    Very little opportunity to actually do/apply ML. Mostly just tuning models.

      You’re just tweaking numbers usually not implementing any sort of ML algorithm. It’s well centralized and abstracted so that the difficulty/“art” of it is removed.

      Maybe that’s what you’re looking for, but I found it really boring/tedious.

    OP
    Sounds like more of maintenance(which includes tuning, add/remove features) ml work. Any room for new feature engineering eg embedding based features?
