　　Software Engineer, Machine Learning Responsibilities:

　　Play a critical role in setting the direction and goals for a sizable team, in terms of project impact, ML system design, and ML excellenceAdapt standard machine learning methods to best exploit modern parallel environments (e.g., distributed clusters, multicore SMP, and GPU)Re-evaluate the tradeoffs of already shipped features/ML systems, and you are able to drive large efforts across multiple teams to reduce technical debt, designing from first principles when appropriateLeading a team from a technical perspective to develop ML best practices and influence engineering cultureBe a go-to person to escalate the most complex online/production performance and evaluation issues, that require an in depth knowledge of how the machine learning system interacts with systems around itDevelop highly scalable classifiers and tools leveraging machine learning, data regression, and rules based modelsSuggest, collect and synthesize requirements and create effective feature roadmapCode deliverables in tandem with the engineering teamMinimum Qualifications:

　　Experience in one or more of the following areas: machine learning, recommendation systems, pattern recognition, data mining, artificial intelligence, or related technical fieldExperience with developing machine learning models at scale from inception to business impactKnowledge developing and debugging in C/C++ and Java, or experience with scripting languages such as Python, Perl, PHP, and/or shell scriptsExperience demonstrating technical leadership working with teams, owning projects, defining and setting technical direction for projectsPreferred Qualifications:

　　Masters degree or PhD in Computer Science or a related technical fieldExposure to architectural patterns of large scale software applicationsBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.About Meta:

　　Meta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today-beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.
