Meet Fetch Engineering:

At Fetch, our engineering philosophy emphasizes innovation, adaptability, and informed decision-making. Our engineers thrive in complex environments, making decisions based on critical thinking and data, even in uncertain situations. We value proactive problem-solving and focus on driving impactful results while maintaining high technical standards. You will work alongside talented engineers who are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology and encouraging each other to excel. We understand that Fetch may not be the right fit for everyone, but if you're passionate about solving challenging problems and navigating intricate systems, Fetch could be a great place for you.

About the Role: 

The ML Engineering team embodies these values and works to enable intelligent systems for end users, internal stakeholders, and external partners. We are looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to contribute to this vision and reap the rewards of joining an exciting company in the high growth phase. Among other things, Fetch uses ML/AI to power receipt understanding (digital and physical), fraud detection, and we’re rapidly evolving in the space of ads ranking, recommendation, search, and discovery. Machine learning is core to our product and we’re working to make it an even bigger part of the company. 

Your focus will be on the intersection of developing ML models and the infrastructure needed to operationalize them at scale. The ML Team at Fetch is responsible for the full life-cycle of machine learning. This includes data labeling/collection/management, model development, and deploying to large scale production settings. We work closely with backend, devops and data engineers on focused teams. You’ll be expected to create value in a fast moving environment and that might mean at any given moment deep diving into one of these stages of the pipeline

Do you get excited about both training and deploying ML models? Do you like translating business problems into ML applications? Have you ever been responsible for quickly iterating on a model’s accuracy or latency? If you answered yes to these questions we’d love to hear from you.

• Excellent programming skills (we use a lot of Python in this problem space but proficiency in other languages are equally welcome)
• Experience training ML models using a Python framework like Pytorch, TensorFlow, etc.
• Experience deploying a model in a production environment with significant traffic. We process 100s of events per second in our production pipelines
• Experience deploying applications in public cloud environments like AWS etc.
• Strong understanding of the math that makes ML models work

Bonus Points For:

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to problem solve independently and demonstrate initiative
• Experience with model servers like TFServing/TorchServe/Triton
• Experience with ONNX, TensorRT, CUDA, OpenAI Triton
• Experience with search, ranking or ads
• Statistics experience, including experiment design, A/B testing, and causal inference
• Experience building fraud detection models
• Experience with NLP tasks like fine-tuning LLMs, RLHF, prompting, and semantic search
