SENIOR MACHINE LEARNING ENGINEER (M/W/D) Four models in production today. Fifteen to twenty by mid-2027. The shared pipeline that gets them there has to hold — and you own everything after handoff: packaging, deployment, drift detection, and the call on whether a model is fit to serve. Location: Berlin Schöneberg — you work from our office, hybrid with 3 days office and 2 days home office. ABOUT US CarOnSale is the AI-powered platform for B2B used car trading in Europe. Over 40,000 buyers from more than 20 countries trade on our platform — and 85% of inventory is exclusive to us. We connect software, pricing intelligence, logistics and financing in one layer — as the operating system for an entire industry. One Platform. One Profit Engine. THE PLATFORM YOU BUILD IN Our machine learning runs on one shared, central platform — not a separate pipeline per model. Five canonical stages: data extraction, validation, transformation, training and evaluation. A Snowflake data warehouse feeds a SageMaker managed feature store, and models reach production through governed CI/CD promotion lanes on Terraform-managed AWS infrastructure. Your job is to build inside it and make it stronger, so the next model costs less to ship than the last one. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES * You own models from handoff through to production: packaging, deployment, monitoring, and the decision on whether a model is ready to serve * You keep production models reliable — drift detection, performance monitoring, alerting and incident response when something moves * You own the serving and inference path: fitted pipeline artifacts, inference entry points, monitoring hooks and feature-store parity * You review model design and evaluation methodology before anything ships, and catch data leakage, backward-window errors and weak evaluation during development, while they are still cheap to fix * You extend the shared platform so it stays useful for every model, without project-specific logic leaking into shared code * You set the engineering standards the platform runs on as it scales across the organisation WHAT YOU BRING * 2+ years in production machine learning engineering, with real ownership of models after handoff — not only training them * Strong Python: typed, tested, production-grade code, and you review the work of others * Enough machine learning depth to challenge a pipeline on problem framing, feature engineering, model selection and evaluation methodology * Hands-on experience with a managed ML platform — SageMaker, Vertex AI, Databricks or Azure ML — plus feature stores, CI/CD for machine learning, AWS and Terraform * An AI-native way of working: you use tools like Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot actively in your daily work * English at C1 level, written and spoken. German is not required — we work in English Nice to have * Snowflake and dbt — you can pick both up here * Experience mentoring colleagues or reviewing their work * Comfort operating where the answer is not defined yet WHAT TO EXPECT FROM US * Hybrid working: 3 days in office, 2 days remote – plus 25 "Work from Anywhere" days per year * 28 days annual leave * 2× annual career & development conversations * Company pension with 20% employer contribution * Fully paid Deutschlandticket (public transport) * FitX membership or Urban Sports Club subsidy * Virtual stock options — share in the upside * Modern IT setup for your day-to-day work * Structured onboarding with buddy programme and social events * Lived diversity: active women's network, meditation & prayer room, dog-friendly office Apply now — your CV is enough.
