MoonPay - Staff Machine Learning Engineer
Requirements
• Real-time serving. You have built and operated high-availability services that execute within strict latency budgets on critical paths, and you’ve designed robust fallback mechanisms • Systems thinking. You view the architecture holistically: identifying failure points, managing graceful degradation, and ensuring the system remains responsive even when dependencies fail. You build the feedback loops that allow a system to learn from its own decisions. • Engineering craft. You write code other people are happy to inherit — tested, typed, and correct when events arrive twice, late, or out of order. Adding the next feature to something you built is fast and painless. • Pipelines in production. You have owned feature or data pipelines end-to-end, including troubleshooting cases where offline and production metrics diverged and resolving the underlying discrepancies. • Ambiguity and influence. You've taken a problem nobody had scoped and turned it into work that shipped, and raised the level of the engineers around you while doing it. • Decision explainability. You've built systems where the reason for a decision mattered as much as the decision: audit trails, per-layer attribution, llm-driven analyses, or defending a model's behaviour to a non-technical audience. • Anomaly detection. You have developed systems to detect novel attack patterns and emerging abuse without existing labels, identifying suspicious behavior relative to historical baselines. • Familiarity with our stack: GCP, BigQuery, Bigtable, Memorystore, Vertex AI, Kubernetes. • Research has shown that women are less likely than men to apply for this role if they do not have experience in 100% of these areas. Please know that this list is indicative, and that we would still love to hear from you even if you feel that you are only a 75% match. Skills can be learned, diversity cannot.
