Requirements:
Proven experience leading backend or ML-platform engineering teams (2+ years in a leadership role), including mentoring engineers and driving architectural decisions.
Excellent coding skills in Python/TypeScript, with hands-on experience building reliable backend services and tooling. Familiarity with modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face) is a strong advantage.
Experience designing, deploying, and maintaining production systems that integrate ML components, including APIs, microservices, model serving layers, feature pipelines, monitoring, and CI/CD/MLOps workflows.
Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts, performance optimization, observability, and operating services at scale.
Strong communication skills, with the ability to bridge technical, product, and business perspectives.
Prior experience in cybersecurity, fraud prevention, or identity management is a plus, especially with secure system architectures or ML-augmented decisioning systems.
