Job description

Stop building AI that never meets production. Build systems that actually make impact. Most AI roles stop at tweaking models or working on proof‑of‑concepts. Yours won’t.

At ML6, you design, build, and deploy AI solutions that are used in production at companies like ASML, Bolt Energie and Randstad.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

• Take up a tech lead role on a per‑project basis
• Work end‑to‑end: from data to production
• See your solutions live in real‑world environments
• Combine AI, software engineering, and business impact
• High ownership and autonomy in your work
• Collaborate with smart, driven engineers

THE IMPACT YOU MAKE

You are more than an engineer. You are a Tech Lead, builder, and consultant in one.

• Design and build end‑to‑end AI solutions
• Take systems from idea to production deployment
• Make architecture decisions and ensure scalability
• Lead teams of engineers
• Translate business challenges into technical solutions
• Work with Python, ML frameworks, GenAI, and cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure)
• Build scalable systems using MLOps and CI/CD
• Lend your technical expertise to client conversations to start new opportunities

Time allocation: 70% client project work + 30% research, internal (domain) work and more. Note that ML6 is not an outsourcing firm, our agents work on projects together with a team of colleagues where autonomy is highly valued.

WHAT YOU BRING

• 4+ years* of working experience as a software, ML or AI engineer
• Proven track record in delivering end‑to‑end solutions (to production)
• Experience within the GenAI space (currently hiring for this domain)
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Experience leading projects or small technical teams
• Strong communication skills (technical and non‑technical) in English
• Familiarity with MLOps principles and a passion for building robust, scalable systems

*We value talent at every stage. If you’re still building towards four years of relevant experience, check out our medior vacancy.
