Key Responsibilities
- Own the ML platform strategy end-to-end, defining and driving the multi-year technical roadmap for training pipelines, serving architecture, experiment management, and monitoring systems.
- Build tooling that accelerates ML delivery, developing foundational infrastructure to standardise workflows and eliminate friction between experimentation and deployment.
- Solve hard distributed systems problems, enabling training across distributed data with residency and security requirements, while ensuring efficient model performance across varied GPU hardware.
- Design scalable, flexible serving architecture that handles spiky load in production and enables ML team flexibility across regions, customers, tasks, and verticals.
- Unblock the ML team at scale by identifying slowdowns, defining contracts and interfaces between training, evaluation, and serving, and building roadmap from research to delivery.
