About the Role:
In the ML Data Understanding team, our mission is to provide trusted and useful data to efficiently power all of Stack's ML applications end-to-end from mining to training to safety evaluation. We work hand-in-hand with AV autonomy teams to provide cutting-edge solutions to all their data needs, working across data engineering, mining, modeling and infrastructure. In particular, we provide services to find (data mining), curate (datasets), annotate (data labeling), search and serve (high throughput data access) data for all ML needs.
- Data Mining: We are building a framework and infrastructure to find interesting events quickly and flexibly. As part of this mission, you would be setting the direction for and helping us build an inference service using LLMs, open-world models and vector databases.
- Semantic Search for Data Mining: We are building the infrastructure of a highly scalable semantic search service for multimodal data to find interesting events quickly and flexibly. As part of this mission, you would be setting the direction for and helping us build an inference service using the latest AI models & approaches.
- Dataset management for training: We are building state of the art infrastructure to support machine learning training and inference workloads using OSS components such as Ray, Spark, Lance and Iceberg.
Responsibilities:
- Leverage AI-assisted software engineering to architect next-generation multimodal semantic search and data discovery platforms for autonomous driving development.
- Investigate and apply frontier large language models, visual language models, and state-of-the-art Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques.
- Build out agentic data mining, semantic search, and data curation workflows as part of a recursive self-improvement machine learning loop.
- Develop data understanding platform infrastructure for real-time querying/vector databases and batch/stream processing using technologies like Ray, Spark, LanceDB, or similar.
- Deliver end-to-end data mining solutions that span onboard (C++) and offboard (ML & Data Infra) infrastructure to accelerate AV product development.
- Develop e2e solution for real-time semantic search services (text/images/videos) and vector DBs.
- Discover and identify key issues in existing ML infra and proactively improve system performance.
- Build low latency/high throughput batch or stream processing pipelines.
- Drive technical discussions across multiple orgs and deliver solutions on a timely basis.
- Write readable and high-performance Python/C++ code.
Qualifications:
- Experience with both ML platforms and building ML-based applications.
- 5+ years of relevant domain experience.
- Proven track record of building scalable, reliable infrastructure in a fast-paced environment.
- Deep understanding of design trade-offs with the ability to articulate those trade-offs and achieve alignment with others.
- Hands-on background in developing semantic search infrastructure, generating multimodal (video/image/audio) embeddings, and managing vector databases.
- Experience with multi-modal data indexing, model training infrastructure, model optimization, or large data processing pipelines.
- Experience in building ML models or infrastructure in autonomous vehicles, perception, and decision-making domains (desirable but not required).

Tips for Your Remote ML Engineer Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote ml engineer openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your stack and apply directly. Remote postings at in-demand companies often fill fast, so checking frequently and applying promptly matters.
Show async communication in your application
Remote ml engineer teams rely on written documentation and async updates over Slack, Confluence, or Notion. Your cover letter and any take-home assessments should demonstrate that you can explain model decisions, tradeoffs, and experiment results clearly in writing, without a meeting.
Make your ML portfolio remote-readable
Remote employers review your GitHub or portfolio before a call, not during one. Structure your repositories with clear READMEs, reproducible notebooks, and documented results so a hiring manager can follow your thinking independently, without asking follow-up questions.
Prepare for remote-specific technical screens
Remote ml engineer interviews often include a take-home or async coding assessment rather than a live whiteboard. Practice writing clean, well-commented model code you could hand off to a teammate who will read it cold, since that mirrors how distributed teams actually work.
Remote ML Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote ml engineer job?
Target companies that run distributed engineering teams, since those employers already know how to onboard and manage ml engineers remotely. Remote hiring managers screen hard for self-direction, clear async written communication, and hands-on experience with MLflow, DVC, or similar experiment-tracking tools. A public GitHub with documented projects or a portfolio showing model development end-to-end will give you a concrete edge over candidates who only list skills.
Which companies hire remote ml engineers?
Companies hiring remote ml engineers right now include Atlas Technologies, Atlassian, and Lockheed Martin, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote ml engineer roles are concentrated at remote-first tech firms, AI-native startups, and distributed enterprise teams in sectors like software, fintech, and healthcare.
Can you get a remote ml engineer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level ml engineer roles are harder to land because employers expect you to troubleshoot independently without on-site support. Your best path is through AI-native startups and research-oriented companies that value demonstrated ability over tenure. A documented Kaggle competition, an open-source contribution, or a self-built end-to-end ML project hosted publicly shows remote employers you can deliver without hand-holding.
Do you need a degree for remote ml engineer jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers weigh demonstrated ML skills, shipped projects, and familiarity with production tooling, such as PyTorch, Kubernetes, or cloud ML platforms, alongside or instead of a formal degree. Roles at research-heavy or enterprise companies tend to prefer a graduate degree, while remote-first startups and product teams often prioritize what you have built and deployed.
Which industries hire the most remote ml engineers?
The sectors hiring the most remote ml engineers are Technology & Software, Hospitality & Tourism, and Retail, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These industries favor remote ml engineers because their teams are already distributed globally and their data pipelines and model workflows run entirely in cloud environments.
