About this Machine Learning Engineer role at Waveapps
Here's How You Make an Impact:
Develop & Deploy: Focus on the hands-on building, training, and operational deployment of machine learning models, ensuring they perform reliably within existing production environments.
Champion Technical Standards: Advocate for top-tier practices across coding, testing, and MLOps processes. Navigate ambiguity autonomously to refine pipelines and elevate ML engineering workflows.
Optimize & Scale: Construct resilient, cost-efficient ML & AI use cases. Balance sustaining established models with accelerating the rollout of highly scalable, modern systems.
Partner & Collaborate: Team up with cross-functional stakeholders, including risk specialists, product leads, and software developers, to convert strategic needs into technical specs and smoothly embed ML features into live applications.
Establish Controls & Governance: Uphold stringent benchmarks for model dependability, fairness, and compliance. Direct the integration of lineage tracking and data protection workflows into our automated systems.
Track & Evaluate: Formulate comprehensive observability systems to capture model health and key operational metrics, ensuring machine learning investments yield quantifiable organizational value.
You Thrive Here By Possessing the Following:
Experience: Minimum of 3–5 years of professional experience in machine learning engineering, with a proven track record of deploying models into production environments.
Technical Depth: Deep understanding of the modern data stack, including data ingestion workflows and experience working with curated data warehouses like Databricks or Redshift.
Cloud Proficiency: At least 3 years of hands-on experience with AWS infrastructure, specifically SageMaker, Spark/AWS Glue, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC), Terraform.
Orchestration Expert: High proficiency in managing multi-stage workflows using Airflow or similar orchestration systems to automate training and deployment cycles.
MLOps Toolkit: Practical experience with MLflow, Kubeflow, or SageMaker Feature Store to support the end-to-end machine learning lifecycle.
Governance Mindset: Familiarity with model governance practices (lineage, fairness, and privacy) and experience using data cataloging tools for compliance.
Communication: Strong ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and influence project direction.
Industry Context: Experience in FinTech or Financial Risk environments is a significant advantage.
