We're looking for talented engineers to join our team and execute on an ambitious roadmap. IMPACT We're powering mission-critical data processing at companies where if we get things wrong, there are real world impacts (e.g. missed payments, people can't move into homes on time). Here's a few of the complex technical problems we're working on: - How do we build the most accurate document ingestion system? - How do we enable enterprises to deploy LLM-powered document processing into production with confidence? - How do we handle never before seen edge cases in customer data? - How do we build a self-correcting system that automatically gets better over time? - How do we enable non-technical domain experts to improve models with their expertise & business logic? - How do we help customers make tradeoffs between latency, cost, and performance? - How do we build reliable systems that can process large data streams in real-time? ROLE - Build, and maintain, durable, scalable systems capable of processing 10s of millions of data points per month. - Design and implement the best human ↔ AI interfaces for designing and understanding document processing. We are building a new territory of UX that previously did not exist.
