What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Machine Learning Engineer position at Fieldguide.ai?
About Us :
Fieldguide is establishing a new state of trust for global commerce and capital markets through automating and streamlining the work of assurance and audit practitioners specifically within cybersecurity, privacy, and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance). Put simply, we build software for the people who enable trust between businesses.
We're based in San Francisco, CA, but built as a remote-first company that enables you to do your best work from anywhere. We're backed by top investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, Y Combinator, Floodgate, Elad Gil, Justin Kan, Qasar Younis, Eric Ries, and more.
We value diversity - in backgrounds and in experiences. We need people from all backgrounds and walks of life to help build the future of audit and advisory. Fieldguide's team is inclusive, driven, humble and supportive. We are deliberate and self-reflective about the kind of team and culture that we are building, seeking teammates that are not only strong in their own aptitudes but care deeply about supporting each other's growth.
As an early stage start-up employee, you'll have the opportunity to build out the future of business trust. We make audit practitioners' lives easier by eliminating up to 50% of their work and giving them better work-life balance. If you share our values and enthusiasm for building a great culture and product, you will find a home at Fieldguide.
About the Role :
As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Fieldguide, you'll play a crucial role in developing and implementing ML-driven features that enhance our platform's capabilities in the audit and advisory industry. You'll focus on building first generation ML applications, particularly in the areas of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and generative AI, while contributing to the growth of our rapidly scaling Series B-stage company. This role requires a balance of practical application skills and the ability to conduct necessary research to solve complex problems.
This is an opportunity to join as an early engineer at a company with product-market fit that still has huge amounts of room to grow. We're competing with legacy accounting and audit products that are 20 years old and have negative NPS, yet do billions in sales and have seen little competition in a decade.
What You'll Do :
- Collaborate with stakeholders to identify and map business problems to ML solutions
- Design, develop, and implement ML models with a focus on NLP and generative AI applications
- Curate, clean, and prepare data for model development and training
- Create and maintain ETL jobs for data processing
- Conduct rapid prototyping of ML solutions to quickly iterate on ideas
- Stay current with the latest advancements in ML, particularly in NLP and generative AI
- Collaborate with the platform engineering team to integrate ML solutions into the overall product architecture
- Implement data flywheels to continuously improve ML features through increased usage
- Define and implement ML performance metrics
- Contribute to the product roadmap with ML-driven feature ideas
- Be an essential technical contributor at a Series B-stage company as it scales
