Role
Who you are
- Solid foundation of fundamental or object oriented programming skills; we use a lot of Python in this problem space but proficiency in other languages is equally welcome
- Experience building and/or training ML models using a Python Framework, such as PyTorch or TensorFlow, in a classroom setting or hands-on environment (e.g. prior work experience, side projects, research, or coding competitions)
- Experience deploying applications to a public cloud environment (e.g. AWS)
- Experience with test writing and quality assurance methodologies
- Passion for tackling challenging and ambiguous problems in a fast-paced environment
- Ability to effectively communicate across a variety of technical and nontechnical audiences
- Desire to grow your software engineering skills through collaboration, open communication, direct feedback and knowledge sharing
- Program Eligibility:
- Ability to work full-time (40 hours per week) from either one of Fetch’s offices or remotely, in the United States, for a fixed term of 12-16 weeks
- While a degree is not required for this position, the apprenticeship program is not intended for students who are actively enrolled in a full-time, degree-seeking program
- Due to the short-term nature of this role, we are not able to transfer existing H1Bs or support new applications for the FY 2026 lottery
Desirable
- Statistical testing and analysis experience (e.g. A/B testing, experimental design); you understand the math behind what makes these models work
- Experience working with compilers such as ONNX, TensorRT, Triton, or CUDA
- Experience with search, ranking or ads
- Experience building fraud detection models
- Experience with model servers like TFServing/TorchServe/Triton
- Experience collaborating cross-functionally with backend and mobile engineers, devops engineers, data scientists, et al
What the job involves
- The ML Engineering team embodies these values and works to enable intelligent systems for end users, internal stakeholders, and external partners
- As a Machine Learning Apprentice, you will contribute to this vision and reap the rewards of joining an exciting company in the high growth phase
- Among other things, Fetch uses ML/AI to power receipt understanding (digital and physical), fraud detection, and we’re rapidly evolving in the space of ads ranking, recommendation, search, and discovery
- Machine learning is core to our product and we’re working to make it an even bigger part of the company
- You will work on solving challenging problems at the intersection of developing the models and the infrastructure needed to operationalize them at scale
- The ML Team at Fetch is responsible for the full life-cycle of machine learning
- This includes data labeling/collection/management, model development, and deploying to large-scale production settings
- We work closely with backend, devops and data engineers on focused teams
Our take
Leading mobile shopping and loyalty platform Fetch has seen explosive success in recent years. Its concept is simple: users receive spendable points in exchange for scans of their shopping receipts.
The app has tens of millions of daily active users with even more downloads, and has seen impressive growth, having now reached 'unicorn' status twice over. This should come as no surprise. Brand reinforcement is crucial to customer retention and acquisition - but it is harder than ever, with the fragmentation of choice on the market and the declining efficacy of marketing. So material loyalty benefits are likely to prove a crucial tool in creating and leveraging a strong customer base.
Whilst Fetch faces competition from similar receipt-scan rewards platforms like ReceiptPal and Ibotta, it grew into a profitable company in late 2023. It is using its most recent Morgan Stanley-backed funding to aggressively add brand partners at a competitive pace and onboarding staff at a level that promises strong continued growth.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Fetch
Shonita Torry, SHRM-CP (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging Specialist )
- Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging are key areas of focus for Fetch as we grow.
- As we build a more DEIB focused organization it is every one of our jobs to become more inclusive in our thoughts, speech, decisions and actions.
- Diversity. The presence of a multitude of demographic differences within our teams.
- Equity. Promoting fairness while acknowledging the different needs of individuals within our organization as they pertain to our internal processes and procedures.
- Inclusion. Our focus on our employees' feeling they are respected, have agency and are able to participate and achieve to their goals.
- Belonging. The sentiments and feelings of psychological safety and support when inclusion is realized. Belonging occurs when there is an acceptance of individuals regardless of their intersections of identity.
- Our objective is for people of all identities to be included and represented across our organization. We practice inclusion and representation by amplifying voices, creating and maintaining respectful relationships, and cultivating an equitable workplace and community for all.
- To accomplish this objective, we've implemented New Hire INCLUSION orientation on day one.
- "My personal belief is that when a company leads with INCLUSION first, then Diversity, Equity, and Belonging will organically grow. This is what we are creating at Fetch - a CANVAS of INCLUSION. You get to help paint on this canvas." Shonita Torry SHRM-CP, DEIB Specialist
