  • Contribute to comprehensive engineering roadmaps that align with company goals and product strategy
  • Contribute to or interface with tooling and infrastructure projects to improve model training, experimentation, and enterprise product deployment infrastructure
  • Operate in a metrics and measurement-led culture designing and challenging benchmarks to continually measure quality and robustness of solutions
