Prior RL Gym experience is not mandatory but would be a plus.
Day-to-Day Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain FastAPI-based services for experimentation workflows and simulation environments.
- Collaborate with ML engineers to expose APIs for training, evaluation, and benchmarking.
- Write efficient, production-grade Python code with a strong emphasis on scalability and maintainability.
- Troubleshoot performance issues, optimize pipelines, and ensure smooth deployment of applications.
Requirements
- 4+ years of professional Python development experience, including 3+ years with FastAPI
- Experience with REST APIs, async programming, and API lifecycle management
- Solid understanding of software engineering best practices: testing, CI/CD, version control, design patterns
- Familiarity with NumPy, Pandas, and PyTorch/TensorFlow is a plus
- Good to have: Exposure to Reinforcement Learning environments (OpenAI Gym, Gymnasium, Stable Baselines, or custom environments) & SQL experience
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field
