About the role

  • Senior Machine Learning Engineer building and integrating advanced ML capabilities for engineering decisions at Secondmind. Collaborating with customers and research teams to enhance product functionality.

Responsibilities

  • Developing and integrating ML capabilities : Building the ML capabilities that power the product.
  • Customer guidance : Helping customers frame their engineering problems in terms our product can address, and guiding them through new ways of working.
  • Diagnosing complex issues : When a customer's data goes into the product and something isn't right, you are the person who can unpick whether it's a data quality issue, unexpected model behaviour, a configuration problem, or a genuine bug.
  • Shaping product direction : You sit at the intersection of what our researchers envision, what our customers actually need, and what is realistic to build and maintain in production.
  • Codebase stewardship : Contributing to and maintaining a production codebase that interfaces with real test benches and simulation toolchains.

  • Familiarity with automotive, manufacturing, or other engineering sectors.
