Position: Machine Learning Engineer

Type: Contract

Compensation: $14/hour

Location: Remote

Role Responsibilities

  • Design and implement scalable ML pipelines for model training, evaluation, and continuous improvement.
  • Build and fine-tune deep learning models for reasoning, code generation, and real-world decision-making.
  • Collaborate with data scientists to collect and preprocess training data, ensuring quality and representativeness.
  • Develop benchmarking tools that test models across reasoning, accuracy, and speed dimensions.
