About the role

The role. We’re hiring a Machine Learning Engineer to build production systems that make quoting, material selection, planning, and factory decisions faster and more accurate. You will work with messy operational data, test ideas against real outcomes, and put the useful ones into production. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Strong in applied machine learning, statistics, and software engineering
  • Comfortable working in Python and SQL
  • Rigorous about evaluation and skeptical of impressive-looking demos without evidence
  • Able to turn an operational problem into a measurable learning problem
  • Comfortable deploying and maintaining models, not just training them
  • Curious about factories, materials, and supply chains
