Preferred qualifications

  • Experience with common ML libraries (scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow) through coursework or projects.
  • Familiarity with model deployment patterns (APIs, batch scoring, streaming/online scoring).
  • Exposure to MLOps concepts (experiment tracking, model registry, CI/CD, monitoring).
  • Familiarity with cloud (GCP/AWS) and containers (Docker) is a plus.
  • Understanding of responsible AI and privacy (PII handling, access control, evaluation).
  • Experience using AI assistants responsibly for coding and analysis.
  • You ship at least one end-to-end ML improvement (model, feature, or service) that runs reliably.
  • You can explain model performance clearly: what improved, what did not, and why.
  • Monitoring is in place for your models, and you react quickly when metrics drift.
  • You reduce manual effort for the team by adding a reusable component, template, or automation.

About the company

At Tamara, we believe exceptional talent deserves an exceptional launchpad.

Our Flagship Builders Program is designed for ambitious graduates ready to step into real responsibility from day one. This isn’t a rotational “observer” program, it’s a career accelerator built for those who want to build, own, and raise the bar early.
