THE ROLE
We are looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to join a newly formed team whose mission is to unlock the potential of the ML community at Farfetch.The ML ecosystem, both at Farfetch and in the wider community, is currently undergoing a rapid growth period. Whether that is feature stores that promote feature sharing and consistent online serving, vector databases that open up new search opportunities, to data processing engines that can seamlessly work on vast datasets. Simultaneously, the ecosystem relies on tools and techniques originally intended for software engineering that must be adapted to the needs of the ML community. Model development and deployment have different requirements of data access, version control, CI/CD, and container orchestration.Making these tools available for teams is of course only the first step. The old adage of it's not the tool, but how you use it is as relevant as ever. Are we making efficient use of resources? Do we have the right level of visibility during training or inference? Are teams able to iterate solutions at the pace they require? How do the expectations of data science teams align with those of the platform maintainers? Some of these questions have straightforward practical solutions, while others can have profound implications on how we approach ML.In this role, you will be part of a team that sits between platform and data science teams that ensures the needs of the ML community are met, whether that is by evaluating tools and their value, promoting best practices for model development, or even providing hands-on support.You will be working on a team of Machine Learning Engineers and Data Scientists driving innovation and improvements to the ML ecosystem. You will work closely with the platform, data science, architecture, networking, security, and governance teams to make sure that the needs of the ML community are balanced with the requirements of all stakeholders.
