We are seeking a
Senior Machine Learning Engineer
to join a leading Machine Learning Science team within a computational biology research environment. This role is ideal for a hands-on engineer experienced in building scalable, distributed deep learning pipelines and AI/ML systems in cloud environments. You will enable the development of state-of-the-art DL models on large, complex datasets, collaborating closely with ML scientists, computational biologists, and software engineers.
What we're looking for
- MS or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Software Engineering, or related fields, with AI/ML emphasis.
- 5+ years of industry experience in developing AI/ML software engineering pipelines.
- Proficiency in Python (preferred), Java, C/C++, Julia, or similar languages.
- Hands-on experience with ML/DL frameworks: PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, or Scikit-learn.
- Expertise in scalable and distributed computing platforms (e.g., Ray, DeepSpeed) and ML developer tools (TensorBoard, WandB, MLflow).
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and deploying ML/AI pipelines in cloud environments.
- Knowledge of containerization (Docker) and orchestration tools (Kubernetes) for scalable ML solutions.
- Experience managing large datasets and optimizing high-complexity data workflows.
- Proficiency with version control (Git) and CI/CD practices.
- Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across disciplines.
- Experience with large-scale genomics or biological datasets.
- Experience with multimodal datasets (sequence, text, image, etc.).
- GPU/Accelerator programming and kernel development (CUDA, Triton, XLA).
- Infrastructure-as-code and ML infrastructure best practices.
- Contributions to relevant DL projects (e.g., GitHub).
If you are passionate about building cutting-edge ML infrastructure and want to support high-impact scientific research, this is an exceptional opportunity to make a real-world impact.
