Senior Data/AI/ML Software EngineerOur client is seeking a Senior Data/AI/ML Software Engineer to build core Machine Learning (ML)/Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems that transform raw Electronic Record data into actionable insights. You'll work on cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) in production—leveraging knowledge graphs, Large Language Models (LLMs), and advanced NLP to solve some of the hardest, most data-intensive problems. This is an early-stage, start-up where your work ships fast, gets direct feedback, and shapes the future of the product.
This is a hybrid work environment, so some on-site work in San Francisco is required on a weekly basis.What You'll Do:Build and improve information extractors and summarizers that directly power applications used by end users dailyScrape, collect, extract, transform, query, analyze, mine, and distill structured/unstructured data to evaluate system quality and performance, draw insights, and expand/refine knowledge graphsBuild and improve supporting data/AI/ML systems and automationsDevelop and deploy secure code, maintaining confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information systems and processes in compliance with applicable lawsParticipate in rotating on-call duties to ensure system uptimeRequired Qualifications:7+ years of full-time experience in AI/ML or full stack software engineering (not internships or contract work)Built and improved production ML/NLP software systems primarily handling text/unstructured dataHands-on experience scraping, collecting, extracting, transforming, querying, analyzing, mining, distilling, and summarizing structured/unstructured dataDirectly worked on improving quality/performance of systems powered by document classifiers, information extraction, cleaning/integration, summarization, retrieval, semantic search, knowledge graphs, statistical/neural machine learning methods, and LLMsComputer Science (CS) or Engineering degree (advanced degrees in relevant fields are a plus)Technical Skills:Python for data wrangling/mungingProven software engineering skillsStructured Query Language (SQL), relational data modeling, Django Object-Relational Mapping (ORM)Data/ML engineering skillsBackground knowledge in AI/ML/NLP/Information Extraction (IE)/Information Retrieval (IR) (information extraction/retrieval, semantic search, knowledge graphs, data integration, statistical/neural learning, LLMs, generative AI)Tech Stack:PyTorchGoogle Cloud PlatformNLP techniques and toolsDjango ORMSQL databasesDesired Qualities:Self-driven and hungry to quickly deliver good results for lasting impactAdaptive in a startup environment, responsive and proactive to dynamic prioritiesBrave and willing to crack ambiguity and bring clarifying resultsExcited by direct customer impactFamiliarity with highly regulated domains are a plusLocation: Hybrid - Bay Area Compensation: $140K - $290K
