    • Collaborate closely with applied scientists, engineering, design and research to understand, scope, design, prototype, implement and iterate on internal and external facing systems supporting and implementing next generation AI applications.
    • Cultivate connections with other teams for critical dependencies and infrastructure.
    • Contribute to carrying and growing our team culture of rapid innovation and creative frugality.

    In California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Nevada, New York and Washington the standard base pay range for this role is $156, $249,700.00 Annually. This base pay range is specific to California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Nevada, New York and Washington and may not be applicable to other locations.

    In addition to a competitive base salary this position is also eligible for equity awards based on factors such as experience, performance and location. Actual amounts will vary depending on experience, performance and location.

    Who you are

    • Proficiency with a high-level programming language (we most commonly use Python and PySpark)
    • Practical knowledge of statistics (for example, causal inference, Frequentist or Bayesian inference)
    • The communication skills to influence, collaborate with, and educate others (whom you may need to educate on methods and requirements in experimentation and statistics).
    • Experience prototyping, developing, and implementing algorithmic solutions and new technologies with diverse analytics and data.
    • The tenacity to embrace and tackle challenging problems.
    • Practiced technical ability and passion for both owning implementation and contributing technical/thought leadership for a team of world-class scientists engineers.
    • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, or a related field.

    Bonus Qualifications:

    • Experience with generative AI or large language models and related technologies (knowledge retrieval solutions, for example).
    • Experience with regulated, private or sensitive data, document understanding, user interest modeling, or reinforcement learning.
    • Experience collaborating with science, engineering, design, research and product partners in a team with a startup culture.
    • Ph.D. or equivalent experience in Computer Science or Engineering, Machine Learning, or related field.
