This just reeks of mostly inexperience with a touch of arrogance.
> We looked at other companies’ equivalent roles but they weren’t exactly contextualized to Lyft’s business setting.
Ok, so what does Lyft need then?
> What are Lyft’s challenges (and can a specific role help)?
> What should the role be with respect to the organization’s goals?
> What are the desired skills, knowledge, and talents given the expectations for the role?
Umm. Isn't that what every company hiring looks to address?
> What’s left is to define the necessary ingredients for what a successful hire looks like vis-a-vis (3) in Lyft’s context:
>
> Skills acquired through practice,
> Knowledge learned through study and personal experience, and
> Talents that make each candidate unique.
Ok, I'll stop reading now since "Lyft's context" is no different from any other company let alone one looking to hire a Machine Learning Engineer/Scientist.
