We automate the detection and correction of metadata anomalies, including misattributed tracks, duplicate content, incorrect artist information, and incomplete album details, while providing internal teams with the tools and flexibility to continuously improve catalog integrity at scale.
Key job responsibilities
- Design, build, and operate scalable machine learning pipelines and online serving systems
- Work closely with applied scientists to optimize ML model performance and implement end-to-end solutions from experimentation through production
- Drive technology choices and continuous innovation for ML infrastructure across the sponsored products organization
- Collaborate with product managers, scientists, and engineers to deliver the right product for customers
- Build and maintain strong relationships across partner disciplines (Product, Science and Engg) to ensure customer-focused delivery
- Contribute to operational excellence - monitoring, troubleshooting, and supporting high-volume, low-latency systems
Basic qualifications
- 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience working with PyTorch or JAX software
- 2+ years of building large-scale machine-learning infrastructure for online recommendation, ads ranking, personalization or search experience
Preferred qualifications
- 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- Walk me through a computer vision problem you solved, from raw data to a deployed model.
- What NLP problem have you worked on, and how did you measure whether it actually worked?
- What are the limits of PyTorch that you've run into, and how did you work around them?
- What's a project where you used Jax hands-on?
- How would you decide a model or AI system is ready to ship?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: Computer Vision, Nlp, PyTorch, and Jax. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
- Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them — a tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
- Lead with what you built, trained or shipped — this role is judged on the AI system itself, not the tools around it.
