  • Help set technical direction across multiple teams and mentor other engineers
  • Partner with product and infrastructure teams to drive big-picture decisions

Our Tech Stack

  • Languages & Frameworks: Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow
  • Tools: Airflow, Spark, MLFlow, Databricks, Feature Store
  • Infrastructure: AWS + GCP, supporting real-time and batch workflows
  • Model Serving: Vector databases, scalable inference pipelines, model monitoring tools

What We’re Looking For

  • 2+ years of engineering experience, including 1+ years working on ML systems in production
  • Experience building and scaling recommendation, search, or personalization systems
  • Strong understanding of distributed systems, model performance, and production deployment
  • Able to design systems that balance speed, reliability, and cost
  • Experience working on large-scale marketplaces, e-commerce, or other consumer platforms

Why You’ll Love It Here

You’ll join a small but mighty team making a real difference in how people shop, discover, and sell online. You’ll have the freedom to lead major projects, contribute to technical strategy, and see your work drive real business results — all within a supportive, fast-paced environment.
