As a Machine Learning Engineer (MLE) on the AI & ML (Insights) team, you will play a critical role in delivering AI-powered features that extract meaningful insights from PitchBook’s wealth of structured and unstructured data including reports, news, and other textual content. This role requires deep technical expertise in advanced data analytics and machine learning, as well as a hands-on approach to designing, building, and optimizing ML solutions that power user-facing features on the PitchBook Platform. 

You will be deeply involved in the end-to-end development and operationalization of ML models, including their architecture, training, deployment, and ongoing maintenance. Your focus will span across natural language processing (NLP), generative AI (GenAI), large language models (LLMs), and scalable data systems. You will be expected to tackle complex technical challenges, contribute to architectural decisions, and collaborate closely with other engineers, data scientists, and product managers to ensure that your work aligns with business goals and AI/ML strategy. 

Your contributions will help unlock unique value for PitchBook customers by improving the speed, discoverability, quality, and quantity of insights available on the platform. This includes developing models that can infer meaning and structure from millions of discrete data sources and applying ML to enrich our datasets with predictive and generative intelligence.
