An AI-powered CAD software. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
About Us: We are Hestus, and we build AI-powered CAD to speed up the hardware development process. Our team is small, scrappy, and growing fast. We are looking for a versatile and enthusiastic Machine Learning Engineer to join us. If you enjoy wearing multiple hats and are passionate about technology, we want to hear from you!
What they're looking for
- Proven experience as a Machine Learning Engineer, with at least 4 years in industry or equivalent academic experience (thesis-based Master’s or PhD)
- Strong proficiency in Python, write clean, efficient code with minimal handholding
- Demonstrated experience developing novel, custom machine learning models and embeddings: inventing new approaches rather than applying off-the-shelf LLM or image-processing tools
- Hands-on experience with large language models (LLMs)
- Familiarity with a deep learning framework such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX
- Ability to work in a fast-paced startup environment and manage multiple tasks simultaneously
