Software Engineer, Machine Learning

Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta), formerly known as Facebook Inc., builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps and services like Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology.

As a Software Engineer in Machine Learning at Meta, you will:

• Research, design, develop, and test operating systems-level software, compilers, and network distribution software for massive social data and prediction problems.
• Work on a range of classification and optimization problems, such as payment fraud, click-through or conversion rate prediction, click-fraud detection, ads/feed/search ranking, text/sentiment classification, collaborative filtering/recommendation, or spam detection.
• Develop highly scalable systems, algorithms, and tools leveraging deep learning, data regression, and rules-based models.
• Suggest, collect, analyze, and synthesize requirements and bottlenecks in technology, systems, and tools.
• Develop solutions that iterate orders of magnitude with higher efficiency, efficiently leverage more data, and explore state-of-the-art deep learning techniques.
• Code deliverables in tandem with the engineering team.
• Adapt standard machine learning methods to best exploit modern parallel environments (e.g., distributed clusters, multicore SMP, and GPU).

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Software, Computer Engineering, Applied Sciences, Mathematics, Physics, or related field
• 1 year of experience in job offered or in a computer-related occupation
• Experience with Machine Learning Frameworks: PyTorch, MXNet, or Tensorflow
• Knowledge of machine learning, recommendation systems, ranking systems, computer vision, natural language processing, data mining, or distributed systems
• Experience translating insights into business recommendations
• Familiarity with Hadoop/HBase/Pig or MapReduce/Sawzall/Bigtable/Spark
• Proficiency in developing and debugging in C/C++ and Java
• Experience with scripting languages such as Perl, Python, PHP, or shell scripts
• Knowledge of relational databases and SQL
• Experience with software development tools: Code editors (VIM or Emacs), and revision control systems (Subversion, GIT, or Perforce)
• Familiarity with Linux, UNIX, or other *nix-like OS
• Experience building highly-scalable performant solutions
• Understanding of distributed systems including sharding, consistency, and availability
• Strong knowledge of data structures and algorithms
