Description
We are seeking a talented and motivated software developer to join our Machine Learning Systems Evaluation Engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for building and maintaining simulation environments that allow us to evaluate our AI assistant products at scale. Your primary focus will be on developing tools and frameworks to simulate user interactions and personal context, enabling us to test and refine our AI models and product integration in realistic scenarios. This position is ideal for developers who are passionate about quality, enjoy creating scalable simulation systems, and are eager to contribute to the success of cutting-edge AI products. While this role involves aspects of testing, it is not a traditional SDET position; instead, it emphasizes software development with a focus on creating robust simulation environments that push the boundaries of AI performance and reliability. If you have a strong background in software development and a keen interest in simulation and quality, we would love to hear from you.
