What's the opportunity?
We’re looking for Senior Product Engineers to join the AI Infrastructure team to help Fin build AI-powered products. Product Engineers in AI infrastructure work closely with other ML engineers and our ML Scientists teams. You will deeply understand our product, our ML tech stack, how we develop product, and how we can accelerate that process further.
The wider AI group is responsible for defining new ML features, researching appropriate algorithms and technologies, and rapidly getting first prototypes in our customers’ hands.
AI infrastructure is building a platform to move extremely quickly, adapting to new AI advancements in a matter of days, but providing the safety shield to other engineers so our customers always get a good service. We often provide services at the core of AI systems, and write framework-level code that other engineers and scientists in the AI group use daily.
We are very passionate about applying machine learning technology, and have productized everything from classic supervised models, to cutting-edge unsupervised clustering algorithms, to novel applications of transformer neural networks. We test and measure the real customer impact of each model and change we deploy.
If you are an experienced backend engineer who takes an analytical approach to development and has some hands-on experience with ML systems and platforms, we'd love to hear from you!
