Machine Learning is a cornerstone at Taskrabbit, and we're looking for a seasoned Senior Machine Learning Engineer to join our team and help shape the future of ML/AI at Taskrabbit. This is a unique, full-stack role for an individual who is passionate about the entire machine learning lifecycle—from initial research and model development to building the robust infrastructure required to deploy and scale your work. As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer, you will tackle exciting challenges that directly impact how people discover and connect with home services on the Taskrabbit platform. You will play a crucial role in advancing our capabilities in areas like search ranking, content discovery, and recommender systems. You will collaborate closely with data scientists and other engineers to design and implement novel algorithms, and you will partner with software engineers to ensure the scalability, reliability, and optimization of our models in production.

Job Responsibility:

Model Development & Research: Research, design, and implement machine learning models to solve key business problems in areas like search ranking, recommendations, and content discovery
End-to-End ML Lifecycle: Own the entire lifecycle of ML models, including feature engineering, training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring
Infrastructure & Scalability: Build scalable and reliable ML infrastructure and data pipelines that support reproducible feature engineering and machine learning model deployment in real-time, near real-time, and batch processes
Performance & Quality: Build monitoring services to understand data quality and model performance of complex systems, and collaborate with engineering and science teams to optimize existing algorithms for training and evaluation
Software Engineering Excellence: Independently solve complex problems, write clean, efficient, and sustainable code, and actively participate in code reviews, documentation, and the full software engineering lifecycle

Requirements:

BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Statistics, Operations Research, or a related quantitative field
3+ years of industry experience building and deploying high-quality, production-grade machine learning models and systems
Strong theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience in machine learning, particularly in areas like search, ranking, recommender systems, or NLP
Solid software engineering skills with proficiency in one or more programming languages, including Python
Experience with popular ML libraries like Scikit-learn, lightgbm, xgboost, TensorFlow, PyTorch, etc.
Proficiency in SQL is also required for writing complex queries and transforming data
Experience building REST API-based services
Experience with modern data and ML technologies, such as Docker, Kubernetes, Kafka, Airflow, data warehouses (eg snowflake, redshift or BigQuery), and data lakes
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to present complex findings and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
A passion for quickly learning new technologies and a drive to solve challenging problems

Nice to have:

Familiarity with dbt (Data Build Tool) is a plus for transforming and testing data
Familiarity with tools for Infrastructure as Code, such as Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines
