EDB is building the next generation of AI agent infrastructure on top of Postgres including an Agent Hub, an Agent Memory layer, MCP, governance and trust controls, and enterprise-grade retrieval.

We're looking for an experienced Machine Learning (ML) Engineer to own the ML infrastructure spanning serving, evaluation, red-teaming, and continuous improvement for governance models. And turning Postgres into a first-class platform for AI agents.

What Your Impact Will Be

• Serving & evaluations: low-latency serving, eval pipelines, model registry.
• Research-to-production: <50ms inference via quantization/distillation, drift monitoring, shadow deployment, telemetry-to-training pipelines.
• Red-team harness: attack orchestration, scorecards, regression suites, CI gating.
• Self-improvement loop: continuous retraining, dataset curation from the audit trail, gated auto-rollout.

What you will bring:

• 4--7 years of professional machine learning software engineering experience, with hands-on work on LLM-based or agentic systems.
• Deep production ML serving experience (low-latency inference, quantization/distillation).
• Evaluation pipeline and model registry experience.
• Red-team/adversarial testing harness experience (CI-gated regression suites).
• Drift monitoring/shadow deployment experience.
• Fluency with SQL and PostgreSQL.
• Security first mindset and experience in audited environments.

What will give you an edge:

• Experience building auto-retraining loops from production telemetry/audit data.
• Familiarity with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), tool registries, and agent orchestration patterns.
• Postgres extension development in C or Rust, or contributions to the Postgres ecosystem.
