An IT professional specialising in research, development, and design of self-running artificial intelligence (AI) systems to automate predictive models is known as a machine learning engineer (ML engineer). The AI algorithms that characterise machine learning are designed and developed by machine learning engineers and are capable of learning and producing predictions (ML).
An ML engineer generally collaborates with data scientists, administrators, data analysts, data engineers, and data architects as part of a wider data science team. Depending on the scale of the firm, they might additionally interact with groups outside of their teams, such as the IT, software development, sales, or web development teams.
