• Build up the developer experience for ML engineers (environment setup, dependency management, automation, CI/CD). Focused on reusability, standardization and scalable development workflows.

• Apply strong software engineering practices within ML codebases (modularity, testing, version control, code reviews).

• Contribute to modeling tasks when needed, including data preparation, feature engineering, experiment execution, and evaluation.

• Collaborate closely with data engineers and backend engineers to ensure clean data flows and robust integrations.

YOUR PROFILE

• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Engineering, or related technical disciplines.

• Experience with cloud-based environments and production infrastructure.

• Experience working with large-scale datasets and distributed processing frameworks (e.g. Spark or similar).

• Practical experience of the ML lifecycle and ability to collaborate effectively on modeling tasks.

• Experience contributing to collaborative codebases using Git and following structured development practices (pull requests, reviews, branching workflows).

BONUS EXPERIENCE

• Experience contributing to internal platforms or shared developer tooling.

• Exposure to containerization and orchestration tools.

• Prior experience in gaming, consumer products, or large-scale data environments.

BENEFITS

• Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.

• Autonomy to explore and implement new technologies, tools, and partners.

• Work in a dynamic environment with high exposure to a wide variety of genres, tools, and diversified products.

• Flexible working hours and a supportive, collaborative work environment.
