Job summary

Syndesus, Inc. in New York City is seeking a Senior ML/AI Engineer to design and ship intelligent systems at the core of our platform.

You will build models for demand forecasting, consumer intelligence, competitive analysis, and autonomous decision-making in production environments. Join a team pushing ML, graph databases, and agentic AI at scale, with hands-on ownership from prototype to production, strong emphasis on reliability, latency, and collaboration.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in applied machine learning and AI with models deployed in production.
• MS or PhD in CS, ML, Statistics, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Proficiency in Python with PyTorch, TensorFlow, and scikit-learn.
• Strong foundation in statistical analysis, predictive modeling, and time series forecasting.
• Experience building applied agentic AI/ML systems.
• Experience with NLP, LLMs, and RAG architectures.
• Experience with large-scale datasets and distributed computing.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and deploy ML models for demand forecasting, time series prediction, consumer sentiment analysis, and anomaly detection at enterprise scale.
• Develop and iterate on the company’s agentic AI architecture — systems that reason across heterogeneous data sources and take autonomous action.
• Build and maintain robust ML pipelines spanning data preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, evaluation, and production deployment.
• Architect and continuously improve the production graph RAG system, which is a core technical differentiator for the platform.
• Design RAG systems and LLM integrations that power natural language interfaces and autonomous workflows.
• Partner with backend engineers to ensure models are production-grade — optimized for latency, reliability, and scale.
• Own model performance end-to-end, including monitoring, retraining, and ongoing improvement in production.
• Stay current on AI research and bring relevant advances into the platform.
