The goal of a Machine Learning Engineer at Scale is to bring techniques in the fields of computer vision, deep learning and deep reinforcement learning, or natural language processing into a production environment to improve Scale's products and customer experience. Our research engineers take advantage of our unique access to massive datasets to deliver improvements to our customers.
We are building a large hybrid human-machine system in service of ML pipelines for Federal Government customers. We currently complete millions of tasks a month, and will grow to complete billions of tasks monthly.
Take state of the art models developed internally and from the community, use them in production to solve problems for our customers and taskers.
Take models currently in production, identify areas for improvement, improve them using retraining and hyperparameter searches, then deploy without regressing on core model characteristics
Work with product and research teams to identify opportunities for improvement in our current product line and for enabling upcoming product lines
Work with massive datasets to develop both generic models as well as fine tune models for specific products
Build the scalable ML platform to automate our ML service
Be able, and willing, to multi-task and learn new technologies quickly
Extensive experience using computer vision, deep learning and deep reinforcement Learning, or natural language processing in a production environment
Solid background in algorithms, data structures, and object-oriented programming
Strong programing skills in Python or Javascript, experience in Tensorflow or PyTorch
Graduate degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning or Artificial Intelligence specialization
Experience working with cloud technology stack (eg. AWS or GCP) and developing machine learning models in a cloud environment
