Original job description

At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.

With over half a billion rides and counting, Lyft is solving hard problems at scale, leveraging Machine Learning to better serve our customers. The Machine Learning Platform (MLP) team is seeking a backend Software Engineer to help build and operate our platform, which supports real-time, online, and offline ML model execution, development, and iteration across Lyft. In this role, you will own well-defined tasks and contribute to features alongside a team of highly motivated Machine Learning and Software Engineers, learning from senior engineers while shipping production code that impacts systems across the entire business.

If you are interested in hands-on exposure to classical machine learning models and production ML systems at scale, with applications across each facet of the marketplace and business, we are searching for you.

If you are a creative and critical thinker with an interest in machine learning systems, eager to learn and grow as an engineer, and passionate about solving business problems using data in a dynamic, creative, and collaborative environment, we are searching for you.

Contribute to technical debt reduction and technology modernization efforts
Write documentation for the code and tasks you work on, including runbooks where needed, and help improve onboarding materials
Participate in postmortems and planning discussions, providing input and feedback
Collaborate with cross-functional partners, including the Machine Learning Engineers and Data Scientists who build on the platform
Build your understanding of the ML platform and the tradeoffs behind its design by working closely with senior team members
Utilize AI tooling to accelerate development workflows.

Experience:

BSc/MSc in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or relevant work experience
1+ years of backend engineering experience (internships included) working in any of these stacks: Python, Go, Java, etc.
Experience with Linux
Nice to Have: Exposure to machine learning systems or ML serving/training/deployment infrastructure through coursework, projects, or work experience; familiarity with cloud providers (e.g. AWS, Azure, Google Cloud)
Nice to Have: Experience with AI assisted coding such as Cursor or Claude Code

Benefits:

Extended health and dental coverage options, along with life insurance and disability benefits
Mental health benefits
Family building benefits
Child care and pet benefits
Access to a Lyft funded Health Care Savings Account
RRSP plan with company match to help save for your future
In addition to provincial observed holidays, salaried team members are covered under Lyft's flexible paid time off policy. The policy allows team members to take off as much time as they need (with manager approval). Hourly team members get 15 days paid time off, with an additional day for each year of service
Lyft is proud to support new parents with 18 weeks of paid time off, designed as a top-up plan to complement provincial programs. Biological, adoptive, and foster parents are all eligible.
