TL;DR · Applied Scientist AI/ML

The Applied Scientist AI/ML joins a small, nimble team to push the boundaries of applied machine learning and artificial intelligence. This role focuses on improving home valuation systems by ensuring accurate and transparent pricing through the development of interpretable models. You will design and deploy architectural improvements to deep neural network-based models, incorporating unstructured data like images, videos, and text into forecasting pipelines. Key responsibilities include enhancing feature engineering, improving model training pipelines, and rethinking risk and optimization models. You will utilize Python, deep learning architectures such as ConvNets and Transformers, and potentially Pyspark for distributed data processing. The work involves solving complex problems in multi-modal modeling and operational optimization, specifically leveraging large language models and vision-language models to process housing data for better customer decisions.
