Why would you want to? There's a huge glut of ML engineers.

I was under the impression that ML engineering jobs paid more than the typical software engineering role. Is that not true any more?

[ProjectArcturis → vishalontheline]

ML skews more senior, so the average is probably higher, but matching seniority there isn't much premium at all.

It’s like “Rust developer” or “SRE”: a heavy skew towards seniority.
