Members can watch or play as much as they want, anytime, anywhere, on any internet-connected screen. Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence powers all of our consumer experience, including content discovery and personalization, identifying and attracting new members to our product, optimizing our payment processing, and much more. More recently, fast-paced innovation in large language models (LLMs) has greatly helped advance state-of-the-art technology in many areas of personalization, including search and recommendation experiences. The Opportunity The Consumer ML Serving team provides the computational platform on which we build nearly all our consumer-facing ML/AI applications. If you’ve seen it, we probably served it! We provide all the building blocks to serve ML at scale, including a real-time model serving platform, an event-driven model and feature compute framework, a distributed compute orchestration engine, and more. Additionally, as we expand to enable LLM innovation in numerous areas of personalization, we’re building model serving infrastructure for LLMs and other large foundation models. We are looking for a strong senior engineer to own and develop our long-term vision.

    We would especially love to work with you if have experience with:

  • Building and operating high-traffic, real-time distributed systems and ML serving infrastructure for LLMs and other large foundation models.

  • Supporting large-scale ML models with a direct impact on what customers see.

  • Translating the requirements of research scientists into generic platform offerings.

  • Delivering systems requiring high availability, throughput, and performance.

  • Navigating highly ambiguous environments.

  • Taking on and executing zero-to-one projects.

  • Leading projects with 3-4 other engineers.

  • Building applications in an object-oriented programming language. (We work primarily with Java, and while prior Java experience is not required to interview, you will be expected to become proficient on the job.)

  • DevOps for large applications, including performance tuning, optimization, deployment management, and capacity planning.

  • Public cloud like AWS, Azure, or GCP.

    …and if:

  • You are a proactive, effective communicator and have a strong bias towards action.

  • You have a BS/MS in Computer Science, Applied Math, Engineering, or a related field.
