Kitchener, Canada Faire Full time
About Faire

Faire is an online wholesale marketplace built on the belief that the future is local - independent retailers around the globe are doing more revenue than Walmart and Amazon combined, but individually, they are small compared to these massive entities. At Faire, we're using the power of tech, data, and machine learning to connect this thriving community of entrepreneurs across the globe. Picture your favorite boutique in town - we help them discover the best products from around the world to sell in their stores. With the right tools and insights, we believe that we can level the playing field so that small businesses everywhere can compete with these big box and e-commerce giants.

By supporting the growth of independent businesses, Faire is driving positive economic impact in local communities, globally. We're looking for smart, resourceful and passionate people to join us as we power the shop local movement. If you believe in community, come join ours.

About this role

At Faire we build elegant and efficient products to deliver superior customer experiences and enhance marketplace efficiency at the same time. From the mobile checkout process, to personalized search ranking, to the intelligent underwriting engine that determines credit limits for retailers --- we use data and machine learning to constantly iterate and innovate our product offering to create more value for the ecosystem.

Faire is searching for a top-notch senior engineer to lead design and execution as we continue to build our machine learning platform that will power our wholesale marketplace.

    • Deep learning infrastructure that powers training and serving of Faire's language and image models
    • Model prediction services to manage model deployment, inference and monitoring
  • Partner with our internal customers to understand their ML development pain points and craft platform solutions to address them.
  • Provide technical mentorship to ML engineers and interns on the team.

What it takes:
  • 3+ years experience building production machine learning systems or platform components such as feature store, model training framework, ML prediction service, etc.
  • Degree in a relevant discipline such as Computer Science, Machine Learning, or another similar field.
  • Strong coding skills in Python/Java or equivalent.
  • Experience working within common backend system architectures (e.g. microservices).
  • Strong understanding of engineering and infrastructure best practices, general software development principles with a machine learning software development life-cycle orientation.

Salary Range

This role will be in-office on a hybrid schedule - Faire employees will be expected to go into the office 2 days per week on Tuesdays and Thursdays, effective the week of January 13, 2025. Additionally, in-office roles will have the flexibility to work remotely up to 4 weeks per year.

Why you'll love working at Faire:
  • We are entrepreneurs: Faire is being built for entrepreneurs, by entrepreneurs. We believe entrepreneurship is a calling and our mission is to empower entrepreneurs to chase their dreams. Every member of our team is taking part in the founding process.
  • We are using technology and data to level the playing field: We are leveraging the power of product innovation and machine learning to connect brands and boutiques from all over the world, building a growing community of more than 350,000 small business owners.
  • We build products our customers love: Everything we do is ultimately in the service of helping our customers grow their business because our goal is to grow the pie - not steal a piece from it. Running a small business is hard work, but using Faire makes it easy.
  • We are curious and resourceful: Inquisitive by default, we explore every possibility, test every assumption, and develop creative solutions to the challenges at hand. We lead with curiosity and data in our decision making, and reason from a first principles mentality.
