What We Need You are an exceptional software engineer with a strong track record of deploying and operating ML models in production, particularly as low-latency, high-availability prediction services. You can deploy ML models as real-time, near-real-time, or batch services depending on the requirements of the use case. You bring deep, hands-on machine learning experience with a working command of ML algorithm types and tasks, the end-to-end ML lifecycle, and modern modeling and serving frameworks. You operate with autonomy and judgment. You're a solution-oriented, creative problem solver and a self-starter who drives initiatives end-to-end: scoping ambiguous problems, making sound architectural choices across multi-component systems, and shipping to deadline. As a senior engineer, you raise the bar around you by setting technical direction, mentoring others, and championing engineering standards across the team and wider ML community. What You Will Do <ul> <li>Partner with ML scientists, data engineers, central tech, and game studios to deploy ML models as production-grade decision services and integrate them into larger systems and live products. </li> <li>Own and mature Machine Learning Ops practice: CI/CD for models, model registry and feature stores, real-time inference at scale, monitoring, drift detection, and reproducibility. Advocate for engineering best practices across the community. </li> <li>Design and rapidly prototype ML-powered products for applications including recommenders, matchmaking, cheat/toxicity intervention, and economy balancing. </li> <li>Work closely with studio devs and central tech to plan and execute the integration of ML applications into games on launch timelines. </li> <li>Identify, evaluate, and pilot opportunities to apply GenAI/LLM to enable new use cases, and translate promising concepts into secure, scalable, and measurabl
