You will lead rapid research cycles to solve complex problems regarding contextual intelligence and large scale ML problems ensuring every interaction feels seamless and personalised.

### Responsibilities

- Build ML systems that hold up at Twilio scale.
- Rapidly acquire new technical skills and knowledge in a fast-paced, high-delivery environment.
- Proactively leverage and integrate the latest AI development stacks to bypass boilerplate engineering and focus on core differentiation.
### Qualifications

### \*Required

- 8+ years applied ML/AI experience with a track record of owning technically ambitious systems end to end rather than contributing to someone else's design.
- Comfort operating in a 0-to-1 setting with ambiguous requirements and a strong bias for action.
- Proficiency in Python programming language.
- Experience building cloud-based services on AWS, GCP, or Azure, with high-volume data, streaming or real-time inference paths, and a range of data stores.
- Strong fundamentals of statistical machine learning algorithms, transformer models, LLMs
- Ability to raise the technical bar of a team through mentorship, design review, and standards, without formal management authority.
- Experience in building cloud-based services using AWS, GCP, or Azure.
- Strong communication skills and highly effective collaborator who works well with teammates.
### Desired

- Prior experience building autonomous agents that handle multi-turn conversations and maintain long-term context/consistency.
- Strong background in predictive modeling on user behavior, including experiment design and the causal or counterfactual methods needed when randomization is partial.
- Prior experience working in a globally distributed team.
### Location

This role will be remote, and based in India - Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana State, Maharashtra and New Delhi.

### Travel

We prioritize connection and opportunities to build relationships with our customers and each other. For this role, you may be required to travel occasionally to participate in project or team in-person meetings.
