Senior Machine Learning Engineer

The Job At-A-Glance:

Join a fast-growing AI engineering team building the next generation of intelligent products for the financial services industry. As a Machine Learning Engineer, you'll design and deliver production-ready AI solutions, develop the tools, APIs, and backend services that enable them, and help shape the future of our AI platform. From evaluation frameworks, deployment pipelines, and microservice-based AI capabilities to next-generation agentic workflows, you'll have the opportunity to work across the stack, prototype new ideas, and turn innovation into real customer value. We're looking for engineers who are passionate about technology, committed to building high-quality, enterprise-grade software, and who thrive in collaborative environments. The ideal candidate stays current with the rapidly evolving AI landscape, enjoys solving meaningful problems, and is excited to help build innovative solutions alongside a team that values creativity, ownership, continuous learning, and shipping great products.

A Typical Day:

• Build, test, and optimize production-ready LLM agents leveraging multi-step reasoning, prompt engineering, retrieval, memory, and tool-calling capabilities.
• Develop scalable evaluation pipelines (Evals) to continuously measure accuracy, task completion, latency, cost efficiency, safety, and hallucination rates.
• Integrate agentic workflows with external platforms, vector databases, microservices, MCP, and internal APIs to enable reliable context retrieval and automated action-taking.
• Fine-tune domain-specific LLMs using modern adaptation techniques like supervised fine-tuning (SFT), LoRA/PEFT, and preference optimization to maximize performance.
• Productionize AI services across cloud and backend architecture, implementing security guardrails, observability, and robust deployment pipelines.
• Track production metrics to identify data drift, manage feedback loops, implement retuning strategies, and systematically upgrade model and prompt performance.
• Partner with product, data, and engineering teams to prototype emerging AI tech, navigate technical tradeoffs, and scale early-stage concepts into enterprise-grade software.

Bring Your Passion, Do What You Love. Here’s What We’re Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field with 5+ years of related experience, an advanced degree with 3+ years of experience, or equivalent practical work experience.
• 5+ years of professional software/ML/AI engineering experience with demonstrated ownership of production systems. Proficiency in Python is required, alongside experience with backend languages (such as C#, Java, TypeScript) to build robust APIs, microservices, and data integrations.
• Hands-on experience developing modern AI patterns, including LLM applications, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), agentic workflows, multi-step reasoning, and model/tool integration.
• Proven track record building and operating AI/ML systems in production, including model evaluation frameworks (Evals), monitoring, safety guardrails, continuous retuning, and observability.
• Experience deploying and scaling cloud-native infrastructure, containers, and automated pipelines. Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and MLOps practices is highly valued.
• Ability and willingness to work across the full stack—bridging AI models, backend services, cloud infrastructure, data pipelines, and application interfaces.

• Strong sense of ownership, technical curiosity, and comfort navigating ambiguity to establish best practices in an evolving AI landscape.
