More about this role
We are building Protege to solve the biggest unmet need in AI — getting access to the right training data. The process today is time intensive, incredibly expensive, and often ends in failure. The Protege platform facilitates the secure, efficient, and privacy-centric exchange of AI training data.
Solving AI’s data problem is a generational opportunity. We’re backed by world-class investors and already powering partnerships with some of the most ambitious teams in AI. The company that succeeds will be one of the largest in AI — and in tech.
We’re a lean, fast-moving, high-trust team of builders who are obsessed with velocity and impact. Our culture is built for people who thrive on ambiguity, own outcomes, and want to shape the future of data and AI.
Protege is hiring a Senior Software Engineer to own the data processing layer at ingestion — the part of the platform that takes large-scale source data and turns it into clean, structured, enriched, validated, AI-ready datasets. This is a hands-on, backend- and data-heavy role with end-to-end ownership of the pipelines that move and process data at volume.
Protege connects organizations that hold high-value data with the AI builders...
