Who you will work with

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) is one of the key groups within Enterprise Data and AI and we have been chartered to help scale machine learning across Nike. One way we do this is by bringing cross-disciplinary teams of data scientists and engineers to areas of the business which are early in their AI journey. For areas of the business which are more mature and already have data science teams, we help scale machine learning by providing squads of engineers to improve the velocity of those data science teams in delivering value to the business. Our teams work across time zones in the US West, US East, and Europe. Lastly, we work closely with our platform and architecture partners to develop capabilities which help machine learning scale easier at Nike (e.g. model management, A/B testing, feature stores).

What you bring

Bachelor’s Degree in computer science, software engineering, or related field (Masters or Ph.D. preferred)

10 + years of experience in developing production grade code, preferably related to analytics or machine learning.

Deep knowledge of software architecture and engineering best practices, especially modern cloud computing stacks for deploying machine learning and microservices at scale. For example, AWS Sagemaker, EKS for Kubernetes, Docker for containers, Jenkins for CI/CD, Tensorflow or Keras for a deep learning framework.
