You Will:

  • Design and build backend services in Go on AWS to support high-scale AI/ML workloads.
  • Develop and enhance core ML systems—including Feature Store, Experimentation Platform, and Model Deployment pipelines—with a focus on performance, reliability, and usability.
  • Partner closely with data scientists, ML engineers, and software engineers across multiple domains to deliver end-to-end solutions.
  • Drive infrastructure optimization and automation, improving system scalability, reliability, and developer velocity.
  • Collaborate with product managers and cross-functional teams to align engineering initiatives with product and business goals.

You Have:

  • 5+ years of experience developing production applications, ideally in Go or Java.
  • Hands-on experience with machine learning platforms and workflows (training, inference, and deployment).
  • Proficiency with ML frameworks such as Scikit-learn, XGBoost and PyTorch.
  • Experience building batch inference pipelines and online model serving systems.
  • Practical knowledge of designing and supporting Feature Store systems.
  • Strong background in building orchestration systems for training and automating workflows.
  • Familiarity with modern CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, Maven, GitLab) and best practices.

Compensation Details. The starting base salary range for this position is $148,000-$185,000. In Canada, Remitly employees are shareholders in our Company and equity is part of our total compensation plan.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
