• Understand and implement custom ML algorithms in a low latency environment
• Work on microservice architectures that run training, inference, and monitoring on thousands of ML models concurrently

What you'll bring to the table:

• Have the ability to take an ambiguously defined task and break it down into actionable steps
• Ability to follow through complex projects to completion, both by independent implementation and by coordinating others
• Have a deep understanding of algorithm and software design, concurrency, and data structures
• Experience in implementing probabilistic or machine learning algorithms
• Experience in designing scalable distributed systems
• A high GPA from a well-respected Computer Science program or equivalent experience in a competitive, innovative tech company
• Enjoy working in a friendly, collaborative environment with others
