The Role

As a Staff Machine Learning Engineer in our Applied ML & Research team, you'll drive the development of cutting-edge machine learning solutions that power critical features across our online gaming platforms. Your work will directly impact platform security, user experience, and large-scale data-driven decision-making for hundreds of thousands of users daily.

This role blends hands-on technical work with strategic thinking. You’ll lead by example, contribute high-quality code, and help shape the ML roadmap in the organization through cross-functional collaboration.

What you’ll you be doing:
  • Identify high-impact ML opportunities and influence stakeholders to prioritize and support these initiatives.
  • Design and develop scalable machine learning models — including classifiers, regressors, and rule-based systems — to solve real-world problems.
  • Own the full ML lifecycle: from data exploration and feature engineering to model training, evaluation, and deployment.
  • Translate complex technical concepts into clear insights for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Set and guide technical direction across ML projects, ensuring technical best practices as well as alignment with business goals.
  • Mentor junior engineers and foster a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous improvement.
We're looking for someone with:
  • Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Machine Learning, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 7+ years of industry experience building and deploying ML models at scale.
  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional technical initiatives and influence engineering strategy.
  • Proficiency in Python (with libraries like PyTorch, XGBoost, Scikit-learn) and SQL.
  • Strong experience with machine learning pipelines and orchestration tools such as Airflow, SageMaker Pipelines, or similar.
  • Deep understanding of machine learning fundamentals, including experience with Large Language Models (LLMs) and other emerging ML technologies.
  • A track record of shipping production-level ML products and maintaining high code quality.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to scope and disambiguate complex ML projects into clear, achievable milestones.
Bonus points for:
  • Familiarity with ML tooling such as MLflow, ZenML, or Metaflow.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS services (e.g., EC2, EKS, CloudFormation, Cognito).
  • Exposure to streaming data platforms like Kafka.
  • Contributions to open-source ML projects or publications in ML conferences.
