Are you passionate about building production-grade AI systems that continuously learn and improve from real-world feedback? We are looking for a Senior ML Engineer / Data Scientist to help develop intelligent recognition and entity-matching solutions for a large-scale media data platform.

In this fully remote role across Europe, you will work with Large Language Models, evaluation frameworks, and cloud-based ML pipelines to improve automation quality and reduce manual processing efforts. You will collaborate closely with Data Engineering teams and Customer stakeholders while owning the ML lifecycle end-to-end.

We at Sigma Software create impactful technology solutions for global customers and provide engineers with opportunities to work on meaningful, high-scale products using modern AI technologies. This role offers significant ownership, challenging engineering tasks, and the ability to influence production AI systems at scale.

Customer

Our Customer operates a large-scale platform focused on processing and structuring advertising and media operational data. The company is actively investing in intelligent automation and machine learning solutions to improve recognition accuracy across multiple station and network layouts while minimizing manual intervention in data processing workflows.

Project

The project focuses on building a self-learning Postlog and Prelog recognition system capable of automatically understanding new layouts, extracting structured data, and improving from production feedback. The solution leverages Large Language Models and modern ML practices to optimize recognition quality, entity matching, and confidence-based automation.

You will contribute to the development of scalable AI-driven workflows designed to achieve high automation accuracy, observability, and operational efficiency in production environments.
