ABOUT STITCH FIX

At Stitch Fix, we’re about personal styling for everybody, and we believe in both a service and a workplace where you can be your best, most authentic self. We’re the first fashion retailer to combine technology and data science with the human instinct of a Stylist to deliver a deeply personalized shopping experience. This novel juxtaposition attracts a highly diverse group of talented people who are both thinkers and doers. All of this results in a simple, powerful offering to our customers and a successful, growing business serving millions of men, women, and kids. We believe we are only scratching the surface on our opportunity, and we’re looking for incredible people like you to help us carry on that trend.

ABOUT THE TEAM

The Algo & Experimentation Frameworks team is a multi talented group of engineers and data scientists responsible for foundational frameworks and platforms underpinning algorithmic products and experimentation at Stitch Fix.

To name a few areas where we effect change, we design, build, and maintain the platforms and frameworks which enable:

  • Experimentation at scale
  • Rapid development, orchestration and deployment of ML models for algo products
  • Streaming feature calculations for use in models and recommender systems

As a member of the team, you will contribute to the evolution of our platforms and help increase innovation velocity at Stitch Fix.

We believe that diverse teams are better than the sum of their parts. We encourage people from all identities, backgrounds, and experiences to apply!

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for an experienced Platform Engineer preferably with a background in statistics, experimentation and/or machine learning to help us design and implement world class frameworks and platforms underpinning experimentation and algorithmic products at Stitch Fix.

You’ll build robust pipelines that take advantage of Postgres, DynamoDB, Redis, Kafka, S3 and scalability features of AWS. This role is highly cross functional and you will enjoy getting to know our partners across all areas of the business.

As a team, we work together to prioritize features and directions, but you will have responsibility for deliverables and you will be largely self-directed in determining what you work on. This is not a role where your day-to-day is determined by a PM or a ticket – success on the team includes defining problems, brainstorming ideas, implementing solutions and owning the process end to end.

  • Strong programming background; expertise in Python and/or Go required.
  • Experience working with experimentation and/or applied machine learning.

  • Share the responsibility of directing the team’s investment in impactful directions.
  • Contribute to a culture of technical collaboration and scalable, resilient systems.
  • Work with bright and kind colleagues who are passionate about their craft.

WE GET EXCITED ABOUT CANDIDATES WHO HAVE…

  • Experience working autonomously and taking ownership of projects.
  • A rigorous focus on simple solutions that yield business impact.
  • Strong experience building out scalable, distributed, and production systems.
  • The ability to effectively communicate with technical and non-technical business partners alike, and who are interested in building strong cross-functional relationships.
  • A desire to question the status quo and promote innovative solutions to challenging problems.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE WORKING AT STITCH FIX:

  • We are a successful, fast-growing company at the forefront of tech and fashion, redefining retail for the next generation
