AI/ML Engineer

About Stack AI

• Vision: Democratize access to Large Language Models, so that anyone can build AI-powered applications that generate positive impact to the world.
• Product: A user-friendly and intuitive No-Code platform integrating best AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, open source), most common data sources (OneDrive, Google Drive, Airtable, Notion) and SaaS (Zapier, HubSpot, etc.). We do the heavy-lifting for you, so you can focus on the product and business.
• Traction: Launched 8 months ago; over 35,000 users and 300+ paying customers (including public companies and unicorns!).
• Team: Founded by two MIT PhDs, backed by major investors such as Y Combinator and Gradient Ventures, we are now a four-engineer team.
• Values: Default to action, radical transparency, boldness, and strong opinions loosely-held.
  
  

Responsibilities

We need 10X engineers to make this happen! True wizards that can deliver on a daily basis in the high-paced environment.
