About the job
At SoundCloud, we empower artists and fans to connect and share through music. Established in 2007, our platform prioritizes artists, providing them with innovative tools and resources to enhance their careers. With a vast library of over 400 million tracks from 40 million artists, SoundCloud is revolutionizing the future of music.
We are excited to invite a talented Senior Machine Learning Engineer to join our Recommendations Experience team. In this role, you will develop machine learning-powered features that enhance personalization, engagement, and overall satisfaction for our users. Although this is primarily a machine learning engineering position, you will be expected to leverage your strong technical skills across the full stack, extending from data pipelines to APIs and real-time serving.
Your responsibilities will encompass the entire feature lifecycle: from identifying user needs in collaboration with Product and Design teams, to architecting data pipelines that process billions of events, and building and deploying production ML systems that balance performance, cost, and user experience. You will work with technologies such as BigQuery (handling trillion-row datasets), Airflow orchestration, BigTable for real-time serving, and APIs, while maintaining close collaboration with Product, Design, Engineering, and Platform teams.
