## About the role

We're looking for a Sr. Director of Machine Learning to lead the teams building the AI services at the core of the Hims & Hers experience. This leader owns the applied side of our AI portfolio: the LLM-powered services that handle clinical intake, provider support, personalization, and operational workflows, as well as the in-house deep learning models that drive recommendations and predictions where accuracy and clinical soundness matter most. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 14+ years of experience in machine learning and software engineering, including 8+ years leading ML teams and experience managing managers or senior tech leads
- A track record of shipping ML-powered products to production at scale — not just prototypes or research — and owning them operationally over time
- Depth in understanding modern LLM application development: RAG, prompt engineering, fine-tuning and adaptation, evaluation, agent and tool-calling architectures, and the practical limits of each
- Real experience training and deploying deep learning models (recommendation, ranking, classification, or sequence models) where model quality directly affects user or business outcomes
- Strong software architecture judgment — you can reason about service boundaries, data flow, failure modes, and cost as fluently as you can about model architecture
- Experience balancing model quality against latency, cost, and operational complexity, and making those tradeoffs legible to non-technical partners
