More about this role
We are hiring a Founding ML Researcher in San Francisco.
We are building a small, talent-dense team. This role will define the engineering archetype at Unsiloed AI and set the ceiling for the team. We strongly believe technical DNA compounds (or degrades) with every hire and hence the first few matter disproportionately. You will be expected to operate proactively, take full ownership, and independently drive systems from idea to production.
As a Founding ML Researcher, you will shape the company’s ML research direction and translate research into production-ready document AI models.
- Own the end-to-end ML lifecycle: research → experimentation → training → evaluation → production deployment
- Work with engineering team to transition research into deployed, scalable systems
- Drive best practices for data, experimentation, evaluation, and model iteration.
This role is research-heavy but product-oriented. You should be comfortable moving between theory, experimentation, and real-world deployment.
