Senior ML Engineer

inDrive is a global tech company on a mission to challenge injustice. We started in 2012 in the coldest city on Earth, when a group of friends created a way for people to agree on fair ride prices. That idea grew into one of the world’s top ride-hailing apps, now with 360M installs across 48 countries.

We are a team of Machine Learning Engineers focused on turning ideas and prototypes into reliable, production-ready systems. We own the end-to-end lifecycle of ML solutions — from integration with existing services to deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement — ensuring our models deliver stable, measurable value in real-world conditions.

Tasks and duties are to:

• Take ownership of the end-to-end machine learning delivery cycle, including building, testing, deploying, and supporting solution components
• Lead the design of complex ML systems from scratch, considering architectural aspects, user needs, and non-functional requirements
• Transform business goals into data science problems and define relevant proxy metrics and non-functional requirements
• Discover and verify business scenarios that can be solved with technical tools and solutions, contributing significantly to the experiment design process
• Manage issues from root cause to resolution, providing feedback to improve engineering design and prevent future issues
• Create and maintain DS-powered services in a production environment, collaborating with other teams and contributing to the backend systems and infrastructure
• Drive automation and track performance and efficiency metrics
• Mentor and onboard junior team members, supporting a culture of continuous learning and best practices
• Communicate complex technical messages clearly and concisely to diverse audiences
• Proactively identify and report potential security, risk, and control issues
• Drive continuous improvement and innovation that leads to business impact

• Comprehensive experience autonomously implementing and leading ML projects, with a proven track record of successes and lessons learned
• Expert-level proficiency in classic machine learning, deep learning, and advanced mathematics
• Strong practical knowledge of MLOps instruments for managing the ML model lifecycle
• Solid software system design skills to contribute to overall architecture, and the ability to design ML systems from scratch
• In-depth experience with event systems and deployment environments, and the ability to maintain services in production
• Proficiency in Python and its frameworks for streaming, batch, and async data processing
• Common knowledge of technologies for backend integration (e.g., Golang)
• A strong grasp of concepts like Concept Drift and its impact on model performance in production
• A strong understanding of data preparation and calculations at all stages of the ML pipeline
