About the job
Machine Learning Engineer – San Francisco, CA
We're looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to join a high-growth startup using AI to apply algorithmic trading precision to a $600B+ digital advertising market, building real-time systems that autonomously optimize ad spend.
What you'll work on:
- Develop and refine customer value prediction models (LTV)
- Support the design of budget allocation and bidding optimization systems
- Integrate with Meta, Google, and TikTok APIs to automate spend in real time
- Contribute across the full ML lifecycle - experimentation, validation, deployment, and monitoring
- Help build simulation and backtesting frameworks to evaluate strategies before rollout
- Monitor performance and detect model drift in fast-changing market conditions
What they're looking for:
- 2+ years experience building and deploying ML models in production
- Strong grounding in core ML techniques (regression, classification, tree-based models, etc.)
- Familiarity with optimization and experimentation frameworks
- Ability to translate business problems into scalable ML solutions
- Experience writing robust, production-ready code (handling scale, edge cases, failures)
- Exposure to APIs and data pipelines in real-world environments
What's in it for me:
- $150K–$200K base + meaningful equity
- Work on systems directly managing significant ad spend
- Daily meals, full benefits, unlimited PTO
- Fast-growing, well-funded company at the intersection of AI and markets
Apply now for immediate consideration!
