For the given job description <<X is Alphabets moonshot factory. We are a diverse group of inventors and entrepreneurs who build and launch technologies that aim to improve the lives of millions, even billions, of people. Our goal: 10x impact on the worlds most intractable problems, not just 10% improvement. We approach projects that have the aspiration and riskiness of research with the speed and ambition of a startup.
About The Team
Tidal is a team at X working on a moonshot to protect the ocean and preserve its ability to support life and help feed humanity, sustainably. Our initial area of focus is on developing hardware and software technologies that bring greater visibility and understanding of whats happening under the water. Learn more about Project Tidal .
About The Role
As an Applied Machine Learning Software Engineer at Tidal, you will be working alongside other software engineers, perception experts, and research scientists to develop and deploy state-of-the-art methods to create a platform leveraging perception and machine learning to solve humanitys biggest problems  from food production to renewable energy to climate change  by sustainably utilizing the ocean.
Your role will be to enable developers to run ML workflows smoothly and efficiently. You will develop sustainable, scalable solutions to ensure the reliability and performance of these ML workflows, improve engineer productivity and ultimately help advance our Perception and ML Platform. If you love getting tech to work on challenging, real world problems, please apply!
How You Will Make 10X Impact
Work with our customers to understand the problem space, run experiments, collect data, and design novel and breakthrough ML solutions Profile ML performance at both model level and system level, identify performance bottlenecks and optimization opportunitiesImprove and streamline large-scale machine learning workflows for training and inference by analyzing, understanding, and fixing bottlenecksEnable better component-wise testing of training workflowsAutomate data uploadprocessingtrainingevaluatingdeployingoptimizing pipelines and develop monitoring and notification tooling to track statistics of the pipelines, improving debuggability and introspection into these complex workflowsRespond to and resolve emergent problems in production; test ML training pipelines; write software and build automation to prevent problem recurrenceKeep track of major changes and trends in infrastructure and enable adoption of new frameworks and systems without significant impact on development workEngage in capacity planning, quota management, and demand forecasting for ML workflowsCollaborate with stakeholder teams to implement and evolve large-scale Machine Learning infrastructure
