Job description

About the Role

As the first senior AI hire at an early-stage AI company, you will own the quality and intelligence of multi-channel marketing agents. You will shape the agent architecture, evaluation systems, and learning loops that help the product deliver reliable results.

What You'll Do

  • Improve agent outputs and content quality across social channels and article writing, and build evaluations that make quality measurable.

  • Improve search engine optimization and generative engine optimization performance.

  • Build feedback loops that help agents learn from real-world results and performance signals.

  • Improve AI infrastructure, agent architecture, model strategy, and supporting data pipelines.

  • Help hire and lead the AI team as it grows.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of experience building production machine learning or AI systems, including recent hands-on work shipping LLM products or agents.

  • Experience designing evaluation systems and using outcome signals at scale in search, ranking, recommendations, or related domains.

  • Proficiency in TypeScript, including Next.js, and Python for data analysis, evaluations, and model work, with the ability to ship end to end.

  • Production experience with applied AI, such as LLM reasoning, post-training, generative AI, agentic systems, search, recommendation systems, algorithms, or machine learning research.

  • Experience building feedback loops and improving production AI infrastructure, agent architecture, or model strategy.

  • Ownership experience in a startup or small team, plus experience with search, ranking, or AI answer engines, particularly Google.

  • Experience at a leading AI lab or comparable evidence of technical achievement is valued. Marketing or go-to-market experience, recommendation systems, algorithms, and reinforcement learning are relevant strengths.

Target annual compensation is $180,000 to $230,000 USD. Visa sponsorship is available.
