About xAI

xAI's mission is to create AI systems that can accurately understand the universe and aid humanity in its pursuit of knowledge. Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on engineering excellence. This organization is for individuals who appreciate challenging themselves and thrive on curiosity. We operate with a flat organizational structure. All employees are expected to be hands-on and to contribute directly to the company's mission. Leadership is given to those who show initiative and consistently deliver excellence. Work ethic and strong prioritization skills are important. All engineers are expected to have strong communication skills. They should be able to concisely and accurately share knowledge with their teammates.

About the Role

Enterprise engineers work directly with our end customers owning strategy and execution. Your responsibilities look similar to that of a hands-on AI startup CTO : you'll work in a small team to own delivery of high stakes projects with clients. A day's work may include :

• Deliver solutions end to end that meet the needs of our customers - understanding user pain points, scoping product specs, and designing and building LLM-powered software
• Benchmarking the model or help write evals for customers to identify model weaknesses
• Improve model performance by system prompt tuning or fine tuning models
• Analyze request logs or read through prompt data
• Build internal tooling to automate yourself out of the job
• Improving xAI SDKs or developer documentation based on customer feedback

Interview Process

If you clear the initial phone interview, you will enter the main process, which consists of four technical interviews :

Our goal is to finish the main process within one week. We don't rely on recruiters for assessments. Every application is reviewed by a member of our technical team. All interviews will be conducted via Google Meet or in-person.
