Engineering Job Description

Machine Learning Engineer

We are seeking a

Machine Learning Engineer

to build, deploy and operate scalable machine-learning and generative-AI solutions at Amgen. Working at the intersection of software engineering and data science, you will help transform models and AI prototypes into reliable, secure and production-ready applications and services. You will collaborate closely with data scientists, senior ML engineers, DevOps, Security, Compliance and Product teams to develop ML pipelines, model services and AI applications using modern cloud, MLOps and GenAI technologies. The role requires strong hands-on engineering skills, a solid understanding of machine-learning techniques and an interest in building enterprise-grade AI solutions.

Roles & Responsibilities

Develop end-to-end ML pipelines

covering data ingestion, feature engineering, evaluation, model registration and deployment using Kubeflow, SageMaker Pipelines or equivalent MLOps platforms. •

Productionize machine-learning and GenAI models

by converting research and prototype code into reliable services, packaging applications using Docker and Kubernetes, and exposing models through secure REST, gRPC or event-driven APIs. •

Build AI and GenAI applications

by integrating ML/LLM services with user interfaces, APIs, workflow engines and business-logic layers to deliver model-generated insights to end users. •

Develop and implement GenAI solutions

using LLMs, prompt engineering, embeddings, vector databases, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and agent-based frameworks. •

Implement monitoring and observability

for production ML applications, including model-performance metrics, application logs, distributed tracing, data/model drift detection and operational dashboards. •

Apply security and responsible-AI practices

including access controls, encryption, data lineage, model explainability, bias monitoring and secure handling of enterprise data. •

Develop reusable ML platform components

such as model-serving templates, feature-engineering utilities, experiment-tracking integrations and common libraries that improve development efficiency across teams. •

Perform exploratory data analysis and feature engineering

on structured and unstructured datasets to identify patterns, assess data quality and support model development. •

Evaluate and benchmark machine-learning algorithms

including regression, tree-based models, clustering, time-series approaches, deep-learning architectures and LLM-based techniques based on business and technical requirements. •

Collaborate with data scientists

to transition experiments and prototypes into scalable production implementations while maintaining model accuracy, reliability and reproducibility. •

Participate in code reviews, testing and CI/CD practices

to ensure ML services meet engineering quality, maintainability and deployment standards. •

Troubleshoot production ML systems

and work with platform and DevOps teams to resolve model, application, infrastructure and integration issues. •

Document technical designs, implementation patterns and operational procedures

to support maintainability and knowledge sharing across engineering teams.
