This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys building at scale and operating in real production environments.

Responsibilities

Lead the design and delivery of production generative artificial intelligence products and reusable backend application programming interfaces for firmwide adoption

Architect scalable systems that combine large enterprise datasets with large language and multimodal models

Set technical direction for model-enabled services, including quality, latency, throughput, and cost targets

Partner with cloud engineering and site reliability engineering teams to deliver resilient architectures, observability, and operational readiness

Drive translation of research concepts into production-ready capabilities through evaluation, iteration, and hardening

Establish engineering standards for reliability, security, and responsible artificial intelligence controls across the product lifecycle

Own delivery planning and execution, including risks, dependencies, and stakeholder communication

Define and manage objectives and key results aligned to business outcomes, adoption, and return on investment

Mentor and develop engineers through coaching, technical reviews, and role modeling best practices

Troubleshoot critical production issues, lead root-cause analysis, and implement long-term preventative improvements

Qualifications

Minimum

PhD in a quantitative discipline such as Computer Science, Mathematics, or Statistics, or equivalent practical experience

7+ years of experience in machine learning engineering and/or applied software engineering delivering production systems

3+ years of technical leadership experience, including leading delivery for complex cross-functional initiatives

Demonstrated experience owning enterprise machine learning services, including reliability, incident management, and service-level outcomes

Strong fundamentals in statistics, optimization, and machine learning theory with applied expertise in natural language processing and/or computer vision

Hands-on experience implementing distributed, multi-threaded, scalable systems (for example Ray, Horovod, or DeepSpeed)

Proven ability to design and scale service-oriented architectures and application programming interfaces with high availability and performance requirements

Experience defining success metrics and writing clear objectives and key results aligned to business expectations

Strong judgment to align technical decisions with governance, risk, and control requirements for responsible artificial intelligence

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with ability to influence across senior technical and business audiences

Preferred

Experience designing and implementing machine learning pipelines using directed acyclic graph frameworks (for example Kubeflow, DVC, or Ray)

Experience building batch and streaming microservices exposed via gRPC and/or GraphQL

Demonstrable experience with parameter-efficient fine-tuning, quantization, and quantization-aware fine-tuning for large language models

Experience with multimodal large language model use cases (text plus image, speech, or video)

Experience with advanced prompting and reasoning approaches such as chain-of-thought, tree-of-thought, or graph-of-thought

Experience establishing evaluation frameworks and production monitoring for model quality, safety, and drift

Experience building reusable platforms that enable other teams to ship model-enabled products faster
