What’s the opportunity?Intercom’s Machine Learning team is responsible for defining new ML features, researching appropriate algorithms and technologies, and rapidly getting first prototypes in our customers’ hands.We are an extremely product-focused team. We work in partnership with Product and Design functions of teams we support. Our team’s dedicated ML product engineers enable us to move to production fast, often shipping to beta in weeks after a successful offline test.We are very passionate about applying machine learning technology, and have productized everything from classic supervised models to cutting-edge unsupervised clustering algorithms to novel applications of transformer neural networks. We test and measure the real customer impact of each model we deploy.What will I be doing?Identify areas where ML can create value for our customersIdentify the right ML framing of product problemsWork with teammates and Product and Design stakeholdersConduct exploratory data analysis and researchDeeply understand the problem areaResearch and identify the right algorithms and toolsBe pragmatic, but innovate right to the cutting-edge when neededPerform offline evaluation to gather evidence an algorithm will workWork with engineers to bring prototypes to productionPlan, measure & socialize learnings to inform iterationPartner deeply with the rest of the team, and others, to build excellent ML productsWhat skills might I need?Broad applied machine learning knowledge3-5 years applied ML experiencePractical stats knowledge (experiment design, dealing with confounding etc)Intermediate programming skillsStrong communication skills, both within engineering teams and across disciplinesComfort with ambiguityTypically have advanced education in ML or related field (e.g. MSc)Scientific thinking skillsBonus skills & attributesTrack record shipping ML productsPhD or other experience in a research environmentDeep experience in an applicable ML area (e.g. NLP, Deep learning, Bayesian methods, Reinforcement learning, clustering)Strong stats or math backgroundVisualization, data skills, SQL, matplotlib, etc.BenefitsWe are a well-treated bunch, with awesome benefits!
