Job Description:
Senior Applied AI Engineer- Montreal Only
Plusgrade powers revenue engines for over 575 travel partners globally, and we need someone to architect and productionize our next-generation ML and LLM platforms to drive real-time, low-latency recommendation engines at scale.
What You'll Be Doing
You will design, deploy, and scale low-latency ML and LLM recommendation pipelines that feed real-time predictive data into core travel applications. You will own the entire lifecycle of production models, from solution architecture to automated retraining, drift monitoring, and CI/CD pipelines in AWS and Kubernetes. Our engineering workflows and delivery pipelines are built directly around cutting-edge AI infrastructure and automated observability systems to keep mission-critical products running smoothly. Working alongside Product, Operations, and Engineering teams, you will turn complex commercial challenges into high-throughput, production-ready AI solutions.
The Stack
Python · Java · SQL · PySpark · AWS (EKS, SageMaker, Bedrock, Agentcore, DynamoDB, Elasticache, Lambda, LoadBalancer, Glue, Kinesis, S3) · Kubernetes · Docker · Snowflake · SnowPark · RedShift · GrowthBook · GitLab · CI/CD · Argo CD · Splunk · DataDog
What You Bring
- You have a proven track record of productionizing, scaling, and monitoring machine learning models and LLM recommendation systems in low-latency, highly available environments.
- You master general software engineering principles with Python and Java, building robust RESTful APIs, containerized services with Docker and Kubernetes, and native AWS infrastructure.
- You own the entire ML lifecycle end-to-end, from data pipelines with SQL and PySpark to CI/CD, MLOps, model retraining, drift detection, and quality governance.
- You've re-engineered software workflows around AI capability, building shared systems and MLOps standards that raise the engineering bar and help your teammates move faster without sacrificing reliability.
- You are a self-driven problem solver and clear communicator who thrives in cross-functional settings, debugging complex issues independently and constantly digging into new tech.
