the ML function from a blank page: from the first model to the team that maintains it.
What you will do
- Build the team and set up the process: from hypothesis to a model in production
- Set the roadmap: anti-fraud on payments, anomalies in traffic, automatic node selection for users
- Answer to the owner for the function's metrics, not for the number of experiments
- Choose the training and deployment infrastructure and keep it from turning into a zoo
What we expect
- Two years or more leading an ML team, with a strong engineering background of your own
- Production ML systems you took all the way into operation, not ones that stopped on a laptop
- Python and the classic stack (scikit-learn, XGBoost/LightGBM), a grasp of binary classification metrics
- The ability to explain to the business why a model is wrong, and what that costs in money
Nice to have
- Anti-fraud or payment scoring
- Streaming data: Kafka, windowed aggregation, real-time inference
- MLOps: Docker, Kubernetes, Airflow, MLflow
- Experience hiring and mentoring
