Company Overview

Intuit is the global financial technology platform that powers prosperity for the people and communities we serve. With tens of millions of customers worldwide using products such as TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, and Mailchimp, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to prosper. We never stop working to find new, innovative ways to make that possible.

Job Overview

In this role, you’ll be part of a vibrant team of Data Scientists and Machine Learning engineers. You’ll be expected to help architect, code, optimize, and deploy Machine Learning models at scale using the latest industry tools and techniques. You’ll also help automate, deliver, monitor, and improve machine learning solutions. Important skills include software development, systems engineering, data wrangling, feature engineering, architecting, and testing.


Responsibilities

  • Design and build systems which improve machine learning scalability, usability, and performance.
  • Work cross functionally with product managers, data scientists, and engineers to understand, implement, refine, and design machine learning and other algorithms.
  • Effectively communicate results to peers and leaders.
  • Explore the state-of-the-art technologies and apply them to deliver customer benefits.
  • Interact with a variety of data sources, working closely with peers and partners to refine features from the underlying data and build end-to-end pipelines


Use cases:

  • Model Productionalization: Work with data scientists to productionalize prototype models to the point where it can be used by customers at scale. This might involve increasing the amount of data used to train the model, automation of training and prediction, and orchestration of data for continuous prediction. The engineer would be expected to understand the details of the data being used and provide metrics to compare models.
  • Model Enhancement: Work on existing codebases to either enhance model prediction performance or to reduce training time. In this use case you will need to understand the specifics of the algorithm implementation in order to enhance it. This enhancement could be exploratory work based off of a performance need or directed work based off of ideas that other data science team members propose.
  • Machine Learning Tools: The Big Data Engineer would build a tool for a specific project, or multiple projects though generally these types of projects are decoupled from any one project. The goal of this type of use case would be to ease a pain point in the data science process. This may involve speeding up training, making a data processing easier, or data management tooling.
