Staff Machine Learning Engineer: our view in 3 lines...

  • The Role:This role is for an experienced machine learning engineer who sets the technical direction for AI agent systems built for large enterprise customers.
  • The Person:The person will design multi-step LLM systems covering reasoning, retrieval, planning and tool use, own evaluation from offline benchmarks to online experiments, find and fix failure modes, set quality, latency and cost targets, and mentor senior engineers.
  • Requirements:The ideal candidate has 7+ years shipping ML in production, including LLMs at scale, depth in transformers, embeddings and retrieval, evaluation experience beyond single prompts, and PyTorch or similar on distributed cloud infrastructure.

About the role

Location: Remote (US)

Pay: $230,000–$300,000 + bonus + equity

A late-stage, venture-backed enterprise AI company is hiring a Staff ML Engineer to set the technical direction for its agent systems. This is model and systems work that ships to large enterprise customers, not a thin layer over someone else's API.

What you'll do

  • Design multi-step LLM systems: reasoning, retrieval, planning and tool use

  • Own evaluation, from offline benchmarks to online experiments and model-graded review

  • Find and fix failure modes such as hallucination and tool misuse

  • Set the quality, latency and cost targets the team builds against

  • Mentor senior engineers and shape how the group works

What you bring

  • 7+ years shipping ML in production, including LLMs at scale

  • Led the design of complex, multi-step LLM systems

  • Depth in transformers, embeddings and retrieval

  • Evaluation experience beyond single prompts

  • PyTorch or similar, on distributed cloud infrastructure

  • BS in CS or a related field; MS or PhD a plus

Nice to have: ML shipped before LLMs, then moved into generative AI; detailed retrieval work (chunking, reranking, evals)
