Job Description

Full-Stack Python Engineer: Building the Integration Bridge for Scalable ML Solutions

We are seeking an Intermediate Full-Stack Software Developer embedded directly within our Machine Learning team.

Rather than building or researching ML models, you are the crucial engineering bridge that makes our AI scalable, reliable, and accessible.

Day-to-day, you will sit within the ML squad, actively participating in agile ceremonies such as sprint planning and stand-ups alongside Data Scientists and MLOps Engineers.

The majority of your day will be spent designing robust backend services, building APIs, and creating integrations that wrap around our ML engines on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

All of your core development work to aid our Data Scientists will be executed in Python.

As a secondary function (approx. 20%), you will also step in to maintain and update existing web-based frontends, ensuring that our end-users have seamless interfaces to interact with our ML outputs.
