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.
