The Role

We are looking for an Applied Scientist / Applied ML Engineer to design, build, and deploy machine learning models that power pricing, bidding, and decisioning on a cross-border payments platform. This role owns problems end to end, from formulation to production, and partners closely with Product and Backend Engineering.

Key Responsibilities

1. End-to-End ML Ownership

   • Own end-to-end ML solutions for pricing, bidding, and risk decisioning.

   • Formulate model objectives from first principles, including loss functions, constraints, and metrics, and implement them as production-grade services.

2. Experimentation & Iteration

   • Design and run experiments, including A/B tests and offline evaluations, and iterate with clear success metrics.

3. Production Monitoring

   • Monitor models in production, investigate regressions, and continuously improve performance.

Requirements

Essential

• 3-7 years of experience as an ML Engineer, Applied Scientist, or Data Scientist in industry.

• Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Mathematics, Statistics, or equivalent practical experience.

• Strong Python skills, including pandas, NumPy, and scikit-learn, plus at least one of PyTorch, TensorFlow.

• Strong ML fundamentals, including supervised and unsupervised learning, model evaluation, regularization, feature engineering, and statistics.

• Experience designing models from first principles and shipping them to production, in batch or real-time.

• Hands-on experience with data pipelines and ETL, such as Airflow or Spark, and strong SQL for feature engineering.

• Experience integrating ML into REST or gRPC APIs and microservice architectures.

• Ability to design and interpret experiments with statistical rigor.
