Job 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
