    Description

    About the Role

    We're building the next generation of agentic AI systems, intelligent, autonomous agents that reason, act, and continuously improve. As a Machine Learning Engineer, you won't just build models, you'll architect the entire ecosystem where our AI agents live, learn, and operate.

    This is a high-impact role for a product-minded, systems-level thinker who thrives in ambiguity and wants to shape foundational AI infrastructure from the ground up.

    You'll work at the intersection of LLMs, distributed systems, and real-world applications, owning everything from core ML architecture to customer-facing experiences.

    What You'll Do

    • Architect & Build Agentic Systems
      • Design and develop our core agentic AI platform, enabling autonomous reasoning, decision-making, and continuous learning
      • Implement multi-agent orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangGraph)
    • Own the ML & Data Infrastructure
      • Architect a modern lakehouse-based data platform
      • Build scalable data pipelines, feature stores, and real-time ML serving systems
    • Develop LLM-Powered Applications
      • Build and optimize RAG systems, prompt pipelines, and reasoning workflows
      • Develop customer-facing applications, including a seamless AI chat interface
    • Build Tool Machines for Agents
      • Create reliable, safe, and extensible tools that allow agents to interact with external systems, APIs, and data sources
    • Drive MLOps & Model Lifecycle
      • Partner with data scientists to design infrastructure for training, fine-tuning, evaluation, and deployment
      • Implement robust experimentation, monitoring, and feedback loops
    • Ship Production-Grade Systems
      • Write high-quality, scalable Python code
      • Ensure reliability, observability, and performance across distributed systems

    What We're Looking For

    Core Requirements

    • 3–8 years of experience in Machine Learning Engineering or Software Engineering (ML-focused)
    • Strong production experience with Python
    • Hands-on experience with:
      • ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
      • LLMs, agentic frameworks (e.g., LangGraph), or RAG systems
    • Experience designing scalable ML systems (training + serving)

    Preferred Background

    • Experience at top-tier tech companies (e.g., Meta, Google, Reddit, Pinterest)
    • Combined experience across Big Tech + high-growth startup environments
    • Background in ads, search, recommendation systems, or large-scale ML platforms
    • Prior experience at a venture-backed startup

    Nice to Have

    • MLOps and infrastructure experience:
      • Kubernetes, MLflow, model serving systems
    • Data engineering experience:
      • Spark, Airflow, dbt, ETL/streaming pipelines
    • Experience designing systems using lakehouse architectures

    Education

    • Master's or PhD in Computer Science (or related field), OR
    • Bachelor's degree + strong professional experience in software/ML engineering

    Tech Stack

    • Languages & Frameworks: Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow
    • AI/LLM: LangGraph, RAG architectures
    • Infrastructure: Kubernetes, MLflow
    • Data: Spark, Airflow, dbt, lakehouse architecture

    Who You Are

    • Product-minded: You think about user experience, not just models
    • Systems thinker: You design for scale, reliability, and extensibility
    • Builder: You ship fast, iterate quickly, and thrive in ambiguity
    • Impact-driven: You want to own and shape foundational technology

    What Success Looks Like

    • You've built scalable systems powering autonomous AI agents in production
    • You've improved model performance and reliability through robust infrastructure and feedback loops
    • You've delivered end-to-end ML products used by real customers

    Why Join Us

    • Build cutting-edge agentic AI systems from the ground up
    • Own foundational architecture across the entire AI stack
    • Work alongside a team operating at the intersection of LLMs, infrastructure, and product
    • Massive opportunity for ownership, impact, and growth
