Job Description:
We’re the obstacle overcomers, the problem get-arounders. From figuring it out to getting it done… our innovative culture demands “yes and how!” We are UPS. We are the United Problem Solvers.
Our Machine Learning Engineering teams use their expertise in data science, software engineering, and AI to build next-generation intelligent systems. These systems power our Smart Logistics Network, optimize UPS Airlines, and enhance Global Transportation Operations. We build scalable, production-grade ML solutions that move up to 38 million packages a day (4.7 billion annually), delivering measurable impact across the enterprise.
About this Role:
We are seeking passionate Senior Machine Learning Engineers to design, develop, and deploy ML models and pipelines that drive business outcomes. You’ll work closely with data scientists, software engineers, and product teams to build intelligent systems that are robust, scalable, and aligned with UPS’s strategic goals.
You will contribute across the full ML lifecycle—from data exploration and feature engineering to model training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring. You’ll also help shape our MLOps practices and mentor junior engineers.
The Marketing ML Engineer / ML Ops Engineer is responsible for operationalizing machine learning models within the marketing technology ecosystem. This role ensures production-grade deployment, low-latency inference, reliable data refresh cycles, and fully automated model pipelines.
The position bridges Data Science and Engineering by transforming experimental models into scalable, monitored, and business-ready solutions within the Global Customer Platform.
The ML Engineer will deploy and manage:
Production-ready marketing ML models including:
Propensity to Buy (PTB)
Churn Prediction
Customer Lifetime Value (CLV)
Automated training and inference pipelines
Real-time or batch scoring workflows
Feature store infrastructure for reusable, governed features
Model monitoring and drift detection systems
CI/CD-enabled ML deployment pipelines
