Lime is the largest global shared micromobility business, operating in close to 30 countries across five continents. We’re on a mission to build a future where transportation is shared, affordable and carbon-free. Our electric bikes and scooters have powered more than one billion rides in cities around the world. Named a 2025 Time 100 Most Influential Company, Lime continues to set the pace for shared micromobility globally, spurring a new generation of clean alternatives to car ownership.

At Lime, our mission is to ensure a scooter or bike is ready for you at the right place and the right time. Achieving this requires solving one of the most complex optimization problems in mobility: how to deploy and continually rebalance vehicles across a dynamic, ever-changing city. The Machine Learning team is central to this mission, building demand forecasts, recommending deployment strategies, and creating models that directly influence millions of rides worldwide.

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you’ll help design, build, and scale the ML systems that power these decisions. You’ll work closely with data scientists, backend engineers, and operations teams to turn data-driven insights into production-ready models that improve our rider experience every day.

What You’ll Do:

  • Develop, test, and deploy ML models and optimization services that improve Lime’s demand forecasting and vehicle positioning capabilities.

  • Collaborate with data scientists to productionize research models and ensure scalability, reliability, and performance.

  • Build and maintain data pipelines and feature engineering workflows that feed Lime’s ML systems.

  • Contribute to the design and implementation of new ML-driven features, working with product and operations partners to deliver measurable business value.

  • Monitor and iterate on deployed models to maintain accuracy and adapt to real-world changes.

  • Participate in technical discussions, share learnings, and contribute to improving ML engineering best practices across the team.

About You:

  • 1–3 years of professional experience in software engineering or applied ML, with a record of delivering production-quality systems.

  • Proficiency in Python and experience with modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow) and data tools (SQL, Pandas, Spark, Airflow).

  • Experience training and evaluating models on real-world data, including managing model performance over time.

  • Solid understanding of ML system fundamentals such as data preprocessing, feature extraction, and model monitoring.

  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work effectively in a cross-functional environment.

Preferred Experience:

  • Experience with time-series or forecasting models.

  • Familiarity with optimization or operations research concepts, especially for logistics or resource allocation problems.

  • Knowledge of A/B testing, causal inference, or other experimentation techniques.

  • Exposure to geospatial or spatiotemporal data in applied ML contexts.

  • Proficiency in MLOps, such as shadow models, feature/model stores, and versioning.
