Machine Learning Engineer Job at Barker Staffing Solutions LLC in Mountain View

Barker Staffing Solutions LLC, Mountain View, CA, United States


About the Role
We're building the next generation of agentic AI systems, intelligent, autonomous agents that reason, act, and continuously improve. As a Machine Learning Engineer , you won't just build models, you'll architect the entire ecosystem where our AI agents live, learn, and operate.

This is a high-impact role for a product-minded, systems-level thinker who thrives in ambiguity and wants to shape foundational AI infrastructure from the ground up.

You'll work at the intersection of LLMs, distributed systems, and real-world applications , owning everything from core ML architecture to customer-facing experiences.

What You'll Do

Architect & Build Agentic Systems

Design and develop our core agentic AI platform, enabling autonomous reasoning, decision-making, and continuous learning

Implement multi-agent orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangGraph)

Own the ML & Data Infrastructure

Architect a modern lakehouse-based data platform

Build scalable data pipelines, feature stores, and real-time ML serving systems

Develop LLM-Powered Applications

Build and optimize RAG systems , prompt pipelines, and reasoning workflows

Develop customer-facing applications, including a seamless AI chat interface

Build Tool Machines for Agents

Create reliable, safe, and extensible tools that allow agents to interact with external systems, APIs, and data sources

Drive MLOps & Model Lifecycle

Partner with data scientists to design infrastructure for training, fine-tuning, evaluation, and deployment

Implement robust experimentation, monitoring, and feedback loops

Ship Production-Grade Systems

Write high-quality, scalable Python code

Ensure reliability, observability, and performance across distributed systems

What We're Looking For
Core Requirements

3–8 years of experience in Machine Learning Engineering or Software Engineering (ML-focused)

Strong production experience with Python

Hands-on experience with:

ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)

LLMs, agentic frameworks (e.g., LangGraph), or RAG systems

Experience designing scalable ML systems (training + serving)

Preferred Background

Experience at top-tier tech companies (e.g., Meta, Google, Reddit, Pinterest)

Combined experience across Big Tech + high-growth startup environments

Background in ads, search, recommendation systems, or large-scale ML platforms

Prior experience at a venture-backed startup

Nice to Have

MLOps and infrastructure experience:

Kubernetes, MLflow, model serving systems

Data engineering experience:

Spark, Airflow, dbt, ETL/streaming pipelines

Experience designing systems using lakehouse architectures

Education

Master's or PhD in Computer Science (or related field), OR

Bachelor's degree + strong professional experience in software/ML engineering

Tech Stack

Languages & Frameworks: Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow

AI/LLM: LangGraph, RAG architectures

Infrastructure: Kubernetes, MLflow

Data: Spark, Airflow, dbt, lakehouse architecture

Who You Are

Product-minded: You think about user experience, not just models

Systems thinker: You design for scale, reliability, and extensibility

Builder: You ship fast, iterate quickly, and thrive in ambiguity

Impact-driven: You want to own and shape foundational technology

What Success Looks Like

You've built scalable systems powering autonomous AI agents in production

You've improved model performance and reliability through robust infrastructure and feedback loops

You've delivered end-to-end ML products used by real customers

Why Join Us

Build cutting-edge agentic AI systems from the ground up

Own foundational architecture across the entire AI stack

Work alongside a team operating at the intersection of LLMs, infrastructure, and product

Massive opportunity for ownership, impact, and growth
