What Does a Machine Learning Engineer Do?
A machine learning engineer designs, trains and — crucially — ships ML models into production. They sit between data science and software engineering: turning a promising model into a reliable, scalable service with monitoring, retraining and sensible latency.
Demand has surged with the rise of AI products. The role requires both modelling knowledge and solid software engineering to make models actually work in the real world.
Key skills
- Python & ML libraries (PyTorch, TensorFlow)
- Model training & evaluation
- MLOps & deployment
