About the Role:
As a Staff Software Engineer on the ML Infrastructure team, you will collaborate
closely with the Machine Learning and Product teams to build world-class machine
learning inference platforms. These platforms power essential services like
personalized recommendations, search, and content understanding across Tubi.
A core responsibility of this team is developing and maintaining low-latency ML
model serving systems that support Deep Learning, LLM, and Search models. This
involves building self-service infrastructure and critical components such as
the inference engine, feature store, vector store, and experimentation engine.
You will improve the way we deploy and operate our services and even contribute
to open-source projects. This role grants the architectural freedom to explore
new frameworks, lead critical cross-functional projects, and transform the
capabilities of our ML and Product teams.
Responsibilities:
* Design and build scalable, high throughput, and low latency distributed
systems using Scala
* Build reusable components and services that serve various ML applications
like Personalization, Search, Ads and Exploration
* Partner closely with ML engineers to understand their challenges and
limitations and develop scalable solutions to address them. Proactively
recommend solutions to keep our ML Inference stack state of the art.
* Take a data driven approach to identifying & optimizing latency, cost, and
efficiency of our infra. Lead large scale cross functional refactorings if
necessary
* Mentor other engineers on the team on system design, effective incident
management, interviewing, leveraging LLMs for work, etc.
* Collaborate with ML, Product, and cross functional engineering teams to
define the long term vision and architecture for ML Infrastructure at Tubi.
Your Background:
* Experience designing and building scalable, distributed systems in any modern
backend language (e.g., Scala, Java, Python, Go, C++); experience with Scala
or JVM based language is a plus.
* Strong experience with AWS or an equivalent cloud platform
* Experience building online microservices at scale with low latency serving
* Experience with both SQL (e.g. Postgres) and NoSQL databases (e.g.
Cassandra), message brokers (e.g. Kafka), and caches (e.g. Redis)
* Experience with containerization technologies, such as Docker or Kubernetes
* Led the response and resolution efforts for multiple major, large-scale
incidents
Bonus:
* Familiarity with the machine learning infrastructure like inference engines
(e.g. torschserve, triton, vLLM), vector stores (e.g. LanceDB, FAISS),
feature stores (e.g. Feast), ElastiCache, model training orchestration, etc.
* Understanding of ML model training pipelines and model internals. Experience
with Recommender Systems, Search, Autocomplete and Ads ML is a plus
* Previous experience with Akka, Erlang, Elixir or Go
* Proficient in data-driven analysis of complex A/B testing results
