About the role
Senior ML Engineer role focusing on cloud-side production systems for Safety AI's ML applications, building end-to-end ML backend, data pipelines, APIs, and monitoring to run real-time safety features at fleet scale.
Responsibilities
- Design Production ML APIs: Architect and maintain reliable, low-latency APIs to integrate Safety AI model outputs directly into cloud applications.
- Build Data Flywheels: Construct scalable pipelines to power continuous model iteration, backtesting, shadow and online evaluation, enabling fast and safe deployments.
- Optimize & Serve Artifacts: Productionize model artifacts handed off by applied scientists, optimizing serving logic and fine-tuning models for platform-specific workloads.
- Petabyte-Scale Operations: Process high-volume camera and sensor telematics data to support model execution, backtesting, and automated dataset curation.
- Monitor & Maintain Rollout Health: Build systems to track model drift, precision/recall, and latency regressions in production, ensuring predictable failure modes and closed-loop data feedback.
- Cross-Functional System Integration: Partner with firmware and platform teams to optimize edge-to-cloud model execution, balancing latency, throughput, and infrastructure cost.
- Product Collaboration: Work with product managers to translate safety requirements into scalable technical architectures.
- Champion Samsara’s cultural principles in scale-up context.
Qualifications
- 6+ years of experience as a Machine Learning Engineer or similar role, with a track record of shipping models in production.
