Senior AI/ML Engineer
About the team
We're an 18-person team building the AI agents that run dispatch operations for real fleets. You'd be working directly on Relay and Lens — the two systems at the core of everything we ship.
What you'll do
Build and improve Relay, our dispatch AI — rate negotiation, broker communication, load scoring
Develop AI agents, our fleet intelligence layer — anomaly detection, document verification, predictive alerts
Design and own the prompt architecture, fine-tuning pipelines, and model evaluation frameworks
Work across the full ML stack — from data collection and labeling to deployment and monitoring
Collaborate directly with product and engineering to ship AI features weekly, not quarterly
Who you are
4–8 years of ML/AI engineering experience, with at least 2 years working with LLMs in production
Strong grasp of prompt engineering, RAG architectures, fine-tuning, and agent frameworks
Comfortable owning a model end-to-end — training data, eval metrics, deployment, and iteration
Experience shipping AI features in a fast-moving startup, not just research or internal tools
Python-first, with solid engineering fundamentals — you write clean, production-grade code
Pay & Benefits
$140,000 – $185,000 USD salary
1%–2% equity, 4-year vest with 1-year cliff
Full health, dental, and vision — 100% of premiums covered
$2,000/year learning budget and $1,500 home office allowance
Twice-yearly team offsites and flexible hours
The interview proces
Step 1: Application review — We respond to every applicant within 48 hours.
Step 2: Intro call — 30 minutes — Chat with a founder or our head of engineering. We talk about your background, what you've shipped, and what we're building. No trick questions.
Step 3: Technical deep-dive — 60 minutes — A real conversation about AI systems design. We'll walk through how you'd architect something like Relay. No whiteboard puzzles, no LeetCode.
Step 4: Paid take-home task — 3–4 hours ($150) — A focused brief based on a real problem we've faced. Prompt design, eval framework, or agent architecture — shared in advance, no surprises.
Step 5: Final conversation + offer — Meet 1–2 more team members. If it's a yes, you'll have an offer within 24 hours of your final interview.
Why join us
Your work ships to real operators. Not an internal dashboard, not a demo — real dispatchers managing real fleets, using the models you build every single day.
You'd have full ownership. No AI research team above you, no model committee to approve your decisions. You own the architecture, the eval strategy, and the direction.
The timing is right. We have paying customers, seed funding, and a clear path to Series A. You're joining early enough to shape everything, late enough that the foundation is real.
