Fetch helps people live rewarded, with a vision to create the rewards destination for everyone.
The Role
Own the complete machine learning model lifecycle, from experimentation and validation through deployment, monitoring, retraining, rollback, and retirement. Build reusable training, evaluation, deployment, orchestration, and CI/CD infrastructure. Establish model promotion standards, versioning, lineage, monitoring, alerting, and incident-response processes. Partner with data scientists to preserve scientific validity, improve reliability and efficiency, support delayed-label use cases, mentor teammates, and define MLOps priorities.
