Our mission is to accelerate the Ads ML lifecycle – from experimentation and training to deployment, evaluation, and autonomous operations – through scalable platform services, intelligent automation, and developer-centric tooling. Our team owns critical platform capabilities including offline ML experimentation systems, production training orchestration frameworks, ML lifecycle automation and, agentic ML frameworks that enable faster model iterations. We are looking for an experienced engineer with deep expertise in large-scale distributed systems, ML platforms, and emerging agentic architectures to help define and build the foundational tooling for the next generation of our machine learning devX tooling. What You’ll Do Design and build large-scale offline ML experimentation platforms that enable reproducible research, model development, evaluation, and promotion workflows. Develop production-grade training orchestration frameworks supporting distributed training, hyperparameter optimization, model evaluation, and automated retraining. Build infrastructure for experiment tracking, metadata management, lineage, artifact versioning, model registries, and reproducibility. Partner with ML engineers and researchers to improve experimentation velocity and operational efficiency. Build automated workflows for model promotion, rollback, compliance validation, and continuous evaluation. Design and build an agentic AI execution platform supporting autonomous and human-in-the-loop workflows, including multi-agent orchestration, memory/context systems, and scalable workflow infrastructure. What You Bring 5+ years in infrastructure/platform engineering or large-scale distributed systems. 2+ years of hands-on experience building and operating production ML infrastructure, developer SDKs, platform APIs, or self-service AI tooling. Experience building workflow orchestration systems, developer platforms, or large-scale automation frameworks. Experience with distributed data processing systems such as Spark, Flink, Ray, or equivalent technologies. Experience with modern orchestration and workflow technologies such as Kubeflow, Argo, Airflow, or similar frameworks. Experience building offline ML experimentation platforms, model registries, experiment tracking systems, or training orchestration frameworks. Experience building and operating agentic AI systems, including multi-agent orchestration, autonomous workflows, and agent communication/runtime frameworks (e.g., MCP, A2A, and orchestration systems) is a strong plus Experience running end-to-end model development and iteration cycles at scale is a plus Benefits: Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits and Income Replacement Programs 401k with Employer Match Global Benefit programs that fit your lifestyle, from workspace to professional development to caregiving support Family Planning Support Gender-Affirming Care Mental Health & Coaching Benefits Flexible Vacation & Paid Volunteer Time Off Generous Paid Parental Leave Pay Transparency: This job posting may span more than one career level.
