Senior ML Engineer - Grit
About the role
As our first machine learning hire, you will be responsible for building our foundational ML infrastructure and experimenting with novel techniques to deliver product value through deep learning. You’ll experiment with fine-tuning existing models and building custom models to solve problems like automatic type inference, code similarity analysis, and program synthesis.
This role is ideal for tinkerers and researchers who want to see their insights transformed into real products. You will have significant ownership over our product roadmap and autonomy to design experiments from scratch.
About Grit
Grit is on a mission to crush technical debt.
We believe that a big challenge in the next decade will be crumbling digital infrastructure. Our entire modern economy runs on code, but we haven’t developed appropriate tools to ensure software remains reliable over time.
Companies know that technical debt threatens the reliability of their services and slows down the pace of innovation, but struggle to find enough engineering talent to fix issues—most software maintenance today is still done manually and delayed as long as possible.
We believe there is a better way: we’re building AI bots that automatically maintain software through a combination of static analysis, our own query language, and machine learning.
Founders Fund and Abstract Ventures led our $7M seed round and we have many paying customers on our beta product.
