We are a fast-growing Bay Area-based startup backed by leading investors like Menlo Ventures, Accel and Y-Combinator.

The team has deep technical talent today and we believe there is an opportunity to build an iconic vertical software business that will fundamentally impact how the multi-trillion-dollar debt industry is managed. Debt has such a massive impact on consumers and prior to Prodigal, the industry was saddled with painful, low value manual workflows, and poor customer experience- our mission is to humanize the debt repayment process through automation and data.

We are looking for a passionate and seasoned Senior Machine Learning (ML) Engineer to spearhead the design, development, and deployment of cutting-edge Machine Learning and Generative AI solutions towards Prodigal’s vision of building the Intelligence Layer for Consumer Finance.

  3. Research & Innovation: Stay updated on ML research and the ever-changing Gen AI landscape, identifying opportunities for innovation.
  4. Collaboration & Leadership: Effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality solutions on time. Guide team members in contributing to ML design discussions for new projects.

Requirements:

  1. Extensive experience (4-5 years) in software development, with a focus on machine learning and data science in a tech company.
  2. Proven track record of delivering high-quality ML products in a fast-paced, agile environment.
  3. Deep understanding of machine learning algorithms with hands-on experience in developing and deploying machine learning models at scale.
  4. Strong coding skills in Python. Familiarity with machine learning libraries such as PyTorch and sci-kit-learn. Experience with data manipulation and analysis tools like Pandas and Spark.
  5. Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams and mentor junior engineers.
  6. Ability and willingness to work in person in our Thane office.

Preferred Qualifications:

  1. Experience training and using Large Language Models (BERT, LLAMA, GPT etc) with a passion for applying Generative AI solutions in production environments.
  2. Experience with cloud services (AWS) and building scalable, distributed systems.
