Senior Machine Learning Engineer
Job description
Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Mex Digital.
About the role
You will architect and implement robust machine learning systems that power real-time decisioning for global financial services. This role is a deep technical ownership position where you design, build, and scale production AI infrastructure that directly impacts trading and client outcomes. You will own the full lifecycle of ML products, from initial data hypothesis through deployment, optimization, and continuous monitoring in high-stakes environments. You will collaborate closely with product and data teams to turn ambiguous business goals into reliable, scalable machine learning workflows. The role requires a product-first mindset where research insights are rapidly translated into production-grade services. You will mentor other engineers and help define best practices for model reliability, testing, and maintainability. Your work will involve close collaboration with product managers and engineers to solve complex problems using mobile attribution and engagement data. You will contribute to strategic decisions regarding data architecture, AI infrastructure, and cloud platform direction.
