About this role
We’re building the next generation of AI evaluation systems - and we’re looking for a
motivated early-career engineer who’s excited to work at the intersection of ML,
software, and product. You’ll join a team focused on making AI systems - including
LLMs and agentic AI - more measurable, testable, and trustworthy in real-world
scenarios.
This is a hands-on, collaborative role ideal for someone with a strong foundation in
software engineering and machine learning, and an eagerness to grow by building tools
and systems that help evaluate advanced AI behavior at scale.
Description
As an Applied ML Engineer on our team, you’ll help develop simulation systems,
support data tooling, and contribute to evaluation workflows that improve the reliability
of modern AI. You’ll collaborate closely with experienced engineers and researchers,
learning how to instrument, monitor, and analyze model behavior - especially for
language models and agent-style systems.
This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career to work with cutting-edge AI
technologies in a high-impact, supportive environment. You’ll gain experience working
with large-scale ML systems, learn best practices in applied AI, and grow your skills
across engineering, product, and research.","responsibilities":"Contribute to systems that simulate interactive behaviors (including LLM-driven
