ABOUT THE ROLE

An early-stage AI systems company is seeking a Founding Machine Learning Engineer to build its machine learning function and shape the technical direction of post-training and agent systems. You will work closely with the founding team and help set priorities for experiments, infrastructure, and future team growth.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Structure, filter, and score experimental trajectories for training data pipelines.

- Design and implement evaluations and benchmarks for model reasoning, planning, and experimental progress.

- Build reliable agent environments, tool interfaces, observability systems, and replay infrastructure.

- Establish validation and provenance tracking to improve trajectory and data quality.

- Set machine learning roadmap priorities across systems, experiments, and hiring.

- Guide the technical direction of the machine learning team as it grows.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- At least 3 years of experience in machine learning engineering, building or delivering production machine learning systems.

- Production software engineering experience with Python and systems-level programming for machine learning infrastructure.

- Hands-on experience with post-training machine learning, evaluation frameworks, and training data pipelines, including structuring, filtering, and scoring data.

- Strong understanding of trajectory data, reward structures, tool use, and agent environment design.

- Experience building agent environments, reinforcement learning systems, replay tools, or trajectory debugging infrastructure is valuable.

- Ability to connect research with production, take ownership, and work effectively in an ambiguous environment.
