Member of Technical Staff, Machine Learning (Founding Team)

Type of employment: Permanent, Full-time
Work model: Fully remote (United States or Canada)
Ideal experience: Machine Learning Engineering, Production AI, Foundation Models

Why join this opportunity?

Our client is an early-stage, well-funded AI startup building a next-generation consumer AI platform designed to help people automate everyday tasks, workflows, and errands through intelligent, real-world task execution.

This is a rare opportunity to join as a founding engineer and help shape both the product and the machine learning foundation from the very beginning. You’ll work alongside an experienced leadership team in a fast-paced, high-trust environment where ownership, curiosity, and execution are highly valued.

What you’ll do

  • Build and improve production machine learning systems across data pipelines, model training, evaluation, inference, and deployment.
  • Fine-tune and adapt machine learning models as part of scalable production systems.
  • Develop evaluation frameworks and testing processes to better understand model performance and behavior.
  • Build and maintain data pipelines supporting both synthetic and real-world training data.
  • Debug model behavior, production issues, and system performance using real-world signals.
  • Continuously improve machine learning systems through iterative development and production feedback.
  • Collaborate closely with senior machine learning engineers, researchers, and product teams to deliver reliable AI-powered features.
  • Grow your technical expertise by working on production AI systems that operate under real-world constraints such as latency, reliability, scalability, and cost.

What we’re looking for

  • Strong foundation in machine learning and modern neural network architectures.
  • Hands-on experience training, fine-tuning, or deploying machine learning models.
  • Experience with Python and modern machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch and/or JAX.
  • Strong software engineering fundamentals and the ability to write reliable, maintainable code.
  • Curiosity, strong problem-solving skills, and a willingness to learn from real production systems.
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • A builder’s mindset with a passion for continuous learning and delivering high-quality AI solutions.

Tech Stack

  • Python
  • PyTorch / JAX
  • GPU-based training and inference systems
  • Modern foundation models and LLM technologies

Why this role?

  • Founding engineer opportunity at a well-funded AI startup.
  • Help build a consumer AI product from zero to scale.
  • Work on real production AI systems from day one alongside experienced engineers and researchers.
  • Fully remote across the United States and Canada.
  • Small, high-calibre engineering team with direct access to leadership.
  • High-trust, flexible work environment.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • 401(k) with employer match (U.S.).
  • Visa sponsorship available where applicable.
  • Opportunity to grow your technical expertise while helping shape the company’s AI platform from the ground up.
