ML Engineer
“I want to build machine learning models and put them into real products”
From your first scikit-learn model to a deployed, monitored service and a working LLM feature. For people who can code a little and want the engineering side of machine learning.

Ticks and scores are saved in this browser only. No account.
- 01What ML engineers actually doYou can explain the job, how it differs from data science, and what you will spend your days on.5 min
- 02Python and the core librariesYou can set up a free notebook, load a dataset with pandas and train a first model with scikit-learn.8 min
- 03The ML workflow, end to endYou can walk a problem from a vague question to a trained model, and say where each step can go wrong.6 min
- 04Evaluation done rightYou can split data properly, spot leakage, and pick a metric that matches the real cost of mistakes.6 min
- 05Classic models that still winYou know when to reach for linear models, decision trees and gradient boosting, and why they beat deep learning on most tables.8 min
- 06Shipping and monitoring modelsYou can wrap a model in an API, package it, and know what to monitor once real users depend on it.9 min
- 07Working with LLMsYou can build a small feature on a language model API, ground it with retrieval, and measure whether it works.8 min
- 08Responsible ML and your portfolio projectYou can check a model for bias and privacy risks, and you have a plan for one project that shows you can do the job.6 min
