Why join us:
Key Responsibilities
- Drive closure of systemic gaps after incidents rather than only resolving the immediate issue.
- life insurance coverage
- Ensure every production model has clear lineage (data, features, code, artifacts, validation, deployment history) and drive adoption of model registry and metadata tooling across ML teams.
- Set the standards ML teams use to assess model health, performance, and trustworthiness in production.
- Partner with MLEs to establish validation checks, rollback criteria, canary strategies, shadow testing, and release health reviews.
- Define and operate automated gates that prevent bad models or bad data from being promoted to production.
- Solid SQL skills and comfort investigating data quality, feature distributions, model outputs, pipeline behavior, and production anomalies.
- Build dashboards, logs, and diagnostic workflows that progress quickly from “recommendations look off” to root cause, with context captured across candidates, features, scores, ranking decisions, and downstream outcomes.
- Able to reason about ML operational failure modes: stale features, distribution shift, training-serving skew, delayed labels, and offline-online metric gaps.
- Solid written and verbal communication expertise, including the ability to explain ML system health, risks, incidents, and tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Define and lead the operational strategy for production ML systems, including monitoring, traceability, deployment safety, incident response, and post-deployment validation.
- Lead diagnostic tooling and root-cause analysis
