ML Engineer

Requirements and responsibilities

Readable role content extracted into sections for faster review.

What you'll do

  • Build ML prototype vertical slices that connect ingest/processing to inference and visible product outcomes (search, insights, UX flows).
  • Create evaluation harnesses and decision artifacts: datasets, baselines, quality/latency/cost metrics, and go/no-go recommendations.
  • Package prototypes for adoption: containerize services, define reproducible deployments, and produce runbooks/checklists.
  • Partner with Research and Data Engineering on dataset curation, annotation loops, experiment tracking, and safe iteration.
  • Make prototypes operationally credible: instrumentation, monitoring, and security/compliance basics (PII handling, provenance mindset).

About You

  • 3+ years ML engineering/MLOps experience (level dependent), with evidence of shipping real systems.
  • Strong Python and hands-on PyTorch/Transformers; comfortable taking models from notebook to reproducible services.
  • Practical Kubernetes + containers experience; able to deploy and troubleshoot in production-like clusters (including offline/air-gapped constraints).
  • Strong evaluation discipline and monitoring mindset; comfortable communicating tradeoffs clearly.
  • Eligible to work in Germany; EU/NATO citizenship preferred and export-control screening applies.

Niceโ€‘toโ€‘haves

  • GPU serving/optimization experience (Triton/KServe, ONNX/TensorRT, batching, quantization).
  • Streaming/pipeline tooling (Kafka, Ray, Beam/Flink/Spark) and search/vector/graph integrations.
  • German language (B1+) and/or experience with regulated/public-sector datasets and workflows.

What We Offer

  • Modern ML stack in real constraints: Kubernetes, streaming, and hybrid/on-prem/air-gapped deployments.
  • Remote-first in Germany with regular Berlin workshops, 30 days vacation, equipment & learning budget.
  • High leverage: your prototypes and handoffs unblock multiple delivery teams.
