What this job asks for AI summary
A senior individual-contributor ML engineering role at Indeed focused on building and deploying large-scale machine learning models that power job-search relevance and matching. The engineer will own a major technical workstream, drive team direction, run A/B experiments, and mentor other engineers — with an expectation of representing the company at top ML research conferences such as NeurIPS, ICML, and ICLR.

How this req sits in the market our data
Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.
What the occupation pays Median $122,874 (middle half $87,544–$162,374). This posting is about at that midpoint.
Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Aug 1, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (6)
The compensation range spans five geographic pay tiers ($163K–$245K at Tier 1 up to $227K–$341K at Tier 5); the figures reported here reflect the full floor-to-ceiling spread across all US tiers. Tier 4 is listed as N/A.
The degree requirement is a minimum Bachelor's in CS, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field; however, the posting also explicitly welcomes equivalent expertise through work experience, training, or military experience, which would normally indicate no hard degree gate. The Bachelor's is listed as the baseline in the formal qualifications block, so it is treated as the stated minimum.
Total years minimum is 8, reflecting the Bachelor's + 8 years path (the most permissive stated combination; Master's + 6 and PhD + 3 are also listed).
The role is titled 'Machine Learning Engineer III' — 'III' maps to Senior in the advertised seniority. The scope (owning a workstream, mentoring, driving technical direction) is consistent with Senior rather than Staff, as there is no clear indication of cross-org authority.
PyTorch (Torch) is listed as the primary example of a deep learning library, with TensorFlow as an alternative; both are named in the posting under the same requirement.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Data Structures and Algorithms.
