About the Role :

We are looking for an experienced Senior Machine Learning Engineer with deep expertise in statistical and machine learning techniques, large-scale data processing, and model deployment in cloud environments. The ideal candidate will be a self-starter with strong problem-solving skills and hands-on experience in building and deploying ML models using big data technologies like PySpark and cloud platforms like Amazon SageMaker .

Key Responsibilities :

  • Design, develop, and deploy scalable machine learning models for real-world business problems using structured and unstructured data.
  • Analyze large datasets using PySpark and other distributed computing frameworks to extract insights and prepare features for ML pipelines.
  • Apply a wide range of statistical, machine learning, and deep learning techniques , including but not limited to regression, classification, clustering, time-series forecasting, and NLP.
  • Own end-to-end ML pipelines from data ingestion, preprocessing, training, validation, tuning, and deployment.
  • Utilize Amazon SageMaker or similar platforms for building, training, and deploying models in a production-grade environment.
  • Collaborate closely with data engineers, data scientists, and product teams to integrate models with business workflows.
  • Monitor and improve model performance, scalability, and reliability in production.
  • Contribute to setting up and maintaining the ML environment and tooling (including environment configuration, CI / CD pipelines for ML, model versioning, etc.).

Required Qualifications :

  • 7+ years of experience in machine learning, data science, or related fields.
  • Strong programming skills in Python with experience in ML libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, XGBoost, TensorFlow, PyTorch).
  • Hands-on experience with PySpark for big data processing and model development.
  • Proficient in building models on large-scale datasets (terabytes to petabytes).
  • Solid understanding of statistical analysis , probability, hypothesis testing, and experimental design.
  • Experience with Amazon SageMaker (or similar cloud-based ML platforms).
  • Strong knowledge of ML Ops practices including version control, model monitoring, and retraining strategies.
  • Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and CI / CD practices for ML projects is a plus.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to clearly explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • Master's or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative discipline.
  • Experience with workflow orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow, Kubeflow).
  • Prior experience in domains like Manufacturing, finance, healthcare, or e-commerce is a plus.
