About the Role
As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer in our Applied ML & Research team, you'll drive the development of cutting-edge machine learning solutions that power critical features across our online gaming platforms. Your work will directly impact platform security, user experience, and large-scale data-driven decision-making for hundreds of thousands of users daily. You’ll lead by example, contribute high-quality code, and help shape the ML roadmap in the organization through cross-functional collaboration.
What you’ll be doing:
- Partner with product and engineering to identify and execute machine learning use cases that deliver measurable impact
- Design, build, and iterate on machine learning solutions (e.g., classifiers, regressors, ranking/retrieval, and rule-based components)
- Contribute across the ML lifecycle: data exploration, feature engineering, training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring
- Implement reliable training/inference pipelines and help improve reproducibility, testing, and observability
- Communicate model behavior, trade-offs, and results clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Contribute to team standards: code quality, documentation, experimentation hygiene, and responsible ML practices
We're looking for someone with:
- Bachelor’s degree in Machine Learning, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field (Master’s a plus)
- 4+ years of industry experience building and deploying ML systems
- Solid proficiency in Python and familiarity with common ML libraries (e.g., PyTorch, XGBoost) and SQL
- Deep understanding of machine learning fundamentals, including experience with Large Language Models (LLMs) and other emerging ML technologies
- Demonstrated ability to write maintainable, tested code, participate in code reviews, and follow engineering best practices
- Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to break down ambiguous problems into scoped tasks and deliver iteratively
Bonus points for:
- Familiarity with ML tooling such as MLflow, ZenML, or Metaflow.
- Hands-on experience with AWS services (e.g., EC2, EKS, CloudFormation, Cognito).
- Exposure to streaming data platforms like Kafka.
- Contributions to open-source ML projects.
