Summary
AI / Machine Learning Engineering — builds, trains, deploys, and operates machine learning models and the production pipelines that serve them. Distinct from Data Science (hypothesis-driven statistical analysis and experimentation) and Data Engineering (data platform/pipeline plumbing) in that the core deliverable is production-grade ML systems: model architecture, training/evaluation, MLOps, deployment to cloud, and scaling of inference. Spans data preprocessing and feature engineering through deep learning (transformers, generative AI), distributed systems for large-scale ML, and the technical leadership that aligns ML capability with business objectives.
