About the role

  • Design and deploy end-to-end machine learning systems including NLP models, search and recommendation algorithms, and LLM-based applications.
  • Build ML systems that analyze AI search behavior, identify content opportunities, and predict performance across different AI-driven platforms. Create algorithms that help brands understand and optimize for how AI agents discover and rank content.
  • Collaborate with product managers to translate business requirements into technical solutions.

Requirements

  • 5+ years building production machine learning systems with demonstrated business impact; strong background in NLP and search/recommendation systems required
  • Deep expertise across ML approaches: classical models (XGBoost, random forests), modern deep learning architectures (transformers, graph neural networks), and reinforcement learning systems
  • Proven ability to take models from research to production, including optimization for latency and cost at scale
  • Experience with ML infrastructure and tooling: model serving frameworks, experiment tracking, feature stores, and monitoring systems
  • Track record of technical leadership: influencing architecture decisions, improving team practices, and driving cross-functional projects without direct authority
  • Excellent communication skills with ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and align ML initiatives with business outcomes

Benefits

  • Equity in a fast-growing startup
  • Competitive benefits package tailored to your location
  • Flexible time off policy
