Hire to hire a machine learning engineer

What is machine learning?

Machine learning involves “teaching” a computer to interpret patterns in data with minimal human intervention. It’s a subset of data science and artificial intelligence.

One reason machine learning is so popular is that it has made it easy for companies to automate tasks and improve their workflows.

What does a machine learning engineer do?

Machine learning engineers use data mining and computational statistics to facilitate the “teaching a computer” process.

These developers are unique. They build artificial intelligence (AI) systems to learn from data sets, develop algorithms, and make predictions based on data. To do these things, machine learning engineers assess and organize data, screen and optimize processes, and conduct tests and experiments. These are all necessary steps for designing machine learning systems.

Essentially, machine learning engineers make software that’s capable of reading data, teaching it to decide which data is the most important, and even pulling the data from other sources.

Machine learning experts are employed in many industries, including banking, healthcare, and research.

FAQs

How much does it cost to hire machine learning developers with Gun.io?

We get a lot of questions about how to hire machine learning developers and how much they’ll cost. The short answer is this: If you have a budget, we can design a solution to suit your needs. But planning for a future headcount is much easier when you have numbers and data. 

With this in mind, we don’t have standard prices on Gun.io. Instead, we offer flexible retainers based on your needs, the project, and the developers’ salary expectations. These retainers start at $5,000 per month. This price includes Gun.io’s fee, and you’ll see the total price upfront on developers’ profiles. There are no extra fees.

To help you move forward and hire machine learning experts, we’ve gathered data from recent hires on the Gun.io platform. These numbers represent the averages and ranges for developer costs within their respective experience and geography bands. 

This data is a great place to understand how companies you’re competing with think about their investment with each hire.

We recommend using this data as a guide. You’ll still need to consider other factors to determine the best machine learning engineers for hire.

How is Gun.io different from other ML developer hiring platforms?

We make hiring machine learning experts feel effortless, whether for full-time or part-time roles. We streamline the hiring process, from sourcing and vetting candidates to matching you with remote Perl developers.

Our clients appreciate our quick and easy hiring experience, with an average time-to-hire of 13 days. In addition, we’ve implemented a strict vetting process and have built a network of top developers. As a result, our developers have an average of 10+ years of experience.

Here’s a percentage breakdown for approved devs in our network:

  • < 7 years: 11%
  • 7-9 years: 26%
  • 10-19 years: 47%
  • 20+ years: 16%

Can I hire a machine learning engineer part-time?

Yes, you can! At Gun.io, you can hire machine learning engineers on a full-time, part-time, or contract-to-hire basis. 

Of the three, contract-to-hire is a favorite among our clients and developers. This is because contract-to-hire lets you roll the developer onto your project to see if they’re a good fit before hiring full-time.

Does Gun.io only provide hiring services, or can I get project management support for my ML project too?

Yes, you can (again!) Gun.io can help you hire machine learning developers on a full-time, part-time, or contract-to-hire basis, and provide project management support. 

We facilitate intro calls and support both parties as needed throughout the engagement. We also handle hours tracking, billing, and payments.

What can our ML developers do for you?

Our ML developers can help you with the following:

  • ML algorithm development
  • ML modeling
  • Deep learning
  • Neural network development
