This Machine Learning Engineer L2 position is an incomplete job requisition template. It does not provide specific responsibilities, qualifications, technologies, education requirements, or measurable role details. The position is described as remote-first at Twilio, with occasional travel potentially required for team or project meetings.

The AI/Machine Learning Specialist designs and implements AI solutions, collaborates with cross-functional teams, and continuously improves ML processes.

Develops and deploys machine learning systems for high-stakes decisions in pricing, claims, underwriting, and predictive health. Responsibilities span problem framing, quantitative research, experimentation, causal inference, predictive modeling, multimodal and foundation model development, agent systems, production deployment, and ongoing iteration. The role requires strong mathematical and statistical foundations, Python fluency, and expertise in machine learning, statistics, econometrics, or causal inference.

Build and deploy low-latency machine learning models and inference infrastructure for Netflix’s advertising platform. Develop identity resolution, behavioral and contextual targeting, lookalike expansion, user signals, and audience features at massive scale. Collaborate with science, product, engineering, operations, design, and research teams to productionize models while supporting privacy, governance, security, and advertiser brand safety.

Lead end-to-end development of an AI-driven decision-support system for multi-sensor data. Responsibilities include building data ingestion and fusion pipelines, training and deploying supervised and unsupervised ML models, optimizing near-real-time inference, creating GPU-accelerated dashboards, integrating modular containerized systems, and supporting secure deployment and testing. The role works directly with the founder, owns technical delivery autonomously, and collaborates with subcontractors on human factors, model validation, and security auditing.

Build and deploy deep-learning models for financial market data, owning the full workflow from raw data and experiments through daily production inference. Responsibilities include managing small-scale GPU infrastructure, conducting leakage-proof and regime-aware evaluations, reproducing research, reading recent AI literature, and communicating findings. The role requires strong ML fundamentals, Python and PyTorch expertise, hands-on infrastructure skills, rigorous experimentation, and self-directed remote work. Trading experience is not required.
