- We are seeking a mid-level Software Engineer to join our Pricing & ML team, providing a unique opportunity to collaborate with applied researchers and modelers.
- The role involves building and productionizing machine learning models that power our pricing engine.
- The ideal candidate will deepen their exposure to ML workflows, focusing on delivering value and reliability rather than optimizing hyperparameters.

- The engineer will drive best practices within the ML codebase to ensure maintainable, testable, and scalable systems.
Requirements:
- Candidates should have 2–4 years of experience in software engineering, ideally with exposure to machine learning workflows.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills are essential for working closely with data scientists and researchers.
- Applicants must be comfortable navigating data pipelines, model training pipelines, and production environments.
- Proficiency in writing maintainable, modular, and testable Python code is required.
- Candidates should be motivated by impact and learning, rather than just building infrastructure for others.
Benefits:
- The base pay range for this position is $143,200-$179,000 annually, plus RSUs and bonuses, with variations based on work location and qualifications.
- We offer a comprehensive benefits package that includes unlimited PTO, medical/dental/vision insurance, life insurance, and a 401(k) plan for eligible employees.
