Senior Machine Learning Engineer

Job Description

Job Description

GiveCampus is the world's leading fundraising platform for non-profit educational institutions. Trusted by 1,300+ colleges, universities, and K-12 schools, our mission is to help advance the quality, the affordability, and the accessibility of education. We received a seed investment from Y Combinator in 2015 and have pursued a strategy of 'Sustainable Growth' ever since : achieving six consecutive years of profitability and positive cash-flow while more than quadrupling our revenue, our customer base, and our team. In 2022, we raised $50 million to accelerate the next stage of our growth.

Through The GiveCampus Social Mobility Initiative, we've donated $1 million in free fundraising support for programs that help low-income students, first-generation students, and underrepresented minorities. And in 2022 and 2023, we were named to Y Combinator's Top Companies list and the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies.

While we operate at meaningful scale (we've facilitated more than $6 billion in charitable giving), we're still small relative to the commercial and social good opportunities in front of us. Every GiveCampus employee has a substantial impact on our trajectory, and we're growing to help schools achieve even greater results.

Our purpose-driven team of 120+ is located across the US : team members work from anywhere they choose. We have a beautiful 12,000 sf office in Washington, DC that is available for people to use whenever they want, and we regularly organize team meet-ups, events, and retreats in various locations. We're looking to expand our team with diverse and collaborative doers who believe in our mission and the transformative power of affordable, high-quality education.

Location : This is a remote-first role based in the U.S. While we embrace flexible, distributed work, we also value in-person connection. Team members are expected to attend multiple company-wide and team-specific onsites throughout the year.

We're looking for a Senior ML Engineer to own the productionization and operational lifecycle of our machine learning models. You'll work closely with our Data Scientist, who focuses on customer discovery and prototype development, to take validated models from notebooks to production systems that serve predictions to our customers.

This is our first ML Engineer position , and you will be instrumental in defining the direction of our ML Platform. This is a high-impact role where you'll shape how we build and operate ML systems. You'll be responsible for the full journey from prototype handoff through deployment, monitoring, and ongoing maintenance. Over time, you'll build reusable tooling and self-service capabilities that enable faster iteration between Data Science and Production—reducing handoff friction and accelerating time-to-value for new models.

Responsibilities will include :

Model Productionization

• Transform non-production prototypes (e.g. Jupyter notebooks, standalone scripts, etc.) into modular, tested, production-ready Python code
• Containerize models with proper dependency management (Docker, ECR)
• Implement comprehensive testing : unit tests, integration tests, model validation
