Manager, Machine Learning
Palo Alto, CA
Full Time Mid-level / Intermediate USD 223K - 243K
Instrumental
Imagine writing software with no debugger, no logging, and only getting to compile it three times before you need to ship millions of copies. That's what building electronics products is like for hardware, quality, and process engineers. As a result of this data- and insight-poor environment, companies waste significant time, money, and material. Instrumental's manufacturing AI and data platform solves this problem for the most admired hardware companies in the world.
Instrumental’s mission is to drive manufacturing efficiencies through technology that empowers teams to build products better, faster, and with less waste. Brands like Meta, Bose, Cisco, and SolarEdge use our technology to optimize their manufacturing processes and deliver superior products in less time. We start by collecting data that no one else can; then we use machine learning and visualizations to automatically identify defects and help companies understand their assembly processes. As a result, product and process problems are caught and solved earlier, before they create delays and cost millions.
What the role is aboutWe’re seeking a customer-centric, hands-on machine learning leader to help accelerate our technology development and productization efforts. The role will lead a team of talented ML engineers and partner closely with the R&D leadership to build and execute against our product roadmap. You’ll operate in a highly cross-functional environment, working closely with our product, edge computing, and web application teams to deliver iterative and increasing value for our customers. The key to success will be balancing research and productization while removing roadblocks that slow the team down.
The following is a representative annual base salary range for this position within the Bay Area: $223,000 - $243,000. Job level and salary opportunities are evaluated through our interview process – we review the experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities of each applicant.
Instrumental is proud to offer a highly-rated variety of benefits, including health, vision, dental, commuter plans, and parental leave.
