Senior Machine Learning Engineer

Candid’s Data Science and AI team builds and ships machine learning and AI models across many concurrent projects. The Senior ML Engineer exists to take operational ownership of Candid’s deployed ML and AI services to free up data science capacity. This is primarily an operational ownership role, with a secondary focus on incrementally improving deployment practices, observability, and inference performance as that ownership surfaces the need. The right person is motivated by reliability, ownership, and enabling others to do their best work; brings cost-awareness as a default in a budget-conscious nonprofit; and is energized by building standardized practices.
