    Machining engineer job in San Francisco, CA

    Lead Machine Learning Engineer - Generative AI for the Physical World A rare opportunity has emerged for a visionary Lead Machine Learning Engineer to build the core intelligence for a stealth-mode, well-funded AI company. This foundational leadership role is for someone passionate about teaching machines to understand and engineer the physical world, moving beyond language and into the complex domain of 3D geometry and physics. Why Join? This is a chance to define a new category of software from the ground up. You will have the autonomy to set the technical vision, build a world-class team, and solve fundamental AI challenges that directly impact how next-generation products are designed and built. You will be instrumental in creating the "brain" that powers a revolutionary platform. The Company My client is a pioneering startup developing a new class of generative AI. Their platform uses autonomous agents to design, test, and optimize complex physical systems, aiming to radically accelerate today's slow and manual engineering cycles. Backed by top-tier investors, the company is positioned to become a leader in the application of AI to advanced hardware design and manufacturing. The Role As the Lead Machine Learning Engineer, you will architect the company's entire ML strategy. You will lead the research and development of the core models that allow AI agents to perceive and reason about 3D geometry. Your primary focus will be on defining the technical roadmap, hiring and mentoring a high-performing team, and guiding the development of novel techniques in geometric deep learning and multimodal reasoning. The Essential Requirements Proven experience leading machine learning teams, setting technical direction, and mentoring senior engineers. Deep expertise in 3D perception, scene understanding, or geometric deep learning (e.g., from robotics, AV, AR/VR). A strong track record of architecting and deploying complex ML systems from research to production. Fluency with modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch) and models for geometric data (GNNs, 3D CNNs, NeRFs). Ability to translate ambiguous product goals into a concrete technical roadmap and execute effectively. What Will Make You Stand Out A PhD in a relevant field such as Computer Science or Robotics. A background in mechanical, aerospace, or a related engineering discipline. Experience integrating perception models with LLMs or other agent-based systems. A history of publications in top-tier machine learning conferences. Benefits Up to $260,000 base Meaningful equity A key leadership role with the autonomy to shape the company's technical culture and direction. The opportunity to solve high-impact problems at the intersection of AI and engineering. If you are interested in this role, please apply with your resume through this site.

    Machine Learning Engineer - Applied AI Systems San Francisco, CA - On-site $170k-$250k + equity A venture-backed AI company is expanding its engineering group and looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to help push forward a new generation of decision-support products used in complex, data-heavy environments. The team builds systems that analyse large, unstructured datasets and surface insights that help organisations make high-stakes choices more consistently. You'll join a small group of engineers and researchers working on applied ML problems that combine pattern recognition, anomaly detection, language modelling and real-time data interpretation. This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll prototype, train, evaluate and productionise models that directly shape the product experience. What you'll work on Designing and implementing ML pipelines for processing a wide variety of semi-structured inputs. Training and adapting large language models to handle classification, extraction and reasoning tasks. Developing methods to identify irregularities, inconsistencies and unusual patterns within customer-supplied data. Improving the performance, latency and reliability of deployed models at scale. Collaborating with software engineers to integrate new capabilities into customer-facing features. Exploring new approaches in multimodal modelling, retrieval-augmented generation and adaptive learning systems. Who you might be Someone with professional experience in ML engineering, data science, applied research or similar. Confident programming in Python and fluent with at least one modern deep learning toolkit. Comfortable working with messy, real-world data rather than clean academic datasets. Experience with information extraction, language models, anomaly detection or data quality modelling is valuable. Interested in joining a company where the ML team has genuine influence over product direction. Enjoys experimentation, iteration and solving problems that don't have an obvious starting point. (No strict requirement on years - strength of experience matters more than time served.) Why this is different You'll work on technically challenging problems where accuracy genuinely matters. The company is scaling quickly and investing heavily in expanding its AI group. You'll collaborate closely with product and engineering leadership, not sit in a research silo. The environment is fast-moving, with opportunities to own projects end-to-end. Generous salary, equity and benefits package. Location & Work Style On-site in San Francisco to support a highly collaborative engineering culture. Hybrid flexibility may be available for senior hires already living in the Bay Area.
