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, working in partnership with Product and Design functions. Our 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 and novel applications of transformer neural networks. We test and measure the real customer impact of each model we deploy.
What will I be doing?
1. Identify areas where ML can create value for our customers
2. Contribute to finding the right ML framing of a product problem
3. Collaborate with teammates and Product and Design stakeholders
4. Implement algorithms that work offline into a production setting
5. Deeply understand and modify algorithms as needed
6. Solve scalability and optimization problems
7. Build new data infrastructure to enable exploration
8. Establish processes for large-scale data analyses, model development, validation, and implementation
9. Work with teammates to measure and iterate on algorithm performance
10. Partner with the rest of the team and others to build excellent ML products
What skills might I need?
These are meant to be indicative, not hard requirements:
1. Excellent pragmatic engineering skills
2. Familiarity with tools used to write, test, deploy, debug, and monitor software
3. Comfort owning features from inception to outcome
4. 5+ years experience in a production environment, contributing to the design and architecture of distributed systems
5. Strong communication skills, both within engineering teams and across disciplines
6. Excellent programming skills
7. Comfort with ambiguity
8. BSc in Computer Science, or similar knowledge
9. Deep knowledge of AWS services
10. Track record of shipping ML products
11. Experience in a research environment
12. Algorithmic optimization experience
13. Advanced education in CS, ML, Math, Stats, or similar
14. Practical statistics knowledge (experiment design, dealing with confounding, etc.)
15. Experience in applicable ML areas (e.g., NLP, Deep learning, Bayesian methods, Reinforcement learning, clustering)
