The posting

Senior Data & Machine Learning Engineer – NYC (Hybrid) PTQ

$200k - $300k

We're looking for a Senior Data & Machine Learning Engineer who can independently own the matching stack end-to-end. You'll work directly with the engineering team to build the models, the serving path, and the platform underneath them.

This is a high-autonomy position. You won't be handed a roadmap of analyses to run. You'll look at the data, identify what matters, form your own hypotheses, and design experiments to test them. The best candidate thinks like a scientist and builds like an engineer.

Responsibilities

  • Retrieval, ranking, and re-ranking for ad-to-recipient matching.
  • The embedding and vector-search infrastructure powering real-time ad selection inside publisher newsletters.
  • Multi-objective optimization in a single ranking stack: CTR lift, advertiser ROAS, publisher revenue, and subscriber relevance.
  • The feature store and the serving path: offline training, online inference, and the parity between them. Pipeline health is your problem, not someone else's.
  • LLMs and foundation models applied to subscriber tagging, content understanding, and user modeling.
  • Lead 0-to-1 initiatives from prototype to production, including online learning and feedback-loop systems, reliable ETL/ELT pipelines, and the dbt/warehouse transformation layer
  • Dashboards and automated scorecards giving the team and leadership real-time visibility into performance, CTR lift, tag coverage, and other key metrics.
  • Work closely with the CTO, CEO, and engineering team to set priorities and the order of work for scaling the recommendation system
  • Grow into a leadership role, with a path to building and running an ML team

Work Experience and Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience with recommendation,​ ranking,​ or ads systems
  • 5 -​ 16 years of experience in production ML or data engineering
  • Has owned multiple layers of a recommendation system end-to-end (retrieval,​ ranking,​ serving,​ evaluation),​ not one component on a large team
  • Recsys models for ads:​ ads ranking,​ CTR or conversion prediction,​ or ad matching
  • Embeddings and real-​time vector-​search infrastructure (FAISS,​ Milvus,​ Pinecone,​ pgvector or similar)
  • Founder background or early-​stage startup experience
  • Based in the NYC area,​ OR in a US time zone close to Eastern,​ and can travel to NYC quarterly
  • Built and maintained their own data pipelines and transformation layer in SQL and dbt (or similar)
  • Previous experience building an ML team
  • Education
  • Master's or Ph.​D.​ in Computer Science / Machine Learning preferred (helpful but not required)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
