The team you’ll work with:

Reporting directly to the VP of Applied ML, you’ll be an integral part of the Applied Machine Learning (ML) team within the broader AI division. This team sits at the intersection of cutting-edge machine learning and business impact, collaborating closely with the Research & Development side of the AI team, the Data Engineering team, as well as cross-functional stakeholders like Product and Sales. Together, this collaborative environment drives the implementation and scaling of machine learning models to solve real-world problems. You’ll be focused on developing and maintaining models that directly support customer experiences and business goals, and you’ll regularly work across these teams to align the technical aspects of the models with the company’s strategic vision.

Hear what the team has to say – “...the fantastic team I work with creates an environment where we encourage each other and collaborate, which naturally leads to creative ideas. The complex technical challenges we face not only keep things interesting but also push us to find unique solutions, and AI constantly inspires me to excel in my role.” - Elizabeth, VP of Applied ML.
