You will collaborate with our innovative data scientists and software engineers in solving real-world business challenges using advanced machine learning techniques. You'll be accountable for something significant: products that impact people's lives.

No two days are the same. Everyday projects range from deep learning, research & development, algorithm development, natural language processing to ML infrastructure and deployment, while increasingly leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI technologies to build intelligent, adaptive solutions.

To thrive in this career as a Senior AI Engineer for the Spark team, you will apply your knowledge of designing and implementing scalable and robust Machine Learning and Generative AI systems using languages, frameworks and tooling such as Python, AWS and Databricks. You should have experience building models in the areas such as natural language processing, deep learning, classification algorithms, recommender systems, and LLM-based applications. Our best engineers in this role are independent thinkers and proactive problem solvers, and as a senior team member, you will be a role model for these behaviors.

You'll need to have some formal education in Computer Science or a related quantitative field and know design patterns and data structures. You have the skills to leverage existing models or create new models using the technologies above. But given the scale of our data sets and the complex problems we give you to solve, you will stay challenged and engaged with years of exciting projects ahead—all while growing your skills and progressing in a rewarding career.
