Staff Machine Learning Engineer

About the role

As a Machine Learning Engineer on the Core AI / ML team, you will be a senior technical leader responsible for shaping, scaling, and operationalizing ML capabilities that power SailPoint's product offerings. This is a hands‑on, end‑to‑end technical leadership role. You will design and build foundational ML systems and models, influence cross‑team architecture, and set engineering standards that are adopted across multiple product lines. You will work at the intersection of modeling, ML infrastructure, and production systems, partnering closely with product, platform, and engineering leaders. You are expected to operate at organization scale: leading the most complex ML initiatives, mentoring engineers, and driving long‑term technical strategy while still contributing directly to critical designs and implementations. The AI team at SailPoint applies AI and domain expertise to create solutions that solve real problems in identity security. We believe the path to success is through meaningful customer outcomes, and we leverage classical ML, Graph ML, and recent innovations in Generative AI to bring our solutions to SailPoint's core product lines.
