Staff Machine Learning Engineer at SurveyMonkey

This is a high-level technical leadership role for a seasoned expert in the data science and machine learning space. While the job title says "Mid-level," the requirements specifically ask for **12+ years of hands-on experience**, making this a role for a veteran professional who can blend deep technical execution with high-level mentorship and project strategy. You’ll be joining a team in Ottawa with a very flexible hybrid schedule (only one office day every two weeks). The work focus is on shipping the next generation of AI-powered features for a global platform, utilizing a modern stack that includes AWS SageMaker and Snowflake. This is a prime opportunity for someone who wants to remain hands-on while acting as a technical lighthouse for junior engineers. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have over a decade of experience building and deploying ML models (NLP, ranking, and personalization). * Are proficient with data orchestration and ML infrastructure like SageMaker, Airflow, and Snowflake. * Enjoy mentoring others and driving "excellence in execution" through better agile processes and technical reviews. * Live near Ottawa and prefer a "remote-first" hybrid balance with minimal in-office requirements.
