In this role, you’ll be a key contributor to both the product vision and AI architecture, driving innovations across the entire ecosystem — from system design and LLM fine-tuning to context engineering, evaluation, and deployment. Your work will enable personalized, proactive, and conversational shopping experiences powered by state-of-the-art large language models and agentic frameworks.

Essential Responsibilities:

  • Lead the development and optimization of advanced machine learning models.
  • Oversee the preprocessing and analysis of large datasets.
  • Deploy and maintain ML solutions in production environments.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate ML models into products and services.
  • Monitor and evaluate the performance of deployed models, making necessary adjustments.

Expected Qualifications:

  • 5+ years relevant experience and a Bachelor’s degree OR Any equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Extensive experience with ML frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, or scikit-learn.
  • Expertise in cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and tools for data processing and model deployment.

Your Day-to-Day

  • Design, develop, and evolve Commerce Agentic System, advancing its reasoning, memory, and action layers to create dynamic, context-aware user experiences.

  • Fine-tune large language models (LLMs) for commerce and shopping applications, ensuring robust alignment, safety, and personalization.

  • Implement and extend agentic frameworks such as A2A (Agent-to-Agent), MCP (Model Context Protocol),LangGraph, orsimilar toenable complex multi-agent interactions.

  • Perform advanced context and prompt engineering,optimizingmulti-turn, multi-source model orchestration for superior performance and responsiveness.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and platform engineering teams to define the next generation of agentic capabilities and AI interface strategies.

  • Experiment with reinforcement learning, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and online adaptation to refine agent behavior and enhance response quality.

  • Build scalable, production-ready pipelines for model training, evaluation, and continuous improvement.

  • Communicate insights and technical trade-offs clearly to influence both engineering decisions and PayPal’s broader AI strategy.

Bring

  • Master’s degree (or higher) in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, or a related quantitative discipline.

  • 5+ years of relevant industry experience (or 4+ years with a PhD).

  • Deep understanding of Transformer architectures and hands-on experience with fine-tuning LLMs for production use cases.

  • proficiencyin Python and ML frameworks such asPyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX.

  • Demonstrated experience with Agentic frameworks such as A2A, MCP,LangGraph,LangChainorsimiliar, and an understanding of Agent-Oriented Design patterns.

  • Experience building context-aware conversational systems, integrating multi-source data for reasoning and response generation.

  • Knowledge of LLM and agentic evaluation methodologies, including prompt testing, offline metrics, and human feedback loops.

  • Familiarity withMLOps/LLMOpspractices — model deployment, monitoring, and continuous retraining at scale.

  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate across engineering, research, and product teams.
