    Greylock 4.5company rating

    Associate scientist job in Fremont, CA

    Stage: Seed Team Size: < 10 We're looking for an Applied RS who can run the gamut of ML from infra to modeling and own the entire ML pipeline--taking advanced models into production. Our ideal candidate will be looking to build a co-pilot product from the ground up: helping to drive everything from key architectural decisions, applying SOTA methods, and shipping advanced production models in close collaboration with the founders. In key role, you will have real product ownership and the chance to influence not just what gets built, but how it gets built in a true 0->1 scenario. If you have 5+ years of experience in Machine Learning (infra and modeling) with 1+ years post-training LLM's and are thinking about starting your own company someday, this could be a great entry-way for you. Not only would you get real-world experience with something so early, but you'd get a chance to make a name for yourself with our investment team as well (making it much easier to get a chance to pitch us on your own idea in the future). About Greylock Greylock is a 1st-tier, early-stage venture capital firm that partners with exceptional founders at the seed and Series A stages. Our mission is to help realize rare potential - backing category-defining companies such as Figma, Anthropic, Ramp, Abnormal Security, Rubrik, Airbnb, LinkedIn, Roblox, Dropbox, and Coinbase. About the Greylock Recruiting Team As full-time, salaried employees of Greylock, our team provides free candidate referrals and introductions to our active portfolio companies.
