Required qualifications

- 8+ years in ML engineering, data engineering, or software engineering, with substantial recent time at a staff/lead level of technical scope.

- Strong SQL and Snowflake experience, including performance and cost tuning on large tables.
- CI/CD experience with Azure DevOps (or equivalent) for ML workloads.

- Working knowledge of explainability methods (e.g. SHAP, permutation importance, forecast decomposition) and the judgment to know their limits.
- Time series forecasting experience: hierarchical forecasts, intermittent demand, proper backtesting and evaluation design.
- Transparent written and verbal communication with non-technical stakeholders.
