Founding AI / ML Engineer (Personalisation)

Location : SF Bay Area (hybrid) or In-Person ( Preferred )

Office : 505 Howard Street

Vision

Were building the reasoning layer for customer experience, a privacy-first, explainable system that understands why each person buys, safely simulates outcomes, and orchestrates touch points in real time at near-zero marginal cost. It plugs into any stack as a vendor-agnostic brain and compounds into an autonomous orchestrator that maximises LTV and margin.

We already have distribution in motion via enterprise CX Partners, top-agency advisors (WPP, OMC), and committed angels.

What youll do

• Own the ranking / reco core : features, training, eval, online inference.
• Design cost-aware intelligence (keep the why without an LLM per event).
• Build offline generation + fast online serving / caching; handle cold-start / backfills.
• Ship with design partners; instrument and prove lift quickly.

Requirements

Nice to have

E-com / subscription, privacy-by-design, RL / bandits / causal, simulation / synthetic personas.

Comp & setup

Meaningful founding equity + salary. Part-time full-time post-raise or full-time now.
