Machine Learning Engineer #1065247
Position Description:
Employees in this job function are responsible for designing, building, deploying and scaling complex self-running ML solutions in areas like computer vision, perception, localization etc. They also automate and optimize the end-to-end ML model lifecycle using their expertise in experimental methodologies, statistics, and coding for tool building and analysis.
Key Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with business and technology stakeholders to understand current and future ML requirements
- Design and develop innovative ML models and software algorithms to solve complex business problems in both structured and unstructured environments
- Design, build, maintain and optimize scalable ML pipelines, architecture and infrastructure
- Use machine language and statistical modeling techniques such as decision trees, logistic regression, Bayesian analysis and others to develop and evaluate algorithms to improve product/system performance, quality, data management and accuracy
- Adapt machine learning to areas such as virtual reality, augmented reality, object detection, tracking, classification, terrain mapping, and others.
- Train and re-train ML models and systems as required
- Deploy ML models and algorithms into production and run simulations for algorithm development and test various scenarios
- Automate model deployment, training and re-training, leveraging principles of agile methodology, CI/CD/CT (Continuous Integration/ Continuous Deployment/ Continuous Training) and MLOps
- Enable model management for model versioning and traceability to ensure modularity and symmetry across environments and models for ML systems
Skills Required: - GCP, Big Query, Python, Java, Cloud Infrastructure, Artificial Intelligence & Expert Systems
Skills Preferred: Graph Layer
- Design, develop, test, and deploy the ISDP knowledge graph from the domain event store to Production using cloud-native data pipelines.
- Model and evolve the graph's entities and relationships as new data sources are onboarded. MCP serving layer
- Design, build, and operate the MCP server that exposes the ISDP graph layer and event store as tools to consumers — including GQL graph query, event-store query, and schema/DDL discovery.
- Define tool contracts, context, and guardrails so agents produce grounded, accurate, non-hallucinated responses over the graph.
- Ensure low-latency, secure, and cost-efficient serving for interactive and batch agent workloads. Reliability, monitoring & observability
- Own monitoring and observability of the graph layer and the MCP server — data freshness, pipeline health, query latency/cost, tool-call success rates, and answer quality.
- Instrument SLOs, dashboards, alerting, and tracing; drive incident response and continuous reliability improvements. Collaboration & data onboarding
- Partner with Data Engineers and Application Data Source Owners across Product Development, Manufacturing, Quality, and Supply Chain to ingest and validate their data into ISDP.
- Establish data contracts, schema validation, and quality checks; support source owners through onboarding, mapping to the ISDP logical model, and troubleshooting.
- Contribute to data governance, cataloging, and lineage for the graph and its sources.
Experience Required: - Engineer 2 Exp.: Practitioner: 1 coding language or framework. 7+ years in IT; 3+ years in development 2+ Years in AI and Graph Engineering
- Strong software engineering in Java, Python, with production-grade testing, CI/CD, and code quality practices.
- Hands-on experience deploying data/AI systems to Production on a GCP-native stack: Vertex AI, BigQuery, Dataflow / Apache Beam, Pub/Sub, Cloud Run / GKE, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Build / Artifact Registry.
- Experience with graph data modeling and querying — property graphs and GQL / graph query patterns (BigQuery property graphs, or equivalent such as Neo4j/Spanner Graph).
- Hands-on experience with Vertex AI (Agents, model serving, embeddings) and evaluation of agent answer quality.
- Experience building LLM/agent systems: tool-use, RAG/grounding, and integrating models via APIs (e.g., Vertex AI or enterprise LLM gateways). Familiarity with MCP or comparable agent tool protocols.
- Observability expertise: Cloud Monitoring/Logging, OpenTelemetry, SLOs, dashboards, and alerting for data pipelines and services.
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and secure-by-default engineering (IAM, least privilege, secrets management).
- Ability to work directly with data producers to model and validate real-world industrial/enterprise data.
Experience Preferred: - Familiarity with Dataplex / Data Catalog for governance, lineage, and business glossaries.
- Streaming/CDC and event-driven architectures; append-only/event-sourced data modeling.
- Design and build user-facing applications and dashboards that surface Knowledge Graph data to end users.
- Domain exposure to PLM / product development, manufacturing execution, quality, or supply-chain systems and their data.
- Data quality frameworks, schema evolution, and blue-green/zero-downtime data deployments.
