Your impact

As a Machine Learning Engineer specializing in personalization, you will have significant customer-facing impact, which includes defining the personalized customer experience.

In this role, you will:

• Build scalable end-to-end machine learning solutions for challenging customer problems.
• Explore novel techniques to tackle previously unsolved problems.
• Promote excellence and best practices across the Machine Learning team with regards to research, implementation, tooling, and system design.
• Work cross-functionally with various teams to get new features shipped across our many interfaces.
• Effectively communicate technical machine learning results in a business context where most people are not machine learning experts.

We’re looking for someone who

• Embodies our EAGER values—is ethical, adaptable, gritty, empathetic, and remarkable.
• Is able to collaborate in person 2 weeks per quarter, traveling if necessary to the hub where the team is based.
• Understands traditional machine learning algorithms, state-of-the-art techniques—including deep learning—and how to use them effectively in practice.
• Is familiar with some combination of modern NLP techniques, recommendation, relevance, or personalization and their applications in industry.
• Is comfortable reading academic papers and can take interesting ideas and apply them.
• Understands data structures and algorithms at a level sufficient to write performant code when working with large datasets or large incoming data streams.

Support for you, professionally and personally

• Professional growth: We believe that autonomy and trust are key to empowering our team members to do their best, most innovative work in a way that aligns with their interests, talents, and well-being. We support professional development and advancement with training, coaching, and regular feedback.
• A connected team: Grammarly builds a product that helps people connect, and we apply this mindset to our own team. Our remote-first hybrid model enables a highly collaborative culture supported by our EAGER (ethical, adaptable, gritty, empathetic, and remarkable) values. We work to foster belonging among team members in a variety of ways. This includes our employee resource groups, Grammarly Circles, which promote connection among those with shared identities, such as BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ team members, women, and parents. We also celebrate our colleagues and accomplishments with global, local, and team-specific programs.
