As a Staff ML Infrastructure Engineer, you will lead development of a platform for large scale ML models at Reddit
Design end-to-end model lifecycle patterns (MLOps) to boost velocity of development for ML engineers, including data preparation, model management, experiment tracking, and more
Zero-to-one development and support of a graph ML codebase and platform that abstracts away common patterns and enables greater model scalability and iteration
Collaborate with ML engineers on performance tuning, including improving model training time, efficiency, and GPU training costs in a large, distributed ML training environment
Optimize batch data processing within a data warehouse and with tools such as Apache Beam, Apache Spark, Ray Data, and more
Architect pipelines to build and maintain massive graph data structures on the order of billions of nodes and tens of billions of edges

Our take

Reddits is an online platform that hosts thousands of message board communities (known as subreddits) designed to foster authentic human connection. With more than 130,000 communities covering everything from food, entertainment and sports, to niche interests for highly specific audiences, there's virtually a space for everyone.

The platform attracts over 120 million daily users and billions of monthly page views. While these figures are smaller than those of social media giants like Facebook and X, Reddit stands out by offering easily discoverable communities where users can dive deep into virtually any topic imaginable.

Today, Reddit continues to grow its user base and expand its reach, remaining a unique hub for conversation, connection and shared interests. With its strong community-driven model and steady revenue streams, it's most definitely positioned to stay a central part of online culture for years to come.
