Careers / Engineering

Data & Applied ML Engineer

Build the data foundations that analytics and AI features depend on: pipelines, retrieval ingestion, model-ready datasets, and the quality systems that keep them trustworthy.

Employment
Full-time (contract to permanent)
Location
Remote — North America, Latin America, Europe, or Asia
Time zone
At least 4 hours of overlap with U.S. Eastern working hours
Apply for this role

Compensation and benefits are discussed openly with qualified candidates.

The work

What you will do

  • Design and operate data pipelines from ingestion through curated, documented models
  • Build retrieval ingestion for AI features — chunking, embedding, indexing, and refresh strategies
  • Establish data-quality checks, freshness monitoring, and lineage across pipelines
  • Create model-ready datasets and APIs product engineers can build on
  • Support analytics foundations: semantic layers, reporting models, and governed exports

Requirements

What we need to see

  • 4+ years building production data pipelines in Python and SQL
  • Orchestration experience (Airflow, Dagster, or similar) and warehouse modeling with dbt
  • Practical experience with embeddings and vector search in production
  • Strong data-quality instincts — you notice drift before dashboards do

Nice to have

What sets candidates apart

  • Production ML workflow experience beyond notebooks
  • Healthcare or financial data experience, with the governance sensibilities that come with it
  • Streaming or near-real-time pipeline experience
