You will collaborate closely with data scientists, product teams and engineers to implement state-of-the-art solutions that power our products and services through continuous innovation. What you’ll do Own the end-to-end lifecycle of machine learning projects, from data collection and preprocessing to model deployment, monitoring, and maintenance in a production environment.
