A Quick Note on the Role's Focus

While the title is Senior ML Engineer, this opportunity is specifically focused on ML Platform Engineering rather than ML model development or data science.

We're looking for engineers with strong software engineering fundamentals and hands-on experience building, scaling, and operating the platforms and infrastructure that enable machine learning in production. The emphasis is on ML infrastructure, MLOps, model serving, platform reliability, and production engineering, rather than primarily developing, training, or fine-tuning ML models.


Location Note

We’re excited to consider talent currently based in India, as well as candidates who are open to relocating to India for this opportunity. Please note that, as this is a "Remote–India" position, the role must be performed from within India.


The Opportunity

The Machine Learning Platform team builds the software foundations that enable data scientists and machine learning engineers to develop, validate, deploy, and operate models safely and efficiently in production. In this role, you’ll lead complex platform work from business context through production outcomes, combining hands-on engineering, architectural judgment, production ownership, and mentorship. In your first year, success means leading meaningful platform initiatives, improving reliability and developer experience, and becoming a trusted technical leader for the ML platform.

At Oportun, we move fast and hold each other to a high bar. You’ll partner across Data Science, Product, Risk, Fraud, and Engineering to solve ambiguous problems and move the needle for members and the business.
