Software Engineer, Machine Learning Responsibilities
- Research, design, develop, and test operating systems-level software, compilers, and network distribution software for massive social data and prediction problems.
- Have industry experience working on a range of ranking, classification, recommendation, and optimization problems, e.g. payment fraud, click-through or conversion rate prediction, click-fraud detection, ads/feed/search ranking, text/sentiment classification, collaborative filtering/recommendation, or spam detection.
- Working on problems of moderate scope, develop highly scalable systems, algorithms and tools leveraging deep learning, data regression, and rules based models.
- Suggest, collect, analyze and synthesize requirements and bottleneck in technology, systems, and tools.
- Develop solutions that iterate orders of magnitude with a higher efficiency, efficiently leverage orders of magnitude and more data, and explore state-of-the-art deep learning techniques.
- Receiving general instruction from supervisor, code deliverables in tandem with the engineering team.
- Adapt standard machine learning methods to best exploit modern parallel environments (e.g. distributed clusters, multicore SMP, and GPU).
- Leverage build and compile tooling.
- Develop unit and regression tests.
- Submit candidate code changes to internal code review system.
- Regular review code submissions of other engineers.
- Communicate progress broadly via internal messaging systems.
