SEEKING WORK | Bengaluru, India (UTC+5:30) | Remote only | Contract / fractional, ~20 hrs/week Senior ML engineer, 10 years. The last 6 owning the entire model layer of a mobile DSP - win-rate prediction, pCTR/pCVR, install prediction, predictive audiences, bid pricing. Models served in-process inside a live bidder under a ~200 microsecond latency ceiling, across ~1B daily bid requests for ~200 advertisers.

Things I shipped there:

- Replaced a parametric win-rate curve-fit with a discriminative neural classifier predicting P(win | inventory features, bid price). The bidder uses it to forecast spend and halt bidding against budgets on a 10-minute refresh.

- Per-advertiser XGBoost conversion models (BigQuery ML) replacing hand-written rule segments. Top-decile audiences converted at 15-20%, AUC >0.90, scaled to 60-70 models in production. It moved the client mix - gaming went from ~5-10% to ~40-50% of the book.

- CPM cap model that inverts the win-rate curve to price for a target win rate by geo/OS/format. ~10% margin improvement.

- Calibrated bidding chain, pCTR x pCTC -> pCVR with isotonic regression, because direct bid pricing only works if the probabilities are honest.

- Install prediction for iOS Limit Ad Tracking users - modelling conversion with no persistent identifier.

- Earlier: backend services and big-data pipelines at 4TB/day (Hadoop, Hive, Spark).

Technologies: Python, SQL, TensorFlow, XGBoost, BigQuery/BQML, Vertex AI, GCP, Spark, Hive, Hadoop, scikit-learn, Keras.

Good fit for: ranking and recsys, CTR/CVR, auction or marketplace pricing, experimentation design where clean randomisation isn't possible, and getting a model out of a notebook into production under a real latency budget.

I'm building my own market-data platform right now (~8,300 Indian equities, point-in-time correct, running unattended on GCP), so this is deliberate part-time capacity.

Backend/infra engineer, was employee ~10 at a startup that grew to 500, want to do it again

I joined a startup when it was about 10 people and stayed through the growth to roughly 500. Most of that time I was on backend and infra.

Right now I'm at a large enterprise. I've learned a lot about systems that have to survive years and many owners, but I miss being able to ship something on a Tuesday because it needed to exist.

Stuff I've built: backend services and the infra, scraping and automation pipelines, AI-driven outreach and data enrichment.

Looking for seed to Series A, small team, close to the founders.
