Our expertise in digital transformation powers businesses to accelerate service delivery, drive customer engagement, and foster growth.

We are looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to lead the end-to-end development and lifecycle management of machine learning models powered by proprietary data, within a Microsoft-centric technology environment. This is a highly impactful role at the core of our AI ecosystem, responsible for building scalable, production-grade ML systems on Azure that directly power intelligent product features.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and deploy end-to-end machine learning models using proprietary datasets, primarily within Azure Machine Learning
• Own the full ML lifecycle, including data preparation, feature engineering, model training, evaluation, and validation
• Collaborate with Data Scientists to identify and prioritize high-impact ML opportunities
• Work with Principal AI Engineers to ensure models align with system architecture and engineering best practices across the Azure ecosystem
• Package and expose trained models as scalable APIs (Azure Functions, Azure App Service, or AKS) for consumption by AI Engineers and downstream systems
• Build and maintain model pipelines using Azure ML Pipelines / Azure DevOps, including versioning, retraining, and continuous improvement workflows
• Monitor model performance in production using Azure Monitor and Application Insights, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and relevance over time
• Troubleshoot model drift, data quality issues, and performance bottlenecks
• Partner with data engineering teams working in Azure Synapse, Azure Data Factory, and Azure Databricks to ensure clean, reliable data pipelines feeding ML workflows
• Support integration of models with Microsoft-native AI services, including Azure OpenAI Service and Azure AI Studio, where applicable
  

Qualifications

• Strong experience in machine learning engineering, with production deployment experience on Microsoft Azure
• Proficiency in Python and ML frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn)
• Hands-on experience with Azure Machine Learning (AML Studio, AML SDK/CLI v2, endpoints, pipelines, model registry)
• Experience with data preprocessing, feature engineering, and model evaluation techniques, using Azure Databricks and/or Azure Synapse Analytics
• Hands-on experience deploying ML models as APIs or microservices using Azure-native compute (Azure Functions, App Service, or Azure Kubernetes Service)
• Familiarity with MLOps practices on Azure, including model versioning (AML Model Registry), CI/CD via Azure DevOps, monitoring, and retraining pipelines
• Experience working with large-scale or proprietary datasets stored in Azure Data Lake Storage / Azure SQL
• Strong software engineering fundamentals (testing, scalability, performance optimization) with familiarity in .NET or C# environments an asset given the broader Microsoft stack
• Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams in a Microsoft-centric enterprise environment
  

Nice-to-Have

• Experience with Azure OpenAI Service, Azure AI Studio, or Azure Cognitive Services
• Familiarity with containerization and orchestration tools (Docker, Azure Kubernetes Service)
• Experience with real-time or low-latency ML systems on Azure (Event Hubs, Stream Analytics)
• Exposure to LLMs or hybrid AI/ML systems, particularly via Azure OpenAI or Microsoft Copilot ecosystem
• Experience building data pipelines with Azure Data Factory, Synapse Pipelines, or Databricks workflows
• Microsoft certifications (e.g., Azure AI Engineer Associate, Azure Data Scientist Associate, Azure Solutions Architect) considered a plus
• Exposure to Power Platform (Power BI, Power Automate) for surfacing ML outputs to business stakeholders
