Senior Machine Learning Engineer

Capital One Capital One · Banking · McLean, VA +3

Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Capital One focused on productionizing ML applications and systems at scale. Responsibilities include designing, building, and delivering ML models, informing ML infrastructure decisions, writing and testing code, automating tests and deployment, retraining/maintaining/monitoring models in production, leveraging cloud architectures, constructing data pipelines, and ensuring code quality and model governance. Requires experience with ML frameworks, productionizing models, and cloud-based ML systems.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design, build, and/or deliver ML models and components that solve real-world business problems, while working in collaboration with the Product and Data Science teams.
  2. Inform your ML infrastructure decisions using your understanding of ML modeling techniques and issues, including choice of model, data, and feature selection, model training, hyperparameter tuning, dimensionality, bias/variance, and validation).
  3. Solve complex problems by writing and testing application code, developing and validating ML models, and automating tests and deployment.
  4. Collaborate as part of a cross-functional Agile team to create and enhance software that enables state-of-the-art big data and ML applications.
  5. Retrain, maintain, and monitor models in production.
