As a Machine Learning (ML) Engineer at Elanco, you will be a key member of our engineering team, specializing in the end-to-end lifecycle of custom and third-party machine learning models. You will translate complex business problems into scalable, production-ready AI solutions, applying a strong blend of software engineering discipline and deep ML expertise to design, build, and deploy models that deliver real-world value.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Model Development & Utilisation: Design, build, and train bespoke ML models, and identify, tune, and deploy third-party ML models (proprietary and open-source).
  • Production Deployment & MLOps: Manage the deployment of ML models into production environments, ensuring scalability and reliability, and build/maintain robust MLOps pipelines for CI/CD, monitoring, and automated retraining.
  • Data Pipeline Construction: Collaborate with data engineers/stewards to build and optimize data pipelines that feed ML models, ensuring data quality and efficient processing.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with data scientists, product managers, and software engineers to define requirements, integrate models, and deliver impactful features.
  • Code Quality & Performance Tuning: Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested production-grade code, upholding high software engineering standards, and monitor/analyze model performance for optimization.

What You Need to Succeed (minimum qualifications):

  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, or a related quantitative field.
  • Proven hands-on experience deploying machine learning models into a production environment.
  • Advanced proficiency in Python with deep experience in core ML/data science libraries, coupled with a strong foundation in software engineering principles.

What will give you a competitive edge (preferred qualifications):

  • Experience with MLOps tools and frameworks and containerisation technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Practical experience with Public Cloud (Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform) and their ML services (e.g., Azure ML, Vertex AI).
  • Proven experience with relevant DevSecOps concepts and tooling, including CI/CD, Git SCM, Containerisation, and Infrastructure-as-Code (HashiCorp Terraform).
  • Solid understanding of the theoretical foundations of machine learning algorithms, including deep learning, NLP, and classical ML.
