Senior Python / ML Engineer
Built and shipped a RAG pipeline over ~2M documents; reasoned clearly about chunking, hybrid retrieval and evaluation. Wrote clean, tested FastAPI code under time pressure and handled the async and GIL tradeoffs correctly.
Limited Kubernetes exposure (used managed platforms). Would need about two weeks to ramp on a self-managed cluster.
Hire for a senior backend / ML role. Pair with an infra-strong teammate if the role is infra-heavy.
