Senior machine learning engineer

Summary Scope: Tech Lead / Lead Engineer for machine learning solutions, MLOps, and deployment Salary range: €70,000 – €90,000 gross/year (depending on experience) Location: Turin Work model: Hybrid Stack: Python, scikit-learn, Py Torch/Tensor Flow, SQL, Time‑Series ML (forecasting/anomaly detection), MLflow, Airflow, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Observability, Azure/AWS, Edge/On‑prem About AI4 I and Our Culture The Italian Institute of Artificial Intelligence (AI4 I) is headquartered in the standout location of OGR, Turin, with the unique mission to support both applied research and on‑site deployment of AI. We are established to generate real‑world impact at the intersection of science, technology, and industrial transformation. Research units focus on topics such as secure and trustworthy AI, physical AI and multi‑agent systems while the deployment unit is responsible for the implementation at client site. A dedicated high‑performance computing center, including next‑generation GPU systems such as NVIDIA B200 accelerators, is available to support both research and industrial deployment. Our System User Knowledge platform and OGR‑based network connect corporates, SMEs, startups, and scientific partners, fostering workshops and collaboration with external partners to remain at the forefront of innovation. Role Summary Within the Deployment Unit, we are hiring a Senior Machine Learning Engineer who will operate as a hands‑on tech lead for client projects owning end‑to‑end machine learning pipelines, from data ingestion and feature engineering to model deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement. This is a highly hands‑on role for someone who combines strong software and data engineering skills with deep knowledge of machine learning methods and industrial use cases such as predictive maintenance, data quality control, anomaly detection, and operational performance improvement. You Will Work Closely With Deployment and Data Science team, delivering production‑grade ML systems Research units, to industrialize promising use cases emerging from applied research Industrial partners, ensuring solutions meet real operational needs and performance targets What You Will Do Act as a tech lead in projects and scope them and their technical feasibility through client interaction. Build and deploy ML pipelines for problems such as predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, process optimization, quality control and forecasting, tied to clear KPIs. Develop and maintain time‑series/event data pipelines (e.g., ingestion, cleaning, feature engineering, labeling) with reliability and traceability. Perform data exploration, feature engineering, model selection, hyperparameter tuning, validation, and performance analysis using appropriate ML techniques. Design robust solution architectures to run experiments and validate models integrating data pipelines, ML models, APIs, orchestration tools on cloud/on‑prem infrastructure. Deploy and scale models on cloud and/or edge using solid MLOps practices (i.e., establishing processes for monitoring, retraining, drift detection, performance tracking, and lifecycle management). Apply agentic AI‑assisted coding to reduce cycle time and improve results across the above responsibilities. About You Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics or related; Ph D a plus. Strong hands‑on experience (5+ years) building and deploying machine learning applications based on traditional ML methods, including regression, classification, anomaly detection and forecasting. Experience with optimization methods for industrial production (e.g., manufacturing, logistics). Strong Python + ML (e.g., scikit‑learn, Py Torch/Tensor Flow) and solid SQL on relational DBs/data warehouses and ETL/ELT pipelines. Strong software engineering background and experience with APIs and backend development, testing and debugging, Git, CI/CD pipelines, containers and microservices. Use agentic AI‑assisted coding workflows daily (e.g., Claude Code, Codex). Experience with end‑to‑end pipeline ownership leveraging production deployment patterns such as data pipelines, orchestration (e.g., Airflow), scheduled jobs, monitoring and observability with Prometheus, Grafana, or Open Telemetry, and MLOps practices using tools such as MLflow, Docker and Kubernetes. Hands‑on experience in designing cloud enterprise solutions with at least one hyperscaler (Azure/ AWS/ etc.) for data pipelines, training and deployment. Proficiency in Italian and English. Nice to Have Experience with computer vision for object recognition and quality assessment is a strong plus. Experience with time series analysis and forecasting from operational systems, sensors and machines. Experience with edge analytics or deployment in constrained industrial environments. Background in manufacturing, automation, or critical infrastructure, ideally with exposure to Io T and sensor data. Broad software engineering background, including experience with at least another programming language (e.g. Java, Java Script, C/C++), No SQL databases, distributed and cloud‑native systems.
