What are the responsibilities and job description for the Member of Technical Staff - Product Engineer position at Liquid AI?
Our goal at Liquid is to build the most capable AI systems to solve problems at every scale, such that users can build, access, and control their AI solutions. This is to ensure that AI will get meaningfully, reliably and efficiently integrated at all enterprises. Long term, Liquid will create and deploy frontier-AI-powered solutions that are available to everyone.
We've proven our technology works. The theory is realized. Now comes the harder part: turning working tech into indispensable products. This isn't about building features – it's about discovering how our core ML innovations solve real enterprise problems.
The Role: Product Engineer
We're not hiring traditional Product Managers. We're hiring engineers who can shape products because they understand both the technical possibilities and customer realities. Our belief is simple: the best product decisions come from those who can both envision the solution and build it.
The Core Question
"Can you take validated ML technology and turn it into must-have products for enterprises – while being hands-on enough to evolve the technical implementation as you learn?" If this excites you more than managing a predefined roadmap, keep reading.
