Job description

Storytelling is, and will always be, the heart of what we do at Skydance.

Our vision is to build a thriving entertainment ecosystem where stories and worlds are imagined, brought to life and experienced. We create for every age and audience, anchored by the strength of our content and experiences and the depth of our connection with fans. We are creator-first, audience-focused, tech-forward, globally scaled.

Here, you'll work with talented teams that move fast, think boldly and collaborate with purpose to deliver results. We aim high, champion the best ideas and win together, earning the trust of our employees, creators, partners and audiences every day.

If you're energized by the opportunity to help build the next-generation global media and entertainment company powered by creativity and technology, we'd be thrilled to welcome you aboard. LET'S GO!

We are the now and the next. The power behind the people building the future. We are born from the spirit of innovation. We are created from the idea that people around the world want more, need more, deserve more. We are the home of the global digital revolution. We are CNN.
ㅤ

About the Team

With deep domain expertise, advanced technical capabilities, and a proven track record of successful collaborations, the AI Enablement & Machine Learning team at CNN is accelerating our digital transformation through strategic applications of machine learning and AI technologies.

The ML Platform group within ML Foundations builds and maintains the infrastructure, deployment tooling, and observability that enable CNN's Machine Learning and AI Systems teams to move from prototype to production with velocity and confidence. We support diverse model architectures - two-tower, bandits, LLM- based systems, and traditional ML - across rapid experimentation and scaled production deployment.

Our vision is that CNN's ML and AI teams operate with velocity and confidence, supported by infrastructure that handles everything from rapid experimentation to scaled production deployment across diverse model types and use cases.

Your New Role...

As a Staff Software Engineer on ML Platform, you will work across teams to design, build, and operate the infrastructure foundations that power model training, serving, experimentation, and observability for our Machine Learning and AI Systems teams.

You will partner with ML engineers, data engineers, and AI Systems engineers to understand production needs, build reliable infrastructure, and deliver tooling that accelerates the team.

Key challenges you will tackle:

Outerbounds Migration: Own end-to-end migration of CNN's ML training and orchestration workloads to Outerbounds-managed Metaflow, with zero production disruption and a clear path to self-service for ML practitioners.

Observability and Cost Attribution: Establish comprehensive observability across all ML products, AI applications, and shared infrastructure - including the monitoring, alerting, and diagnostic tooling engineers need to operate production systems reliably, and cost attribution that lets us understand and govern ML/AI spend by team, product, and use case.

Model and Application Registry:

Design and operate a unified registry and versioning system for ML models and AI applications, providing lineage, reproducibility, and a clean handoff between development and production.

Feature Resolution Framework: Evolve our existing feature resolution framework from a loosely coupled set of pipelines into a real platform - one that lets ML and AI Systems engineers configure content types and events to intercept, register feature-generation APIs, and land resolved features as durable data products in the feature store. The features this framework produces - ML- and LLM-generated alike - power everything from analytics to training to inference to user-facing rendering.

How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in Atlanta, GA. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How Atlanta compares. Among the 100 largest places in Georgia, Atlanta is #1 by population, #10 for remote work (#1 = most), #15 for college degrees (#1 = most), #73 for homeownership (#1 = highest). Its county, Fulton County, is #1 of 159 counties for average pay ($100,817).

The place in numbers

Atlanta has 505,268 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 4.6% of the population of Georgia. It covers 135 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 3,734 people per square mile. The median age is 34.2, 9% younger than the state median (34.2 against 37.6).

Housing

The median gross rent is $1,711 a month (rent plus utilities), 23% above the state median ($1,711 against $1,393). Over a year that is 24.0% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $439,600, which is 5.1 times the median household income ($85,652); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 46.4% of households own their home, 29% below the state average (46.4% against 65.7%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.

Work and pay

The Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswell, GA metropolitan area has 2,889,670 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $51,170 a year, about the same as the national median ($51,170 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (328,500 jobs, median $47,040); transportation and material moving (313,910 jobs, median $44,120); sales and related (277,630 jobs, median $37,550). The area is most specialised in business and financial operations (1.3 times) and legal (1.3 times), where the share of workers is above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($130,550) and computer and mathematical ($110,010). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Fulton County was 3.6%. 68.7% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Fulton County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 52.9% drive alone, 5.7% use public transit, 3.9% walk, 29.7% work from home. 14.2% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 28% below the state average (14.2% against 19.8%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.

People and education

59.2% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 69% above the state share (59.2% against 35.0%). 9.0% of residents were born outside the United States, 19% below the state share (9.0% against 11.2%). The poverty rate is 16.9%, 27% above the state rate (16.9% against 13.4%).

Climate

The warmest month is Jul, averaging 80°F (26.5°C), and the coolest is Jan at 40°F (4.7°C). About 1,292 mm (51 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Dec is the wettest month (133 mm) and Oct the driest (88 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: North Druid Hills (7 miles, rent 10% higher); East Point (7 miles, rent 20% lower); Vinings (7 miles, rent 7% higher); Decatur (7 miles, rent 3% lower). Rent differences are against Atlanta; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
