Founding ML Scientist
Research and development technician 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.
