About the role: We’re looking for a Staff Machine Learning Engineer who will serve as a technical leader across one or two small ML Engineering teams , working on key services within our ML infrastructure. This is a hands-on architecture and design role with a strong coding component.

You will work closely with other senior engineers, product teams, and data scientists to define and evolve our ML solutions and infrastructure, ensuring they are robust, scalable, and production-ready.

Key responsibilities:

• Act as the Technical Lead for multiple ML squads (3–4 engineers each), driving cross-team execution and elevating engineering standards across the department.
• Own the design, architecture, and scaling of ML services and pipelines
• Guide and review high-level system design, ensuring consistency with platform-wide architectural standards
• Collaborate closely with the Principal Architect to align on long-term technical direction
• Build and maintain production-grade ML systems, ensuring performance, observability, and reliability of those systems
• Contribute high-impact code to core services, with a strong focus on Python, ML modeling, and infrastructure

Requirements:

• 6+ years of professional experience in ML Engineering, with a demonstrable history of shipping and scaling high-stakes models within SaaS or product-centric environments
• A track record of moving beyond experimental notebooks to building "industrial-grade" ML systems that solve core business problems at scale
• Deep expertise in full MLOps cycle: CI/CD for ML, model versioning, deployment, reproducibility, and monitoring
• Expert-level Python programming with a focus on ML ecosystem (PyTorch, NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn) and software engineering best practices.
• Ability to architect low-latency, high-throughput ML systems that integrate seamlessly into a wider platform
• Hands-on experience designing, deploying, and scaling ML systems in a cloud environment (e.g. AWS, Azure, GCP)

Nice-to-haves:

• Proficiency in modern orchestration frameworks (e.g., Airflow, Dagster, Prefect) to manage complex, multi-stage simulation and training pipelines.
• Experience with distributed data processing frameworks like Spark, Flink
• Exposure to simulation, forecasting, or optimization systems
• Domain knowledge in CPG, pricing, or revenue management

What we offer:

• Dynamic Environment: Join a truly international and diverse team where your ideas matter.
• Flexible Work Model: Enjoy a remote setup with offices located in Cologne and Barcelona.
• Learning Budget: Take advantage of our employee development and education budget to enhance your skills.
