Senior ML Engineer

Engineering | Marseille

Role Overview

We are seeking a talented and detail-oriented ML Engineer to join our team at Syroco. In this role, you will focus on designing, building, and optimizing machine learning pipelines to support the seamless training, evaluation, and integration of hybrid AI and physics-based models. Your expertise will ensure our models are scalable, efficient, and robust, capable of handling complex computational workflows with reliability.

At Syroco, our models combine machine learning algorithms with physics-informed approaches to deliver accurate and actionable insights. You’ll be responsible for scaling training workflows, optimising computational resources, and maintaining consistent model performance across various environments.

You will work closely with Data Scientists to deeply understand model architectures and with MLOps Engineers to ensure smooth deployment and monitoring of these systems. Additionally, you’ll contribute to designing and maintaining AWS SageMaker infrastructure for experimentation and large-scale training.

This role emphasizes technical expertise, a strong problem-solving mindset, and a dedication to building reliable, high-performance systems capable of supporting computationally intensive hybrid models. If you're excited about shaping the backbone of AI and physics-driven insights in a cutting-edge environment, we’d love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

  • ML Pipeline Architecture & Development:
    • Design and maintain end-to-end ML pipelines on cloud platforms.
    • Build scalable training environments, leveraging distributed training techniques.
    • Develop efficient workflows for model experimentation and iteration, optimizing resource usage and training time. 
    • Integrate hybrid models (AI + physics-informed models) seamlessly into the pipeline, ensuring compatibility and performance.
  • Model Optimization & Integration:
    • Collaborate with Data Scientists to optimize training infrastructure and fine-tune model architectures.
    • Perform profiling and benchmarking to identify and resolve resource bottlenecks.
  • Reliability & Monitoring:
    • Set up robust monitoring and logging tools to track training, inference performance, and resource consumption.
    • Identify and address anomalies, latency issues, or performance bottlenecks in ML workflows.
    • Propose and implement improvements for reliability, consistency, and scalability in large-scale model training and inference pipelines.
    • Ensure traceability and reproducibility of workflows across different environments.
  • Collaboration & Best Practices:
    • Work closely with Data Scientists to ensure seamless handoff and integration of ML models.
    • Enforce best practices in MLOps, focusing on infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Terragrunt).
    • Collaborate with domain experts to ensure infrastructure aligns with technical and physical constraints.

Qualifications and Experience

  • Educational Background: 
    • Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or a related field.
