What I'm looking for

I’m looking for Machine Learning Engineer roles where I can tackle engineering problems related to ML solutions (training pipelines, inference pipelines, serving models, fine-tuning models) at scale.

I want feel I’m making an impact in a product company. So I’m looking for roles at startups that are growing/scaling.

I’m Facu, a Machine Learning Engineer with 4+ years of hands-on experience building and deploying ML systems at scale. I hold a bachelor degree in Computer Engineering, and a postgraduate degree in Data Science.

I’m comfortable in startup environments as a technical generalist wearing multiple hats, but I want to be as close to ML/AI as possible. I’m passionate about data-driven decision making (I’d say 90% data, 10% gut) and I just want to build amazing products for people.

I would LOVE to work on the intersection between ML/AI and: robotics, life sciences, autonomous driving or aerospace. I’m eager to learn whatever it takes to be part of that.

Some of the stack I can handle: Python, PyTorch, PySpark, Apache Airflow, MLflow, FastAPI, SQL, AWS services, etc.
