Join the team as Twilio’s next Senior Manager, Machine Learning on Twilio’s Conversation Memory team.

About the job

This position is critical to leveraging Twilio’s massive data ecosystem and communication scale to build foundational platform

capabilities for the next generation of conversational AI, specifically by owning the development of 0-to-1 platform features that

empower developers to build sophisticated, context-aware customer engagement applications. This is a highly technical, hands-on

role, requiring a "player-coach" mentality to actively contribute technical expertise, bridge the gap between theoretical research

and production-grade experimentation, and provide strategic direction to the team, rather than being purely a people manager. The

leader in this role must demonstrate a strong bias for action, establishing a high-performing engineering setup that enables rapid

iteration, experimentation, and deployment of models in this 0-to-1 setting. Furthermore, they will be responsible for working

closely with cross-functional stakeholders to translate ambiguous business problems into a clear, prioritized product roadmap and

communicate progress and updates to leadership.

Responsibilities

In this role, you’ll:

Collaborate with other engineering teams and cross functional teams to translate ambiguous business problems into a clear,

prioritized ML product roadmap for your team.

to the team.

Establish a high-performing engineering setup that enables the team to rapidly iterate, experiment, and deploy models,

fostering a culture of operational excellence and close partnership with product and business stakeholders.

Drive continuous improvement in the team's processes, tooling, and infrastructure to optimize for velocity, quality, and

maintainability.

Actively monitor the ML and AI landscape to ensure the team is continuously up-to-speed on state-of-the-art research,

techniques, and tools, promoting their strategic adoption where appropriate.

Recruit, manage, and develop a diverse and highly-skilled team of Machine Learning Engineers, setting clear goals and

expectations, and providing timely and actionable feedback.

Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the impact and success of the team’s ML products, communicating

results clearly to leadership and stakeholders.

Manage project timelines, dependencies, and risks, ensuring timely delivery of high-quality, reliable, and scalable ML

solutions.
