Technical Lead

Lead Machine Learning Engineer

As a Technical Lead on the Technical Engagements team you will be challenged—and trusted—on day one to be a core contributor to the projects and direction of the company. You will be a key representative and solutions provider to project sites and customers where our proprietary data platform is deployed. You will be leading and working alongside a team of data scientists, software engineers, and site reliability engineers to transform machine learning models into functional products. You will use your expertise to integrate and apply the proprietary data platform, and rapidly prototype and deliver machine learning capabilities to our customers through custom algorithms and software systems. You will tackle real-world problems as they unfold, utilizing your technical expertise and communication skills to provide reliable and scalable solutions. You are right for this challenge if you:

• value and possess technical expertise and you push the boundaries of your own capabilities
• are outcome-driven, not requirements-driven
• know that customer-facing activities, technical communications, and time management skills are all important
• are passionate about the intersection of Software Engineering and Data Science

This role both allows and requires flexibility in work location. At times, you will be tasked with on-site travel to customer locations. At other times, you can be based in a location of your choice, or visit our Austin, Texas headquarters. Potential projects include:

• Development of machine learning models and custom analytic algorithms on image, video, text, geospatial, time-series, and/or tabular data sets
• Orchestration and automation of complex data engineering and analytic pipelines
• Implementation of and integration with modern event-driven and microservices architectures
• Everything as Code
• Implement and deploy software into cloud environments
• Opportunity to conduct mission-critical field work

We believe in constant curiosity and peer-driven learning. As a Technical Team Lead for Engagements on our team you will learn about— or teach— the latest software technologies and processes, participate in open-source projects, and take part in pair programming. You will be able to grow your skills in:

• Python, PyTorch, NumPy
• Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, kOps
• React, Typescript, Angular
• Flyte

Requirements:

• 8 years of relevant experience in IT
• 4-5 years of experience programming with Python (PyTorch and/or NumPy exp is a plus)
• Experience with DevOps tooling and best practices (Git, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD)
• Active Top Security clearance
• Ability to travel up to 25% of time

Nice to have:

• Experience with React, Vue, or Angular
• Experience with Tensorflow
• Knowledge of messaging systems such as Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar
