Head of Applied ML

About the job

We are looking for a Head of Applied ML with 8-10+ years of battle-tested ML expertise to be our Director's technical thought partner and build a world-class ML organization from the ground up.

Our ML team has built impressive capabilities — but we learned on the job. We're smart, we've delivered results, but we know what's missing: someone who's seen ML at scale across multiple organizations.

You'll own ML strategy, mentor the team, prototype new approaches, and help us scale from current ML production to 30+ models daily by 2027. Critically, you'll bridge ML capabilities to product value — ensuring everything we build drives measurable business impact for billion-dollar clients.

This role is 30% hands-on (prototyping, validation) and 70% leadership (strategy, mentorship, team building).
