About the Role

This role is for a hands‑on ML Engineer who can design, train, and productionize models powering search relevance, retrieval, personalization, and LLM‑based conversational experiences at a massive scale.

You will work closely with backend, platform, and catalog enrichment teams to deliver high‑quality ML components under tight performance and latency constraints.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and improve search ranking, retrieval, and query understanding models.

Develop ML components for Conversational Search :

  • Multi‑turn context handling
  • Query intent detection and classification
  • Retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) pipelines
  • Reasoning workflows (ReAct, static + dynamic agent flows)
  • Design and optimize embedding models, vector stores, and similarity search systems.
  • Build personalized ranking and recommendation models using deep learning.
  • Work on large‑scale ML systems optimized for :

  • Low latency
  • High throughput
  • Cost‑efficient inference
  • Implement ML pipeline best practices (versioning, monitoring, A / B testing, observability).
  • Collaborate with platform teams to integrate ML services across search, recommendations, and conversational agents.
  • Develop caching strategies (prompt cache, vector cache, similarity caching) to hit strict SLA targets.
  • Contribute to long‑term roadmap : foundational retrieval models, multi‑objective optimization, and user lifecycle modeling.
  • Required Qualifications

  • 4-10 years of experience in Machine Learning / Applied ML engineering.
  • Strong foundations in ML, deep learning, Transformers, and neural retrieval.
  • Hands‑on experience with :

  • Search systems (retrieval + ranking)
  • Recommendation models
  • Embedding models & vector databases
  • TensorFlow / PyTorch
  • Proven experience building production‑grade ML systems at scale.
  • Familiarity with LLMs, RAG architectures, prompt engineering, and agent workflows.
  • Strong coding skills (Python) and experience with modern ML stack (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Faiss / ScaNN, Triton, etc.).
  • Ability to work closely with backend teams to deploy models in distributed systems.
  • Excellent problem‑solving skills and comfort working on ambiguous, high‑impact problems.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with conversational AI, chat‑based retrieval, or multi‑turn dialog modeling.
  • Experience in media, streaming, sports data, or large catalog discovery.
  • Knowledge of micro‑drama, short‑video personalization, or multi‑objective recommendation systems.
  • Strong understanding of scalability patterns : batching, async orchestration, and caching layers.
  • What you get

  • Best in class salary : We hire only the best, and we pay accordingly.
  • Proximity Talks : Meet other designers, engineers, and product geeks — and learn from experts in the field.
  • Keep on learning with a world‑class team : Work with the best in the field, challenge yourself constantly, and learn something new every day.
