ML Platform Lead

Join Impress – Europe’s Leading Health-Tech Innovator!

We believe everyone deserves a smile they’ll love . As the largest Ortho clinic chain in Europe, we combine cutting-edge tech with expert care, revolutionizing invisible orthodontics since 2019.

With 150+ clinics across 10 countries and rapid growth, we’re improving lives worldwide.

We are looking for an ML Platform Lead to join our Onsite Team in Barcelona.

Why we’re cool:

• Work with an international and multicultural team

• Competitive salary

• Teeth aligner and whitening benefits

• Collaborative work environment and positive culture

• Opportunities to grow within a fast-paced, innovative company and real start-up experience with big challenges

• Fresh fruits and healthy snacks at the office

What You'll Do:

• Own the ML Platform : Design, build and maintain ML serving and deployment infrastructure across AWS and GCP.

• Manage Cloud Infrastructure: Multi-environment setup (dev, prelive, live) using Terraform and Terragrunt.

• Run ML on Kubernetes: Deployments, health checks, secrets management and observability.

• Optimize GPU Inference: Profiling, batching, model conversion (ONNX/TorchScript), Triton Server.

• Drive Cost Efficiency : Right-size compute, build scale-to-zero GPU strategies, own monthly infra spend and cost-per-inference metrics.

• Lead the Team: Define ownership areas, grow engineers technically, set platform direction.

• Bridge ML & Product: Work with researchers, PMs and clinical teams to take models from prototype to production.

What We Are Looking For:

• 6+ years of experience in ML engineering, MLOps, or ML platform roles with production responsibility;

• Strong hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure — AWS (Lambda, Batch, Step Functions, S3, EC2, ECS/EKS, DynamoDB, RDS) and/or GCP (Cloud Run, Artifact Registry);

• Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code — Terraform and/or Terragrunt for managing multi-environment cloud deployments;

• Experience deploying and operating ML inference services in production (Triton Server, TorchServe, FastAPI, or equivalent);

• Experience with Docker — multi-stage builds, image optimization, container registries;

• Strong understanding of GPU compute for ML workloads — instance selection, cost optimization, inference profiling;

• Demonstrated ability to deliver end-to-end ML services from infrastructure provisioning toproduction deployment;

• Experience with event-driven architectures — SNS, SQS, webhooks, or equivalent message-passing systems;

• Track record of quantifiable business impact — cost reductions, automation rates, throughput improvements;

• Ability to lead and develop a small engineering team.

Will be a plus:

• Experience training deep learning models (PyTorch, segmentation models, computer vision);

• Familiarity with model optimization techniques — ONNX/TorchScript conversion, quantization, batching strategies;

• Experience with ArgoCD or other GitOps tooling for Kubernetes;

• Background in healthcare, dental-tech, or other regulated / precision-critical domains;

• Experience with Terragrunt for managing multi-account, multi-environment Terraform at scale;

• Hands-on use of AI coding tools (Cursor, Copilot, ChatGPT) to accelerate infrastructure and ML development.
