As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer (individual contributor) at Revecore, you will:

Use your expertise in machine learning, exploratory data analysis, and software engineering to enhance the productivity and efficiency of our underpayment business. You will work on projects with purpose, such as prioritizing claims based on expected recovery dollars and improving our claim\-remit matching process.

This is a modeling team that owns the model deployment process. You won't be creating dashboards or pivot tables. You won't just build POCs. Our team increases revenue and decreases costs: you will deploy your work and see the results as we increase our client hospitals' revenue.

The Role:

Own end\-to\-end development, training, deployment, evaluation, and improvement of machine learning systems to rank claim opportunities.

Analyze and explore data to identify actionable opportunities from internal and 3rd party data.

Research, implement, and launch new model architectures that drive business impact.

Partner and collaborate with cross\-functional teams of software engineers, data engineers, subject matter experts, product managers, and analysts to design and build practical solutions.

Implement cloud MLOps and AIOps best practices to streamline the development, deployment, and maintenance of machine learning models.

Continuously measure the impact of the AI\-enabled workflows on key business metrics and use these measurements to improve the machine learning models and workflows.

Learn from and teach your teammates. You will be the team's expert in your specialization, and you will learn from experts in theirs.

Own a workstream. You'll be the technical lead for the workstream, partnering with others to deliver. You'll also work on other projects, but this workstream will be one of your key successes.

You'll be successful if you have:

An urge to question assumptions, and to get it right (or at least good enough) even if your first idea is wrong.

A commitment to collaborate, rather than go off in a corner only to appear when you need to submit a pull request.

A bachelor's degree in any data\-centric field. Scientific thinking is a must.

Experience working in a similar role, with a focus on machine learning or data science.

Experience developing and deploying machine learning models in a production environment.

Strong experience with Python, including scikit\-learn. TensorFlow or PyTorch is a plus.

Ability to wrangle data, perform exploratory data analysis, and draw insights from visualizations.

Intuition about data developed by doing statistics and/or research.

Applied experience with contemporary natural language processing (NLP) techniques and tools (e.g., entity extraction, transformers, Hugging Face).

Experience with Spark.

Experience with operating ML pipelines in a cloud platform (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure).

A master's degree, Ph.D., or other experience demonstrating scientific thinking.

As part of our team, you'll be rewarded with:

Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and life insurance benefits from the start of your employment.

12 paid holidays and flexible paid time off.401(k) contributions.

Employee Resource Groups that build community.

Career growth opportunities.

An excellent work/life balance.

Work at Home Requirements:

A quiet, distraction\-free environment to work from in your home.

About This Role

AI/ML Engineers build and deploy machine learning models in production. They work across the full ML lifecycle: data pipelines, model training, evaluation, and serving infrastructure. The role has evolved significantly over the past two years. Where ML Engineers once spent most of their time on model architecture, the job now tilts heavily toward inference optimization, cost management, and integrating LLM capabilities into existing systems. Companies want engineers who can ship production systems, and the experimenter-only role is fading fast.

Day-to-day, you're writing training pipelines, debugging data quality issues, setting up evaluation frameworks, and figuring out why your model performs differently in staging than it did on your dev set. The best ML engineers are obsessive about reproducibility and measurement. They instrument everything. They know that a model is only as good as the data feeding it and the infrastructure serving it.

Across the 3,708 AI roles we're tracking, AI/ML Engineer positions make up 70% of the market. At Revecore, this role fits into their broader AI and engineering organization.

Demand for AI/ML Engineers has been strong and consistent. Unlike some AI roles that spike with hype cycles, ML engineering is a foundational need. Every company deploying AI models needs people who can keep them running, and the gap between research prototypes and production systems keeps growing.

What the Work Looks Like

A typical week might include: debugging a data pipeline that's silently dropping 3% of training examples, running A/B tests on a new model version, writing documentation for a feature flag system that lets you roll back model deployments, and reviewing a junior engineer's PR for a new evaluation metric. Meetings tend to be cross-functional since ML touches product, engineering, and data teams.

Demand for AI/ML Engineers has been strong and consistent. Unlike some AI roles that spike with hype cycles, ML engineering is a foundational need.

Skills Required

Aws (30% of roles) Azure (24% of roles) Gcp (17% of roles) Hugging Face (4% of roles) Python (51% of roles) Pytorch (15% of roles) Tensorflow (11% of roles) Transformers (2% of roles)

Python and PyTorch dominate the requirements. Most roles expect experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and familiarity with ML frameworks like TensorFlow or JAX. RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) has become a top-3 skill requirement as companies integrate LLMs into their products. Docker and Kubernetes show up in about a third of postings, reflecting the production focus of the role.

Beyond the core stack, employers increasingly want experience with experiment tracking tools (MLflow, Weights & Biases), feature stores, and vector databases. Fine-tuning experience is valuable but less common than you'd think from reading Twitter. Most production LLM work is RAG and prompt engineering, not fine-tuning. If you have both, you're in a strong position.

Companies that are serious about AI/ML hiring tend to post specific infrastructure details in the job description: the frameworks they use, their model serving stack, their data pipeline tools. Vague postings that just say 'ML experience required' without specifics are often companies that haven't figured out what they need yet.

Compensation Benchmarks

AI/ML Engineer roles pay a median of $218,750 based on 3,817 positions with disclosed compensation. Senior-level AI roles across all categories have a median of $230,000.

Across all AI roles, the market median is $217,500. Top-quartile compensation starts at $272,100. The 90th percentile reaches $325,000.

Remote Work Context

Remote AI roles pay a median of $185,334 across 717 positions. About 14% of all AI roles offer remote work.

Career Path

Common paths into AI/ML Engineer roles include Data Scientist, Software Engineer, Research Engineer.

From here, career progression typically leads toward ML Architect, AI Engineering Manager, Principal ML Engineer.

The fastest path into ML engineering is through software engineering with a self-directed ML education. A CS degree helps, but production engineering skills matter more than academic credentials. Build something that works, deploy it, and measure it. That portfolio project is worth more than a Coursera certificate. For career growth, the fork comes around the senior level: go deep on technical complexity (staff/principal track) or move into managing ML teams.

What to Expect in Interviews

Expect system design questions around ML pipelines: how you'd build a training pipeline for a specific use case, handle data drift, or design A/B testing infrastructure for model deployments. Coding rounds typically involve Python, with emphasis on data manipulation (pandas, numpy) and algorithm implementation. Take-home assignments often ask you to build an end-to-end ML pipeline from raw data to deployed model.

When evaluating opportunities: Companies that are serious about AI/ML hiring tend to post specific infrastructure details in the job description: the frameworks they use, their model serving stack, their data pipeline tools. Vague postings that just say 'ML experience required' without specifics are often companies that haven't figured out what they need yet.
