This is a high-impact opportunity to help shape Fetch’s Scan-to-Catalog foundation and significantly increase automation, quality, and match coverage across the platform.

Role Responsibilities:

  • Build and scale ML models across the scan, match and catalog pipeline, supporting receipt understanding, product matching, and catalog enrichment.
  • Implement and iterate on active learning strategies, including data sampling, error-driven retraining, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
  • Leverage LLMs to reduce model training and annotation effort, including synthetic data generation, assisted labeling, weak supervision, and error analysis.
  • Own ML experimentation, evaluation, and production inference for assigned SMaC components.
  • Collaborate with product, data, and platform partners to translate quality gaps into ML improvements.
  • Maintain high standards for model performance, reliability, and data quality.
  • Use AI tools to accelerate your work, including:
    • Designing features and validating ideas with ChatGPT & Claude sandboxes.
    • Leveraging AI for code generation and technical prototyping.
    • Using AI assistants for systems architecture diagramming and design validation.

Minimum Requirements:

  • 5+ years experience in software engineering, with production-level coding experience.
  • Strong proficiency in Python for ML development, with working knowledge of Go, and hands-on experience deploying models into production systems. Experience with AWS technologies and distributed systems.
  • Practical experience applying LLMs to reduce training and annotation effort, including assisted labeling, synthetic data generation, weak supervision, or error analysis.
  • Strong engineering mindset with the ability to deliver reliable, maintainable, and scalable systems.
  • Experience with AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or similar) to improve development efficiency and code quality.
  • Ability to critically evaluate AI-generated outputs, with strong debugging and problem-solving skills to validate correctness.

Preferred Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field. Equivalent practical experience considered in lieu of degree.
  • Familiarity with AI tools and frameworks like AWS Bedrock, Langchain, vector databases, or similar AI orchestration technologies.
  • Experience with machine learning workflows and large language models (LLMs).
  • Familiarity with orchestrating ML-driven actions in high-complexity or high-throughput environments.
  • Hands-on experience with computer vision and OCR, such as receipt/document parsing, layout-aware modeling, or image-based ML pipelines.
  • Experience working in small, fast-moving, cross-functional teams.

We're on a mission to help people have fun and save money. At Fetch, we're passionate about reinventing the way people shop by improving the convenience and efficiency of the customer experience. We provide a mobile rewards platform where you can accumulate points by shopping both in-store and online, and even by playing mobile games. You can then exchange these points for gift cards from your favorite retailers like Amazon, Apple, Walmart, and Target, or even opt for Visa Cash Cards. We believe that if you spend money with a brand, you should earn points that lead to you shifting your purchases over time and the brand retaining you as a customer. It's all about creating a system that's easier and more fun for you, the consumer.

Our journey began in 2013, founded by Wes Schroll and Tyler Kennedy during their time at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Wes, experiencing grocery shopping on his own for the first time as a college student, saw inefficiencies he wanted to change. For example, he realized that receiving a coupon for a product after purchase, when he would have bought more if he'd known beforehand, was a missed opportunity. This insight fueled our fundamental goal: to change the way grocery shopping has been done for over 50 years. We started with an app that allowed shoppers to scan items as they shopped, track spending, apply digital savings, and check out with a single barcode. Over time, we expanded to accept receipts from any store, which allowed us to scale rapidly. Today, we partner with hundreds of brands and retailers, helping them understand a 360-degree view of shopping habits and meaningfully reward individual customer loyalty. We're proud to have millions of active users who snap millions of receipts daily, turning everyday purchases into rewarding experiences. We're committed to making your world more rewarding, one receipt and one point at a time.
