Senior ML Graph Engineer

Our client is seeking a Senior ML Graph Engineer with expertise to lead technology development on the frontier of code discovery and developer productivity. A successful applicant is one capable of building software using a variety of technologies. They are polyglots and can learn and adapt to solve the problem at hand. You will help our team design, test, and rapidly iterate on multiple products and services stemming from our core technology. You will develop prototypes, tools, and methods that inform decision-making for software developers (e.g. “Is this the right solution to my coding problem?” or “How do I implement this specific code in my application?” or “What code libraries are other developers using to solve my problem?”).

About Us

The team is building an intelligent code discovery platform that gives developers the best tools to discover code in any form and be more productive. They are transforming code search to improve the practice of modern programming—taking a graph-based approach using data from the entire open source ecosystem. They’re on a mission to build the world’s best code discovery engine. The business is funded by top investors in Silicon Valley, including the first investors of Google, Twitter, Zoom, LinkedIn, and Uber. Our team has backgrounds from NASA, LinkedIn, Facebook, Amazon, AWS, Cisco and MIT, Harvard, Stanford, and Berkeley. Our company is based in San Francisco, California, but the team is all remote and globally distributed.

Description
